About this site
Wadi Gimal lies along the Red Sea coast south of Marsa Alam, in Egypt's Red Sea Governorate, an area known for its fringing reefs and marine protected area of the same name. The coastline here is relatively undeveloped compared to areas farther north, with sites reached mainly by boat out of Marsa Alam.
