Coral Nature Reserve – At the northern tip of the Red Sea's 2,800-mile coral reef, you only need a scuba mask to see exotic fish swimming through coral of every color and shape. The Moses Rock is a large coral formation that especially attracts fish. |

 Coral World – With an Underwater Observatory built 18 feet
beneath the sea in the middle of the reef, you can see the fish and coral
without getting wet. There's also shark and turtle pools and a snack bar.
