Wadi el Gemal, Egypt's third-largest national park, located approximately 50 kilometers south of Marsa Alam, offers unique natural landscapes far from mass tourism: Secluded islands lie off uninhabited coastal stretches where pristine reefs and mangrove forests alternate. Not far from the sea, the seemingly endless desert landscape of the national park begins, which is also home to a diverse array of animal and plant species. The national park's utmost concern is to sustainably protect and preserve these landscapes, as well as the culture of the local Bedouin tribe, the Ababda, which is being realized through many different dedicated projects. The Eco-Resort Gorgonia Beach is situated on the edge of the park in the coastal region. With its sustainable philosophy, the 5-star resort educates guests on how to respectfully interact with the nature that surrounds them.
