Corel Reef
Coral reefs are one of Nature´s masterpieces, as well as the main reason for diving
the Red Sea. The survival of the reef depends on an intricate balance between all
components from the tiny polyps which build the calcium carbonate exoskeleton of
the reef, to its great pelagic visitors. Each fin-stroke, each unwary movement of
the diver may raise a cloud of sediment or worse still, break off a coral branch
which will take years to repair.
In order to protect the reef, and to raise divers awareness of their ecological
impact, certain areas were designated National Parks by the Egyptian authorities
such as ( Ras Mohamed & Nabq).
