World nations concerns are to establish an international framework for the protection of the environment and sustainable development of coastal and marine resources where the coastal environment requires an integrated management of strong interactions among the various elements that sustain coastal areas, as they are focal areas of cities. Integrated coastal zone mManagement is a tool for a sustainable approach to managing the various challenges in coastal areas in Egypt where they are developed randomly and lack effective management systems that exploit resources fully.
