What to expect

You are collected from your hotel in Hurghada and driven in an air-conditioned vehicle to the marina. There you board the boat for the day, and the crew is on hand to help. The boat stops at coral reefs where you can snorkel and see the fish, using the equipment provided. At Orange Bay Island you have time to swim or to relax on the sandy beach. Lunch is served on board, and tea and coffee are included. At the end of the day you are driven back to your hotel. The trip lasts about 9 hours and is offered in English, French, German and Italian. Transfers from Hurghada hotels are included; hotels in El Gouna, Makadi Bay, Safaga, Sahl Hasheesh and Soma Bay pay a supplement. Tips are not included. When you book, tell the operator your hotel and room number so pickup can be arranged. If you do not swim, you can relax on the island's beach instead of snorkelling.

Review for Hurghada: Orange Bay Island Snorkeling Trip by 🇷🇺 Дмитрий А.

Красивое место, вода просто нереального цвета. Фотографии получаются шикарные. На острове пробыли около двух часов, потом поплыли снорклить на риф. Команда лодки молодцы, старались развлекать всю дорогу. Однозначно стоит поехать.

Toller Ausflug, schöner Strand! Das Wasser ist fantastisch. Man muss sich darauf einstellen, dass sehr viele Touristenboote gleichzeitig dort anlegen, man ist also definitiv nicht alleine. Die Crew auf dem Boot war super lustig und das Essen mittags war absolut in Ordnung.

Review for Hurghada: Orange Bay Island Snorkeling Trip by 🇬🇧 John M.

A good, solid boat trip. The water at Orange Bay is truly like the Maldives, crystal clear and shallow. It does get very busy on the island, and you only get about 2 hours there, but it's enough to get some photos and swim. The snorkeling stop from the boat was great, gear provided was decent.
