Beskrivning
The area between Port Ghalib and the Marsá Mubārak bay is part of the Egyptian desert, adjacent to the Red Sea coast. A single hotel is located in the center, called The Three Corners: Fayrouz Plaza Beach Resort. The hotel grounds are great for migrants during both spring and autumn migration and the garden can be full of surprises. Anything can show up here, like Trädnäktergal, grå flugsnappare and eksångare. Common (local) species that can be found here are palmduva, masktörnskata, Kohäger, ökenkorp and vitkronad stenskvätta. Also, grön biätare might show itself, perched in some trees.
The coastline, especially between the hotel grounds and Port Ghalib, are great for waders. Pairs of ökenpipare can be spotted near the shoreline. Other common species are styltlöpare, sandlöpare and roskarl. Often, singular or pairs of revhäger forage near the shoreline for fish. Mangrovehäger and gråfiskare often perch on the rocks. Fiskgjuse can pass overhead.
Further offshore, you can see flocks of vitögd mås and Sooty Gull. Also multiple tern species can be seen, like vitkindad tärna, skräntärna and iltärna. If you're lucky, a brun sula might show itself far in the distance.
Towards the south, the Marsá Mubārak bay is located. This bay is known for its many Green and Hawksbill (sea) turtles and sometimes even a Dugong.
