El Nakheel Beach, a public resort on the Mediterranean coast of Northern Egypt, has reported a high frequency of drowning and fatality incidents, with rip currents identified as the primary cause. Many beachgoers possess insufficient swimming skills and experience, resulting in dangerous conditions even at relatively low rip current velocities. To manage the rip currents threats, a joint research study was implemented through the Joint Cooperation in Applied Research Programme – JCAR (safe coasts project) activities. Where a coupled flow-wave Delft3D-FM model was developed to simulate nearshore hydrodynamics in relation to the key conditions contributing to reported drowning incidents. The study evaluated five potential alternatives for reducing rip current hazards, determining that three of these options could effectively decrease flow velocities in the impacted area. A dispersion and diffusion study is ongoing to assess the impact of the proposed alternatives on water circulation within the study area. The final solution will be further tested in the wave basin at HRI.
