The Exodus route - Pi Hahiroth or Yam Suph (the Sea of Reeds) was the Rawayah Lagoon in Dungunab bay
Watch the whole Youtube video “Exodus route 1 Locating the Red sea crossing, Pi Hahiroth, Migdol, Baal Zephon, Shur, Marah, & Elim”.
Pi Hahiroth is translated by the Strong’s concordance as both “mouth of the gorges'' or "place where sedge grows”. While sedges may be found growing in almost all environments, many are associated with wetlands like lagoons. Almost due east of Semna is located a wetland or lagoon named Dungunab Bay. Its mid part, the Rawayah Lagoon, is surrounded by coral reefs. I believe the Rawayah Lagoon is the Biblical Pi Hahiroth where the Israelis camped just before crossing the Red Sea. Also, both sedges and reeds are grass like plants, and according to Exodus 15:4 the place where Pharaoh’s choiced captains drowned was in the “sea of reeds” (Hebrew: Yam Suph). This implies they drowned near Pi Hahiroth or the Rawayah Lagoon from a tsunami which resulted when the massive side by side walls of water suddenly collapsed. In contrast, Pharaoh and the rest of his army drowned “into the sea” (Hebrew: bayyam), implying they died in the middle of the Red Sea.
