About Marsa Alam

Marsa Alam is a small resort town on Egypt's southern Red Sea coast, known for coral reefs, sea turtles and wild desert behind the shore.

The town lies on the Red Sea coast of Egypt's Eastern Desert, with long reefs just offshore and a thinly populated hinterland of bare mountains and dry valleys. Marsa Alam itself is small, and most visitors stay in resorts spread along the coast road, close to the water. The reefs are the draw, with sheltered bays that slope gently into clear water.

Top-ranked sights in Marsa Alam: Marsa Mubarak, Wadi el Gemal National Park, Sharm El Luli (Ras Hankorab).
