The Red Sea, Egypt, is famous for its vibrant soft corals, which create some of the most stunning underwater landscapes. Unlike hard corals, soft corals are flexible, swaying gracefully with the currents, adding a dynamic beauty to the reef. These corals, such as Dendronephthya and Sinularia, come in a range of colors, including brilliant pinks, purples, oranges, and yellows, making the Red Sea’s reefs a kaleidoscope of life.\n\nSoft corals are found in both shallow and deeper waters, thriving in the warm, clear conditions of the Red Sea. They provide vital habitat for a variety of marine life, including small fish, invertebrates, and other reef organisms, offering shelter and feeding grounds. Their soft, intricate structures also help protect the reef by contributing to the biodiversity that supports the entire ecosystem.\n\nThe soft corals of the Red Sea are often seen alongside schools of colorful fish, creating a mesmerizing and tranquil underwater scene. Popular dive sites like Ras Mohammed National Park, Elphinstone Reef, and Tiran Island are known for their stunning coral gardens. For divers and snorkelers, the Red Sea’s soft corals offer an unforgettable experience, showcasing the beauty and diversity of marine life.

Detail of a Sea Whip. Soft corals are sessile, they cannot hide or run away from predators or space competitor. Instead, they produce a range of chemical substances, which effectively deter predators, prevent overgrowth by neighbours or fouling organisms. \nThe terms «sea fan» and «sea whips» describe the shape, but they are both Octocorallia. «Sea fans»or «gorgonians» are Octocorallia with a fan-shaped morphology, contrasting them with unbranched species, which they generally call «sea whips». In science there is no distinct dividing line between soft corals and gorgonians. \nTriton Bay, Indonesia \n3°54'52.062 S 134°7'21.384 E at 10m depth
