Where snorkeling trips go
Trips from Hurghada usually head to the reefs around the Giftun islands, often with beach time at Orange Bay, or north to Shaab El Erg, the reef known as Dolphin House. Each tour page lists its stops.
Tips for first-timers
- Try your mask in shallow water first, and ask the crew to adjust it if it leaks.
- Wear a life jacket or use a float if you're not a confident swimmer.
- Keep your fins away from the coral and don't stand on the reef.
- A rash vest protects your back from sunburn while you're face-down in the water.
