What to expect

Enjoy a snorkelling cruise with lunch and all-inclusive soft drinks while exploring the underwater life of the Red Sea and discovering Magawish Island.

You will be picked up from your hotel in Hurghada, Makadi, El Gouna, Sahl Hashish or Soma Bay and head toward the Jetty. Climb on board the boat and sail to the first snorkelling stop in the reef area. As you sail, enjoy watching a fascinating panoramic view of the Hurghada Riviera from the boat. Reaching the first snorkelling stop, you will admire the coral reef and several species of fish such as parrotfish, angelfish and clownfish.

Get on board again to stretch your legs and enjoy a buffet lunch on board containing meatballs, chicken wings, white rice, macaroni, oven-baked potatoes, 5 kinds of salad, and 2 kinds of Egyptian seasonal fruits, plus all-inclusive soft and hot drinks. Once you have landed on the Island, spend unforgettable free time of around 90 minutes snorkelling on the impressive coral heads scattered in the clear lagoon, walking on the sandy beach or just relaxing on the pure white beach.

Take your boat and sail back to the Jetty to get transferred to your accommodation in Hurghada and its surroundings.

    Overall was great experience and well planned out on boat you had as many soft drinks as you wanted The main guy of boat seemed to have his girlfriend on boat while sailing and was right at front kissing playing with her ********** which I found wasn’t appropriate and definitely didn’t want my kids seeing it but couldn’t help as they were in front where everyone looking not professionally but tour guide great food was Okish but trip worth going so beautiful and fun

    The boat, staff on board and dive teams were 10/10. Transfer was efficient but 2 hour from pick up to leaving marina due to paperwork, waivers and waiting on port authority saying "go". Staff kept us well supplilied with drinks. Meal on board was generous and delicious. Staff were friendly. Magawish however is like a refugee camp and time which would have been better enjoyed on board. Beach crowded and nothing special. Detracted from an otherwise great experience.
