Introduction

Ras Muhammad National Park sits at the southern tip of Sinai and was Egypt's first marine protected area. The Red Sea's richest coral reefs, a rift freshwater spring and migratory birds gather here; mangroves meet cliffs — a top spot for snorkelling and ecology. Lookouts overlook where the Gulfs of Aqaba and Suez meet; the rift spring wells up fresh water in the sea.
