Abu Dabbab Beach
Abu Dabbab Beach
In the heart of the Marsa Alam region, Abu Dabbab Bay is more than just a beach with its golden sands; it’s a world-renowned sanctuary for endangered marine life. Here, the opportunity to swim alongside the rare dugong, also known as the “sea cow,” is a unique experience that sets this location apart from any other.
Marine Life and Diving Opportunities
Abu Dabbab is not just a sanctuary for dugongs but also a haven for giant sea turtles, which use the shallow waters as a nesting site. The bay is a kaleidoscope of underwater marvels: harmless guitar sharks, vibrant reefs, a plethora of beautiful fish, an intriguing shipwreck, and a swim-through canyon with underwater caves. The bay’s accessibility from the beach makes it perfect for snorkelers and divers of all skill levels, though the more distant reefs are best left to the experienced, accompanied by professional guides.
