Egypt remains the most significant market for Crystal Lagoons in the Middle East, with more than 46 projects at various stages of development and negotiation. Strengthening its presence in the country, the multinational innovation company has signed a new project: Mountain View Evia, a waterfront development in Ras El Hikma, a coastal town on the Mediterranean Sea.
A Crystalline Lagoon as the Centerpiece
At the heart of the development will be a 2.7-hectare crystalline lagoon, powered by Crystal Lagoons® technology. This stunning turquoise body of water will provide an idyllic setting for swimming and water sports, surrounded by pristine white sandy beaches. The luxury second-home community will feature 302 houses and 1,602 apartments, all designed to maximize views of the lagoon.
Although the project is located on the second and third waterfronts, the lagoon ensures that many residential units enjoy water views—something that would be impossible without Crystal Lagoons® technology.
Partnership with Mountain View
Mountain View Evia is part of Crystal Lagoons’ strategic partnership with Mountain View, one of Egypt’s largest real estate developers, with a portfolio of over 20 resorts. The project is included in a mega-contract between the two companies, encompassing five developments featuring eight crystalline lagoons that bring beachside living to various parts of Egypt.
In addition to Mountain View Evia, the partnership has already launched iCity New Cairo, which introduced the first Crystal Lagoons® amenity in Egypt’s capital.
Continued Success in Egypt
Egypt remains the largest market for Crystal Lagoons in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, with a record-breaking eight new projects signed in 2024 alone.
Crystal Lagoons has partnered with major developers such as Sodic, Madaar Development, and Q Developments on the country’s North Coast to create second-home destinations, including Caesar Bay, Azha North Lagoon, and Q North.
Looking ahead, Crystal Lagoons is in advanced negotiations to introduce Public Access Lagoons®, also known as PAL® complexes, in Egypt. These ticketed-access developments will revolutionize urban lifestyles by bringing beach life to the doorsteps of Egyptian households, offering an unmatched leisure experience in the country’s cities.
