With Makadi being built as a large complex I think there would be significant benefit to the area if a public beach was designated nearby. This would add to the land values and allow the government to sell more land behind the resorts to be developed - a winning formula for everyone.
Is there any way we can suggest this to the relevant authorities?
It is interesting that future owners think the authorities have any imput into each location that is being built. As you can see from my earlier Google map, Makadi Bay is a project in progress. One of hundreds competing for funding along 2000km of Egypt's coastline. It has taken nearly thirty years to become a tourist destination for developing, as a residential investment, only the last five years. It will possibly take another thirty to join all the hotel resorts with projects nearby in order to call it a highly attractive City.
If anyone opens Google Earth to see how far these projects stretch you will see vast distances between attractions. Good Hotel Resorts create their own facilities, jetties and beaches. Residential projects may not have these luxuries so think ahead. Please try to think logically before investing.
Beaches are made by the companies who get value from it (as a business.) When promenades and boulevards evolve you might find authorites taking advantage like in Sahl Hasheesh and Hurghada, and the busy Sharm El Sheikh. Till then Orascom's Makadi Bay project will remain just another part of the jig-saw of projects waiting for progress to catch up with it.
