Ride a semi-submarine to Abo Monkar reef for panoramic underwater viewing and a guided 30-minute snorkel in the Red Sea. Ideal for non-divers, this three-hour excursion pairs comfortable boat transfer with close-up reef encounters.

The hull hums and the harbor light slides past as the Sea-scope glides toward Abo Monkar reef. From a panoramic window the reef rises like an ancient wall: coral fingers waving, parrotfish inspecting the new arrival, and a diver coaxing a shoal of silver to the glass. The ride lets the sea show itself quietly — a living gallery framed by 125 x 100 cm viewing panes.

Conservation
The Red Sea reefs are ecologically sensitive; operators encourage no-touch practices, use of reef-safe sunscreen, and adherence to designated mooring to minimize anchor damage.
