El Gouna Park, also known as the Fish Farm behind the Egyptian House.

Many resident, wintering and migratory species,. This location was established in the early days of El Gouna to process the brackish water from the water desalination plant before it enters the lagoons.

Open from sunrise to sunset. Great for picnics.
