Aboard a low-slung yacht leaving the Marsa Alam marina, the Red Sea opens like a bright, breathing plain — blue that dares you to dive in. Guests are welcomed with a briefing and fitted with masks and life vests before the boat slips past fishing skiffs and out toward Samadai Reef, the area known as Dolphin House. The reef sits on a shallow plateau where coral bommies and sea fans rise from clear water and resident spinner dolphins often thread the surface.
