Description

Porta d'ingresso al parco nazionale di Ras Mohammed Gateway to the national park of Ras Mohammed Il Parco Nazionale di Ras Mohammed è una riserva naturale di mare e di terra. Quest'area protetta di 480 km2 si trova nel punto di incontro del Golfo di Suez con quello di Aqaba, all'estremità meridionale del Sinai. L'arido terreno desertico di dune di sabbia, pianure di ghiaia, coralli fossili e montagne di granito, ospita numerose rare specie animali: gazzelle Dorcas, stambecchi della Nubia e volpi rosse. Facili da osservare sono gli uccelli residenti, quali sterne, aironi, gabbiani e falchi pescatori. Migliaia di cicogne bianche passano per Ras Mohammed ogni anno, durante la loro migrazione verso sud, a settembre/ottobre, e al ritorno verso nord, ad aprile/maggio. Circa 85 specie di flora vivono nel parco, incluse le mangrovie. In abbagliante contrasto con il panorama, apparentemente desolato, del deserto, l'ecosistema sottomarino è una magnifica esplosione di vita: 200 specie di coralli (125 delle quali sono coralli molli), 1000 specie di pesci, 40 specie di stelle di mare, 25 di ricci, 100 di molluschi, 150 di crostacei e 2 specie di tartarughe: la tartaruga verde e la tartaruga a becco di falco. Ras Mohammed National Park is a natural reserve of sea and land. This protected area of 480 km2 is located in the three Gulf of Suez with that of Aqaba, the southern end of Sinai. The arid desert terrain of sand dunes, gravel plains, fossilized corals and granite mountains, is home to many rare animal species: Dorcas gazelle, Nubian ibex and red fox. Are easy to observe the resident birds such as terns, herons, gulls and ospreys. Thousands of white storks pass through Ras Mohammed each year during their southward migration in September / October and back north in April / May. Approximately 85 species of fauna live in the park, including mangroves. In stark contrast to the landscape, seemingly desolate desert, the ecosystem is a magnificent underwater explosion of life: 200 species of corals (125 of which are soft corals), 1000 species of fish, 40 species of sea stars, 25 urchin, 100 molluscs, 150 species of crustaceans and 2 turtles: the green turtle and the turtle beak of a hawk.
