The boat eases out of Naama Bay as the Sinai coast falls away and the Red Sea opens into a sheet of clear blue. By mid-morning the hull slips over shallows thick with plate coral; surface life flashes below as the crew prepares lines and tanks. You’ll move between snorkeling stops and marked dive anchors, switching between floating on the surface and descending into tight reef valleys alive with color.

Bring your own mask if possible
Onboard equipment is provided, but a well-fitting personal mask reduces leaks and fogging for long surface sessions.
Choose a morning departure
Calmer seas and better underwater visibility are typical earlier in the day, which improves both snorkeling and diving conditions.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Apply biodegradable sunscreen before boarding and slip on a rashguard to limit chemical exposure to corals.
Plan for seasickness
If you’re prone to motion sickness, take preventative medication the night before and again before boarding; sit midship where motion is less pronounced.
Mask & snorkel (personal)
A comfortable, well-sealed mask makes long surface swims far more enjoyable and prevents leaks.
Reef-safe sunscreen
Protects skin and the coral ecosystem—apply before boarding and reapply where allowed.
