The boat slips off the Hurghada marina breakwater as the morning light sharpens the Red Sea into a sheet of glass. On this private speedboat tour, the engine hums beneath a quick breeze and the shoreline peels away until Orange Bay's pale sand and shallow reef appear like a bright punctuation on the blue.

Bring reef-safe sunscreen
The Red Sea's corals are sensitive; use reef-safe sunscreen and cover up with a rash guard to protect both skin and reef.
Wear secure water shoes
Boarding from marina steps and walking on shell-sand at shallow reefs is easier with sturdy water shoes.
Hydrate and pace yourself
An eight-hour day in sun and sea can deplete fluids—drink before and after snorkeling and pace activity between stops.
Bring a waterproof bag and ID
A small dry bag keeps phones and documents safe on a small private boat; bring your passport copy for transfers.
Rash guard or swim shirt
