About this site
Buoy Coulee sits near the Moucha and Maskali Islands in the Gulf of Tadjoura, off the coast of Djibouti. This stretch of water lies at the southern entrance of the Red Sea system, where the gulf opens toward the Bab-el-Mandeb strait, and the islands themselves are a short boat ride from Djibouti City.
