The Ecotourism Master Plan for the southern coast of the Red Sea in Egypt, carried out in 1997 for the government of Egypt, comprised a careful zoning scheme, including strictly-protected, restricted, moderate tourism and semi-intensive tourism zones. The objective of the Master Plan was to provide a sustainable tourism development model for a strip of 215 km in the southern portion of the coast, very different from what has been occurring in the central part of the Red Sea littoral, where unplanned and uncontrolled tourism development is causing all kinds of environmental catastrophes. The Master Plan is being enforced, and includes the development of four ecolodges (Ceballos-Lascurain, 1997b).
