Half a day at a beach south of the Gorgonia, still within the Wadi Gimal park. It features a gently sloping sandy entrance and two unique and exciting coral reef fronts. On the south side, you can admire a sunken wreck about 20 years old, which, reaching about 3 meters from the surface, allows you to see how the coral reef has colonized this vessel. Lunch and relaxation in a wonderful mangrove lagoon, return by 3:30 PM.
