History
Eilat developed into Israel’s Red Sea gateway and dive center; marine reserves around the city were created to protect its reefs as tourism expanded.
Conservation
Reef protection measures limit anchoring and collection; divers are asked to avoid contact with coral, use reef-safe sunscreen, and follow guide instructions to reduce impact.
