It is beautiful because it is so untouched. Very good for diving and snorkeling.

the area is sadly neglected and full of water bottles along the coastline. The water had poor visibility and entry is iffy so bring rock shoes to wear beneath fins. Need to be a strong confident swimmer didnt enjoy...little bird life..stagnant pools inland...but lots of land crabs !

We enjoyed this trip a bit scary on the camels but you can ride on the wagon if you want to. I enjoyed the camel cheese and the hot sand bread, the day was very interesting good food good company and very organised.
