Alexandria considered to be one of the most tourist destinations in Egypt. This city was founded by Alexander the Great in 332 B.C to be the capital of Egypt in the Greco Roman Period. Alexandria is also one of the largest cities on the Mediterranean coast. It possesses many different tourist and archaeological attractions. Tzhese tourist and archaeological attractions are threatened by the danger of climate changes. Especially on the sites that are located nearby the coast of the sea, such as Shatbi tombs, Anfushi necropolis, Ras el Tin Palace, as well as Bibliotheca Alexandrina Museum. The city is suffering from the negative effect of the climate change since ancient times as some sites are submerging in the area of Abu Qir and the Eastern port area, that are filled now with sunken antiquities. It is a sad fact that Egypt occupies the third place on the list of countries most affected by the climate change, and Alexandria is one of the highest world's coastal megacities that are at risk from Sea Level Rise (SLR) and coastal surges. Hence, the idea of this research came to study the impact of climate changes on the sustainability of tourism activity in Alexandria. This study aims to define the phenomenon of climate changes and its impact on the activity of tourism in the city. It sheds light on the efforts made by the state and tourism agencies to deal with this phenomenon and reducing its severity.
