The yacht slips away from Hurghada’s marina and the city’s heat thins into open water; the Red Sea spreads like a bright, bristling blue that dares you to dive in. Within an hour you’ll see low white sand and the squat profile of Hula Hula—often called Paradise Island—where powdery shore meets shallow reef. Palm shadows move across the sand; the boat’s crew calls the group ashore for an hour and a half to two hours of island time.

Bring reef‑safe sunscreen
The Red Sea’s coral is fragile—use reef‑safe sunscreen and reapply after swimming to protect marine life.
Pack water shoes
Sand is soft but seabeds can be rocky; water shoes protect feet when entering and exiting the island.
Prevent seasickness
Take motion‑sickness meds 30–60 minutes before departure if you’re prone to nausea—the bay can be choppy.
Reserve morning slots
Morning departures usually offer calmer seas and better underwater visibility for snorkeling.
Reef‑safe sunscreen
