Summary

Marsa Mubarak is a large sheltered bay dive site in the southern Red Sea near Marsa Alam, featuring extensive coral gardens, seagrass meadows and isolated coral pinnacles rising from a sandy bottom. It is known for abundant marine life, with green sea turtles commonly feeding in the seagrass and dugongs occasionally seen, making wildlife encounters a key attraction. Dives are boat-accessed via a mooring buoy with entry and exit from a dive boat; common routes include a shallow reef garden around the main mooring, a drift along the northern reef back toward the boat, and dives in the central seagrass zone. Depths range from about 2 to 26 meters, currents are minimal to mild, visibility is very good (often tens of meters) and water temperatures are warm, usually in the mid-20s °C year-round.
