Salt Marina Ras El Hekma (often referred to simply as Salt) is a premier coastal destination in Ras El Hekma on Egypt's North Coast. Developed by Tatweer Misr, it is designed as a high-end, low-density resort community centered around a world-class yacht marina and extensive water features.
Here is a comprehensive overview of the project's details, master plan, and investment highlights.
Location & Accessibility
Strategically positioned to capitalize on the booming Ras El Hekma region, Salt offers excellent connectivity:
Exact Location: Km 185 on the Alexandria-Marsa Matrouh International Coastal Road.
Connectivity: Just 10 minutes from the New Fouka Road and under an hour from Alamein International Airport.
Neighbors: It is in close proximity to other luxury developments like Swanlake North Coast, Katameya Coast, and Mountain View Ras El Hekma.
The Master Plan & Design
Spanning 294.5 acres, Salt is master-planned by Gianluca Peluffo and emphasizes open spaces and waterfront living.
Instead of traditional flat rows, the architecture utilizes the area's natural topography. The terrain is terraced, rising from 9 to 33 meters above sea level, ensuring that almost all units enjoy unobstructed, panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea, the marina, or the sweeping crystal lagoons.
Key Amenities & Lifestyle
Tatweer Misr holds the distinction of obtaining the first marine license on the North Coast for this project, heavily influencing its upscale nautical lifestyle:
Yacht Marina: An international-standard marina capable of accommodating up to 65 yachts (50–80 feet).
Extensive Waterfront: An 830 to 850-meter pristine beachfront, complemented by a massive 25-acre Crystal Lagoon network.
Hospitality & Wellness: A 5-star bungalow hotel, serviced apartments, and a luxurious spa.
Recreation: A sophisticated clubhouse, a 36-meter riverwalk promenade, a 600-meter jogging/cycling track, and extensive commercial and retail zones.
