Ras Mohammed


Ras Mohammed Ras Mohammed is one of the most beautiful National Parks in Egypt. The name literally means "Muhammad's Head", where "head" in this case means "promontory".

Ras Mohammed - is a National Park in Egypt, on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula, on the banks of the Bay of Suez in the west and Gulf of Aqaba to the east.

When Sinai Peninsula returned to Egypt, Ras Muhammad was reported for protection against fishing and other human activities.

Some of the fishing methods, such as using dynamite and knives were also affecting the coral reef and the fish population.

In 1983, the Agency for the Egyptian Environment (EEA) established an area as a marine reserve for the protection of marine and terrestrial wildlife.

The park was also established to protect against urban sprawl from Sharm el-Sheikh and other coastal development.

There is a saying in the area that the name was created because the side view of the cliff outline looks like a profile of a bearded man's face, with a horizontal layer disk providing a nose and a bearded chin.

Ras Mohammed is one of the most beautiful National Parks in Egypt.

The coral reef is the shape of framing types and hermatypic. It exist along the coast around Ras Mohammad near to the shoreline.

More than 220 coral species are found in the Ras Mohammad area, 125 of them with soft corals. Coral reefs are located 50 to 100 cm under the surface of the sea, and they have a width of 30 to 50 m, in most places. Although in some places on the west coast, the coral reef is 8 to 9 km wide.

This area is home to more than 1,000 species of fish, 40 species of star fish, 25 species of sea urchins, over 100 species of molluscs and 150 species of crustaceans.
