Snorkeling trips in Hurghada

You don't need to dive to experience the Red Sea's colours. Our snorkeling trips take you by boat to Hurghada's best shallow reefs and islands - Giftun Island, Orange Bay and Dolphin House - where warm, calm, crystal-clear water sits right above gardens of coral and clouds of tropical fish. Trips are relaxed full days, perfect for families, couples and anyone who wants the reef without the tank.

Every trip includes snorkel gear (mask, fins and a buoyancy vest), lunch and soft drinks on board, and free hotel pickup. The crew helps first-timers and non-swimmers feel comfortable, and there's always time to relax on a white-sand beach. At Dolphin House there's even a chance to snorkel near wild spinner dolphins.

Snorkeling is also the gentlest way to introduce children and nervous swimmers to the reef, and many of our snorkelers decide to try scuba on the same trip. The calm, shallow sites around Hurghada stay warm from spring to late autumn, so there is rarely a bad time to go.

Common questions

Do I need to know how to swim to snorkel?

No. Buoyancy vests are provided and the reefs are shallow and calm, so non-swimmers and children can enjoy the trips with the crew's help.

Is snorkeling good for children and families?

Yes - our island and reef trips are a family favourite, with shallow water, a sandy beach and plenty of fish to see. Gear is provided in children's sizes too.

Will I see dolphins?

On the Dolphin House (Sha'ab El Erg) trip there's a good chance to see wild spinner dolphins, though as wild animals sightings can never be guaranteed.
