Safaga Snorkeling Day Trip

You’ll be picked up from the port at 8:am cruise out to Utopia Island to uncover the underwater treasures of the reefs and beaches. Explore an alien habitat beneath the waves as you marvel at the colors and variety of sea life. Utopia Island is a protected area of the Red Sea with pristine beaches, coral reefs, and warm lagoons. This is a great site for snorkeling and is very special. It consists of five coral heads rising to the surface and resting at 12 meters deep. You can observe many species on the surface but also go down to explore the different coral heads, all inhabited by different species. Located only thirty minutes from Safaga, the spot is not to be missed. They include napoleon, crocodile fish, turbot, moray eels, lionfish and many others

Tobia Hamra is a large reef of almost 2 kilometers, it is particularly known for the practice of snorkeling. The Tobia Hamra site is on the northeastern part of this great reef. There are large gardens of hard corals and beautiful very shallow lagoons and, therefore, suitable for snorkeling. The best is to go there in the morning to be able to come across turtles, napoleons, eagle rays, flying lionfish, riflemen, moray eels, stonefish, and a multitude of tropical fish of all colors.

Lunch

Enjoy a Sea Food buffet lunch on the board before proceeding to your next snorkeling spot

It is a beautiful drop with a huge reef that touches the surface of the water. A snorkeling outing is made at the upper part of this reef. There are many gorgonians and a crowd of fish that prefer to stay at the top of this huge pinnacle that goes down more than 400 meters deep. One can glimpse in the depths, the famous anemone city which is, in truth, a great underwater city inhabited by a large number of clownfishes in fabulous gardens of gorgonian coral. You can also see tuna, turtles and sometimes even see dolphins. Later you will cruise back to the port or accommodation point at 3 pm.
