Things to Do in Ras Mohammed: Land and Sea

Above the water, the park has rugged desert, mangroves and unusual rock formations. Below the surface are coral reefs with hundreds of fish and coral species. The park lies where the Gulf of Aqaba meets the Gulf of Suez, and it is well known among divers and snorkelers.

Must-See Spots on Land

  • The Magic Lake: A saltwater lake that locals say has healing properties. The turquoise water against the sand is a lovely sight.
  • The Mangrove Forest: Rare in a desert, these salt-tolerant trees create their own small ecosystem and make a nice photo stop.
  • The Crack (or Earthquake Crack): A long split in the ground, said to come from an old earthquake, worth a short look.

The Wonders Beneath the Waves

Ras Mohammed is best known for its diving and snorkeling sites.

  • Shark and Yolanda Reef: A famous dive site with steep drop-offs and the remains of a wreck. It suits experienced divers.
  • Anemone City: A reef with many anemones and clownfish, good for both divers and snorkelers.
