Put your face in the Red Sea and a whole coral world appears beneath you. This relaxed boat day from Hurghada sails to the protected reefs of Giftun Island, with two snorkeling stops and lunch on board.
Overview
Few things beat the moment you put your face in the Red Sea and the reef appears beneath you: coral gardens in every color, schools of small fish flashing in the sunlight and a quiet world that is entirely its own. This relaxed boat day from Hurghada takes you to the reefs and beaches around Giftun Island, a protected area known for clear water and healthy coral.
After a hotel pickup and a short drive to the marina, you board your boat and sail out to sea with the crew and your guide. You make two snorkeling stops at different reefs, with a short safety briefing before you enter the water, and a mask, snorkel and fins provided for you. A freshly prepared lunch is served on board while the boat moves between spots, and you finish with time on a sandy beach or on the sundeck.
The trip suits families, couples and groups of friends, and it is friendly to beginners as well as confident swimmers, because the crew is experienced and happy to help with equipment and tips. There is no need to be an expert, only to bring your curiosity.
