ECO Camping Ras Mohamed

BEDAWI ECO CAMPING RAS MOHAMED

Our Eco Camping is set up in one of the most beautiful bays of the National Park Ras Mohamed, close to the Turtle Bay, on a sheltered beach with coral reefs teeming with life. It is ideal for novice and advanced snorkeling and free-diving.

The communal Bedouin tent provides shade and shelter during the day. The comfortable Bedouin sit is perfect to hang out and chill, with thick cotton mattresses, pillows, back support and low tables. The food is served on the high tables and chairs. Get ready for glamping Bedouin style!

The fresh food is daily transported to the Eco Camping and is prepared for you on the spot.

We serve 3 fresh prepared meals a day (lunch and dinner are hot meals). If you have any dietary needs, mention this in the reservation form, to see if we can see to your needs.

Hot beverages and cooled soft drinks and bottled water are available on site. Upon request we prepare you a fresh Mocha Espresso or fresh fruit juice.  

We don't serve alcohol but you are free to bring your own alcoholic beverages.

The Eco Camping is equipped with solar panels, a fridge, freezer and you can recharge mobiles, laptops, etc. during the day by USB or a regular outlet.

In the evening the camp site is mainly lit by soft lights (to not disturb the turtles and wildlife) and this way you can fully enjoy the stars.

We welcome you with a drink, show you your tent, explain how things work at the camp and you make yourself at home.

Our Bell tents have 3 air vents in the top which assure the flow of fresh air, if you open the windows and door, which are all fitted with fly screen. (We rarely see mosquitos). For those who fear 'creepy crawlers', it is good to know the tents can be fully closed off with zippers.

Our cotton Bell-tents are equipped with a rug, comfortable memory-foam mattresses with clean bedding, soft pillows and if needed extra warm blankets. One tent can have a twin bed or a double bed and upon request we add a third bed (f.e. for a child).

We have beach showers with fresh water, a tap to wash your hands and our 'Lovable Loo' (a comfortable eco toilet with toilet paper and wet tissues) is set up in a separate tent with a chair and a mirror, so you can also use it to change your clothes. All the fresh water is carried in, so we appreciate you sparingly make use of the water.

The warm lunch is served at 1 PM and afterwards you can relax, walk along the beach, sunbath, swim or enjoy snorkeling or free-diving in the bay.

After you've enjoyed the sunset, dinner will be served on the beach (depending weather conditions). Afterwards the Bedouin coffee (with cardamom) and Bedouin tea (with local desert mint) will be prepared and served by the campfire (depending weather conditions) or by the stove during winter.

You enjoy the (shooting) stars or the (full) moon, both create a great atmosphere on the beach.

You will see lots of reef fish, rays and at night desert foxes often visit the camp. Lucky guests meet the dolphins, see the sea turtles lay eggs on the beach at night during the Spring or the baby turtles hatching, end of Summer.

At night nature comes alive and you can go on a nightly beach walk, when there is low tide and little moonlight, to discover things. 

Around sunrise, the light is pink to purple and you can see the amazing Ghost Crabs go about their business on the beach and some get to see dolphins swimming in the bay at dawn. All magical moments to take home with you.
