Habiba Organic Farm & Beach Lodge

September 11, 2013
Habiba Organic Farm & Beach Lodge

Organic farms are already special in our books, but couple organic farms with community development and you’ve got our full affection. Habiba Organic Farm and Beach Lodge  in Nuweiba was founded in 2007 to support the community of South Sinai and fertilize the desert with the help of NGOs and universities.

Maged EL Said has lived in South Sinai since 1989 and established Habiba Village in 1994, followed by the organic farm in 2007 and later on the eco-lodge. Now, almost 11 years on, Habiba has become a training hub and a role model for the community on sustainable development and organic desert farming. ??Habiba’s Palm Date Foundation aims to ?create sustainable, evironmentally friendly income for the local community. The project focuses on expanding palm date agriculture in Nuweiba and encouraging the locals to contribute to the project, focusing on micro-finance.?

Head out to the lodge for an organic, eco-friendly, ethnic and relaxing Eid holiday

?They have an all-green beach lodge where you can eat from the communal organic farm, relax on pristine beaches and meet and greet the locals; best bit is, profits go towards developing the local community and expanding the farming project.  You can even learn to dive. You can stay at the lodge or set up a tent on the beach and use the shared kitchen and restaurant. The lodge’s services include laundry, room service, breakfast in the room and meeting and banquet facilities.

Best bit for us? Pets are allowed. Pack your bags and head out to Habiba for the upcoming Eid holidays.
