About This Trip
Spend a full day on the Red Sea aboard a comfortable shared cruise to Dolphin House, one of the most reliable wild-dolphin spots in Egypt. The route is built around real sightings rather than a fixed timetable — your crew adjusts each morning to where the pod has been moving.
Once the dolphins are located, the boat anchors at a respectful distance. If conditions allow, you slip into the water to swim alongside them — spinner dolphins are curious and often come close to snorkelers. If the swell or pod behavior isn't right for swimming, you'll still watch them leap and play around the boat from the deck.
The day includes two snorkeling stops at coral reefs along the route. Masks, fins, and life jackets are provided on board, and the crew briefs everyone — from absolute first-timers to experienced snorkelers — before each entry. A hot lunch is served on board, with soft drinks, water, tea and coffee included all day.
Hotel pickup is free from any Hurghada hotel; Makadi Bay, Soma Bay and El Gouna are available as paid add-ons. A relaxed, fairly priced way to spend a day on the water — perfect for families and first-time visitors who want the full Red Sea experience.
