Hurghada Snorkeling trips

A Hurghada snorkeling trip is the premier way to explore the world-class marine biodiversity of the Red Sea. With crystal-clear visibility and warm temperatures year-round, these excursions provide an up-close look at some of the most vibrant coral reefs on the planet.

Exploring Giftun Island National Park

The most popular destination is the Giftun Island National Park, home to the iconic Orange Bay and Paradise Island. These locations are famous for their shallow turquoise waters and white sandy beaches, often compared to the Maldives.

For a more exclusive vibe, many Hurghada snorkeling tours now include stops at Mahmya Island or the secluded Magawish Island.

Swimming at the Dolphin House

A highlight for many is a trip to the Dolphin House Hurghada (Shaab El Erg). This protected lagoon is a natural sanctuary for wild spinner dolphins, offering a high chance of a peaceful encounter in their natural habitat.

A typical snorkeling boat trip includes professional gear, two distinct reef stops, and a fresh buffet lunch. You can expect to see colorful clownfish, rays, and sea turtles while enjoying the relaxed atmosphere of the open sea.

Best things to do for families

Whether you book a private boat trip or a group excursion, the best time to depart is early morning for the calmest conditions.

Most tours provide life jackets and expert guides, ensuring a safe experience for both beginners and advanced snorkelers.

For those who prefer to stay dry, the Hurghada semi-submarine offers a stunning view of the reefs through panoramic windows.

These shorter trips are an excellent alternative for families with young children or those wanting to see the marine life without getting in the water.
