Wadi el Gamal National Park

Red Sea Governorate, Egypt

4.5 (0)

Overview

National park and protected area in Egypt. It lies in Egypt's desert belt, best visited between October and April.

Why visit: Ras Muhammad's reefs, Wadi Al-Hitan's fossil whales and the Sinai mountains — protected landscapes that are nothing like the Nile Valley.

Things to do

›Go with a licensed operator — several reserves require one
›Bring everything you need; there are no shops inside
›Start early for the wildlife and the cooler hours
›Stay on marked tracks; the desert damage from off-roading is permanent
