Abu Dabab, also spelled Abu Dabbab and Abou Dabbab, is one of the most popular beaches in Marsa Alam. Not only is the coral reef accessible from shore the shallow lagoon harbors a sea grass bed. Spot green sea turtles. Watch tropical fish. Catch sight of a dugong, a large gray sea creature that eats sea grass and feeds its young. And if the kids aren’t content with snorkeling dive the reef both day and night. Spanish dancers and white tip reef sharks together with a shipwreck and loads of coral - boulder, mountain, rose and salad - are the main attractions at this easy dive site.
