FAQ
I can't swim well — can I still join?
Yes. We provide buoyancy vests and one of our crew stays in the water with non-confident snorkelers. Many of our happiest guests are first-time-in-the-sea adults.
What's included in the €45?
Hotel pickup, mask/snorkel/fins, floatation vest, two reef stops, a hot lunch, soft drinks, and transfer back. Tips are optional and diving camera rental is €20/day.
Are there divers on the same boat?
Usually no — snorkeling trips run on dedicated snorkel days so we can pick calmer, shallower sites. On mixed days we'll tell you at booking.
What's the cancellation policy?
Free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure. Weather cancellations by us are refunded or rebooked at no cost.

Dive sites you may visit
Site choice depends on the day's wind, swell, and your group's level.
Abu Ramada North
The gentler twin of Abu Ramada South — calmer current, shallower reef, ideal for newly-certified Open Water divers and underwater photographers.
Abu Hashish Lagoon
A protected sandy lagoon inside the Abu Hashish reef system — flat, calm, and packed with critters. Our favourite spot for buoyancy training and macro photography.
Gota Abu Ramada
Nicknamed 'The Aquarium' for good reason — the densest, most riotous fish life of any easy reef in the Hurghada area. The first dive every visiting photographer asks for.
