It is a natural pool, made of a unique rock formation,
which is believed by the area inhabitants to have been shaped by a meteorite,
hitting the coast, located 8 kms south Marsa Alam, 20 minutes from Port Ghalib.
The pool, several meters in diameter, is shaped like an eye filled with the
turquoise blue waters of the Red Sea. The pool is around 8-10 meters depth.
The “Al-Nayzak” lake, which has been able to attract
hundreds of tourists, from different nationalities, to practice diving and
swimming, because of its environmental safety. With a total area of over 5,000
meters, Al-Nayzak Lake is characterized by its pure water and its depth, and
most importantly, it is from the sea currents, which makes it safe to dive,
especially in the winter, where the water is warm for a natural pool in case of
tides.
The real geological scientific opinion behind the
transformation of this place was that it is a natural lake that has been formed
from 3 main factors which was: A sea stream heading towards the coast, the
coral reef barrier which is called “Al-Dahar” and basically considered a
natural defense from Coastal erosion due to collision of marine currents and
waves, which is in this area lower than the natural length with few centimeters
which lead to the penetration of the currents from above to the coast that lead
to the 3rd factor which is The process of slaughtering the beach easily done
from the landing of soil surface and removal of calcareous components as the
nature of the soil is ready for the occurrence of destruction within it. As per
the Egyptian geologist Dr. Mohamed abdo, the idea of forming this place was
ruled out as a meteorite many years ago.
