Birds of the Red Sea

About us

Birds of the Red Sea is a voluntary environmental project by Georgina Cole, a British ex-pat who has been living in El Gouna since 2004 and began studying the birds in 2019. 

The goals are to raise awareness about the resident birds and the bi-annual migration that passes between Africa and Europe in the Spring and Autumn.
