المستخلص: Egypt is endowed with a natural heritage as rich as its cultural heritage. The country’s future is dependent on the wise and sustainable use of its natural resources. Ecotourism is in the core of the tourism development strategy in Egypt and there is considerable effort to promote such type of tourism. Ecotourism is one of the most rapidly expanding forms of tourism, with an estimated growth rate of one of the largest industries in the world. Siwa Oasis is foreseen to be one of the major destination for ecotourism not only in Egypt but also worldwide and it is the most mysterious of all of Egypt's Oases; its history has been formed by many civilizations.

This paper is an attempt to highlights and identifies the major potentials in Siwa Oasis as well as figures out the opportunities and hurdles that preclude its development. The paper uses descriptive and analytical methodology and it embraces a mixed strategy that is needed to investigate different components of the study.
