Bring reef-safe sunscreen
The Red Sea’s corals are sensitive—use reef-safe sunscreen and apply before boarding to protect marine life.
Bring or fit a personal mask
Snorkel equipment is provided, but a well-fitting mask reduces fog and improves visibility for longer swims.
Timing for visibility
Choose an early departure for calmer seas and the best underwater visibility; afternoons can be windier.
Protect your feet
Wear water shoes on shore and when entering fiberglass ladders—coral rubble can be sharp.
