El Aruk reef
Description:
El Aruk Reef (Egypt, Hurghada) is an amazing and unique place located in the north direction from Gota Abu Ramada. The journey time from the city by taxi or personal car along the highway will be about an hour, which provides a comfortable and quite secluded rest.
The sea floor around the reef is covered with numerous ergs that vaguely resemble mushroom glades in the forest. The main number of ergs is observed in the southwestern and northeastern parts. Locals call these places Shaab Kweiss, Aruk Tweil or The Magic Mushrooms, which means “Mystic Mushrooms”.
