The Ghoubbet al-Kharab (قبة الخراب, "the Gulf of the Demons") is a Djiboutian cove separated from the Gulf of Tadjoura by a violent current. Ghoubbet al-Kharab is surrounded by mountains and cliffs 600 meters high, as well as by the Ardoukôba volcano which separates it from Lake Assal. It is very deep (200 meters) and hosts many fish and sharks that grow in the strong gulf currents. This luxuriance attracts fishermen who make the journey from Djibouti City. The cove is visited by divers and scientists like Commander Cousteau.

The Ghoubbet al-Kharab can be up to one meter different from the sea level, because of the narrowness of the pass, but also the tides and winds.

In the middle of the Ghoubbet al-Kharab are two volcanic islands: the Devil's Islands.
