You step onto the moving boat and the Red Sea seems to breathe beneath you — a broad, glassy plane that dares you upward. Within minutes a colorful canopy puffs to life and the harness snugly secures you; then the boat surges and the coastline peels away as you climb. From 100+ meters above, coral edges, sandy spits and the pale wash of shallow reefs lay open like a map.

Check the weight limit
Operators typically cap combined weight at about 150 kg for safety — confirm during booking to avoid surprises.
Book morning slots
Calmer winds and smoother seas early in the day mean steadier flights and better visibility for photos.
Sun protection is a must
Bring a high-SPF sunscreen, polarized sunglasses, and a hat for the transfer; reflection from the sea intensifies UV exposure.
Secure loose items
Leave phones, jewelry, and loose hats in the transfer vehicle or use a wrist lanyard — items dropped in the sea are rarely recoverable.
Sunglasses with retainer
Reduces glare for better visibility and prevents loss during flight.
