This natural reserve is truly stunning and beautiful, a unique place in the world! I hope to return soon because the people are genuinely kind and courteous. The only issue is pollution. I believe the park entrance fee could be increased from 5€ to 10/15€ per person to preserve the area and support the local population, with one condition: completely eliminate plastic (by recycling it) as it is unfortunately everywhere at the moment. I hope that measures are taken soon because the place is truly enchanting and worth preserving for the locals and humanity.

This place offers a fascinating, out of this world moment if you are in the vicinity. An SUV and a local tour guide is a must, possibly combined with some of the best shore-accessible Red Sea snorkeling and diving stretching 30 km south of Marsa Alam.

Diving around the island of wadi Elgemal is an exceptional day diving trip , our group of 8 divers We were fortunate to encounter both sharks and dolphins during our dive trip . Our first dive was a long drift around the island, revealing a mesmerizing underwater world in the clear waters. The vibrant coral reefs teemed with colorful fish and captivating sea creatures,. The exceptional visibility allowed us to fully appreciate the diversity and beauty of the underwater ecosystem. As a diving instructor I had the privilege of Guiding 7 clients on this incredible trip, and the highlight of our trip was an encounter with 2 oceanic white tip shark. Witnessing these magnificent creatures while diving around the island was a breathtaking experience. Swimming alongside these graceful and powerful animals in shallow waters, just 5 meters deep at the end of our dive, was truly inspiring. Our top priority was to maintain a sense of wonder and respect for these incredible creatures. To top off our day of adventure, we had the joy of snorkeling with dolphins on our way back to the boat. This added another layer of excitement and wonder to our already incredible day. Super recommendation for that pure place

This park is unreal!! Beautiful water on the island, great spot for diving/snorkelling/fishing etc. This place is a must visit if you are visiting Marsa Alam. You won’t regret it. You have to go through a police check point by the bay at the beginning so make sure to bring your IDs and don’t take photos cos it’s prohibited. Once you pass the check point you’re okay.

An amazing national park. Here there're no resorts or abandoned buildings. The sea is fantastic BUT: The desert is an open air litter. Totally no respect on the environment. A lot of plastic on the desert and also in some beaches a lot of plastic from boat tour. PLEASE STOP THIS STUPID POLLUTION
