Hurghada: Orange Bay Yacht, Snorkel, Breakfast, Lunch & Drinks

Discover the Hurghada Orange Bay — an extraordinary adventure designed to bring you the authentic beauty, rich history, and timeless magic of Egypt with expert local guidance.

Escape the crowds and experience the Red Sea in style on this small-group yacht cruise. The 5-hour trip duration excludes pickup and drop-off, with hotel transfers available from Hurghada. Start your morning with convenient pickup from your Hurghada hotel, then board a comfortable yacht and sail across turquoise waters toward Orange Bay or Magawish Island. Enjoy a tasty breakfast onboard while taking in stunning coastal views during the 40-minute cruise to the snorkeling site—perfect for fueling up before your underwater adventure. Upon arrival, you’ll have 15 minutes to prepare your snorkeling gear before diving into crystal-clear waters for approximately 30 minutes of snorkeling. Explore vibrant coral reefs and colorful marine life, including parrotfish and angelfish. With a little luck, you may even spot a sea turtle. Next, cruise to the island for a relaxing 1-hour visit. Soak up the sun on pristine beaches, take a refreshing swim, or simply unwind and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. With a small group, you’ll have more space, personalized attention from the crew, and a more relaxed experience. Afterward, enjoy a 45-minute cruise back to Hurghada, followed by a comfortable transfer to your hotel. Everything is arranged—just sit back, relax, and enjoy the Red Sea.
