Visited via boat trip organised through Thomsons. Great day with bonus that we seen the Dugong although didn't get to swimwith it. Lovely bay, couple of large green turtles with Ramora(?) fish living under its shell. Reef near where boat moored was okay, some nice coral and reasonable variety of fish when we visited.

Visited Marsa Mubarak on a snorkelling trip. Had a really lovely snorkel along the reef. Sadly didn't spot any turtles, but others did, we were just unlucky :-( Lovely sandy beach to lounge on after too. Definitely worth a visit for a few hours at least.

Beach is beautiful and the water was superb. Many turtles were feeding. The reef isn't in the best condition.

I spent only 2.5 hours in this place and i saw a dugong and the distance between me and the dugong was 15 cm !! Fourtnately i got a picture taken, the corals are also great. I recommend this place to any serious divers or snorkellers.

We visited Marsa Mubarak for half a day with taxi staying in front of the hotel that isnt built yet. I think we saw around 8-9 turtles and few other interesting stuff.

I visited this area on numerous occasions both to dive and snorkel and can confirm if done at the right time its totally amazing... There is no current due to being a sheltered bay and early in the morning offers great light conditions for photography... Its also quiet in the morning so getting some alone time with the turtles is... More

Very depressive and sad. Turtles gang bang and destroyed coral reefs. Never again. Egyptians destroy natural wealth.
