Tiran Island sits at a strategic junction of the Red Sea; its channels have been important maritime routes and have influenced regional trade and security over centuries.

Hydrate before boarding
Drink water before pickup and bring a refillable bottle—dehydration increases seasickness and fatigue on long boat days.
Manage seasickness early
If you’re prone to motion sickness, take medication the night before and again an hour before departure; ginger or acupressure bands help some travelers.
Protect the reef
Use reef-safe sunscreen and avoid touching coral—coral is fragile and slow-growing, and contact harms reef ecosystems.
Arrive with basic swim comfort
No certification is required but you should be comfortable in open water and able to follow an instructor’s directions.
Mask & snorkel
A good-fitting mask improves visibility and comfort during surface time and while learning to dive.
Reef-safe sunscreen
Protect skin from strong sun and reduce harm to coral by choosing a reef-safe formula.
summer
Light windbreaker or rash guard
Useful between dives when wind and spray make the boat feel cool.
spring
Travel towel & dry bag
A quick-dry towel and dry bag keep valuables safe and help you change comfortably after the day on deck.
