There are no sea cows on every beach, there are very few of them. They used to be in Abu da Babi. There are plenty of turtles now.
Dolphins don't swim in just one place either.
Consider Braika Bay, there were turtles, a very good beach, house reef.

Sea cows (Dugong) are afraid of people and can be seen in the bays, and then some succeed only after repeated trips from year to year. We got lucky the first time.
And we were lucky with turtles even in Safaga at the hotel beach.
I support elenako, reviews of Braika are very good.

Corals, Fish, Dugongs - completely different living creatures and there is no better one in one place
Dugongs and Turtles need grass.....there is no coral
Turtles are hawksbill (small coral) and large marine
The dugong is commonly observed in the bay of Abu Dabbab and Marsa Mubarak
There are big turtles
In others ...... very rarely
In Abu Dabbab he comes far from the shore - one must swim well and be patient
Hotels
Hilton Marsa Alam Nubian Resort - 800 meters from the bay 5 stars
El Malikia Abu Dabbab - this one right in the bay (bad)
Three corners Equinox - this one is slightly further from the bay, but there they also sometimes see a dugong. The hotel is normal, although 4 stars
There are no hotels in Marsa Mubarak, there are nearby - Three Corners Fayrouz Plaza
The hotel is excellent, the number of rooms is a bit old though.
From the hotel to the bay, a kilometer and a half - everyone goes there. The dugong is right next to the shore and there are also very large turtles.
But you have to walk ..... but not swim like in Abu Dabbab ....

Yes...more....
In addition, there are excursions to both bays - to Mubarak from the port of Ghalib on yachts
To Abu Dabbab - by bus
But the excursion ...... this is an excursion ... the probability of meeting a dugong is less and you will not spend $ 200 every day for a family excursion
As for dolphins ..... they live in the open sea. We saw at Three Corners.Fayrouz....5 minutes...they leave very quickly.
For dolphins, you need to go on an excursion from the extreme south of Marsa.
Sataya Reef
We sailed there with them for several hours.
The tour is organized by Olga Trekhina - she lives there in Marsa Alam ..... look on VKontakte
Well, corals and fish are the largest in the extreme south of mars alam ..... but there are no Dugongs
There is nothing in Braika corals ..... it’s true they are already dying .... but you won’t see Dugong Dolphins and Big Turtles there ... you have to go somewhere
In the three corners of Fayrouz there are dugong and turtles (very big) but if there is a storm.....there will be no corals. The hotel itself is not in the bay.
At Hilton marsa Alam - you can see everything, but you can not see it. It is necessary to swim FAR in the bay.

A couple of years ago we rested at the Kahramana Garden 4 hotel (2nd line) and there were also 2nd 5s on the shore - Kahramana Beach and Kalimera Habibi (they had one owner and a large territory). These hotels had a piece of beach in Abu Dabab Bay and there was a free bus from the hotel. About 10 huge turtles constantly lived in the bay. The beach in the bay was not closed because of the waves, and in early December it was stormy every day.

I visited Baraika 2 times, last autumn and this spring, I met turtles only this spring, in the morning hours, until 9 am, to the right of the bay above the reef, about 80 cm in diameter. Neighbors walked to the neighboring bay, about 2 km, and claimed that there were more turtles and a livelier reef. This is the territory of the Aurora Oriental Bay Marsa Alam /
