Sažetak

Since 2016 steps towards the monitoring and conservation of marine turtles along the Egyptian Mediterranean coast were taken, to determine other possible nesting sites. A survey was implemented with the relevant stakeholders to identify possible nesting areas along the Egyptian Mediterranean coast from Port Said to El-Sallum. By the adoption of the National Action Plan for the Conservation of Marine Turtles in the Egyptian Mediterranean Coast, activities related to category (ii): management action, category (iii): research, and category (iv): capacity building were implemented. Monitoring and tagging programmes were established; protocols for sampling and genetic analyses were established, in addition to a survey of the relevant stakeholders. Training programmes were conducted at regional and national levels and then the national team was identified.
