Step off the marina and into the low hum of the Red Sea Dolphin; sunlight fractures across the deck as the boat slides away from Hurghada’s breakwater. The tour begins with a slow, hour-long drift over coral gardens visible through the semi-submarine’s panoramic viewing floor — schools of reef fish sweep like moving brushstrokes while ledges of coral rise and fall beneath the surface.
