Why Choose Marsa Alam?
Marsa Alam offers sandy beaches with a gentle entrance and special coral spots for diving. Beaches are free, clean, and close at 7 in the evening due to the nocturnal appearance of predatory fish. At the same time, feeding the fish is prohibited for the safety of tourists. The main advantage of Marsa Alam is its amazing underwater life, which is appreciated by European tourists. From here, you can observe dolphins, turtles, and coral reefs, something you won't find in Sharm-el-Sheikh or Hurghada.
