Tourism has been prioritized in the current developmental programs. The natural geographical potential is closely linked to the tourism development process in Port Said Governorate. Tourism depends on investing natural potential in recreational tourism activity, and the importance of the geographical location is highlighted in giving Port Said its rightful place on the tourist map and making it a local and international tourist pole. The study revolves around the possibility of utilizing Port Said's natural resources when selecting the most suitable locations for tourism development, relying on the informational expertise gained from studying natural characteristics, measurements, and standards. This process considers the qualitative and quantitative changes in the demand and supply of tourist services, the variety of tourist attractions, and the intense competition among different tourist destinations.
