Located on the pristine shores of Egypt's Red Sea, Marsa Alam is a haven for dive enthusiasts, sun worshippers, and nature lovers alike. Renowned for its stretches of powdery white beaches, warm turquoise waters and vibrant coral reefs teeming with marine life, Marsa Alam allows travelers to immerse themselves in the pure, untouched beauty of its surroundings. Aside from indulging in snorkeling and diving ventures, visitors explore the shimmering desert, embark on exciting camel rides, or observe the incredible sea turtles and dugongs that inhabit the region's waters. With its unique blend of adventure and tranquility, Marsa Alam presents an unforgettable experience in the heart of Egypt’s Eastern Desert.

I felt safe in the Marina area around the hotel—we were in Pickalbatros. We had a nice person, a diver, who helped us with shopping in the marina and made us feel even safer. We went diving; the fish there were even more colorful than the ones in Sharm El Sheikh. The food was good—though we did need to take meds, of course.
