About Ras El Bar and its history
A summer resort in Damietta Governorate where the Damietta branch of the Nile meets the Mediterranean at a point called the Lisan.
Ras Elbarr (Egyptian Arabic: رَاس اَلْبَرّ Rās el-Barr, IPA: [ɾɑːs elˈbɑɾː]), ("Cape of the Land") is a resort city in the Damietta Governorate of Egypt, on the Mediterranean Sea at the mouth of the Damietta Nile branch. There are approximately 25,000 permanent residents; during the summer peak holiday season, from July to September, the population expands to over 250,000.
Ras El Bar lies on a peninsula along the Mediterranean Sea, and it is bordered to the east by the Damietta Nile branch. The region of "Lessan" resides in the northernmost part of this peninsula. At this juncture, the Damietta Nile arm converges with the Mediterranean Sea, imparting a triangular shape to Ras El Bar.
The climate of Ras El Bar is classified as hot desert (BWh) by Köppen-Geiger system although tempered by the proximity to the Mediterranean Sea.
While Ras El Bar is within the Nile Delta, its sandy soils are due to predominant coastal processes with much of the city lying on the foreshore dune structures. Older portions of the city are in the natural levee of the Damietta river.
