Groundwater is virtually the only source of water supply to the north of the Sinai Peninsula. Quaternary aquifers are promising for organising reliable drinking water supply at the peninsula. Propagation conditions for Quaternary aquifers were characterised. Information was updated for all existing hydrogeological wells in the North Sinai area. Well logs for the development of the main Quaternary aquifers were compiled; statistical analysis of permeability parameter values for water-bearing rocks was carried out, based on which the zoning was identified according to the permeability coefficient values. Distribution of aquifers with significant thickness in Quaternary deposits is limited only to the coastal plain along the Mediterranean Sea. Based on testing of 52 wells, all Quaternary deposits are characterised by very high permeability coefficients, which on average are tens and even hundreds of metres per day. Analysis of correlation dependences between the permeability coefficient and the depth of the tested wells showed that there is no unambiguous dependence for all Quaternary deposits or for each of the individual samples. Consequently, ranges of change in the permeability coefficient values for various Quaternary sediments are determined not by the geostatic pressure, but by the packing density of loose rocks and degree of their secondary cementing. Based on the conducted zoning of the area according to the permeability coefficient, the prime areas for underground water production for each aquifer were identified. Performed studies do the groundwork for water that is resource that is more efficient planning and management.
