    StandoutRich in charismatic marine life

    Marsa Mubarak often gets attention for its resident dugong, but we think the real highlight is the consistent dolphin sightings. We’ve seen pods of bottlenose and long-beaked dolphins here on multiple visits, usually playful and curious. It’s a shallow, sheltered bay, making it a good spot for newer divers or those looking for a relaxed encounter away from strong currents.
