Dolphin Bay is a full-day boat trip from Hurghada to an offshore reef where pods of wild dolphins are usually found. It suits anyone who wants to snorkel, see dolphins in their natural habitat and spend a day on a yacht with lunch.

What to expect

The first stop is Dolphin Bay: with luck, dolphins swim past while you snorkel. The yacht then makes two more snorkelling stops at reefs, with lunch on board and banana-boat and tube rides in between. Anyone aged 10 and over can try an introductory dive for a supplement.

When to go

Keep an eye on the weather: in strong wind and waves the dolphins move to deeper water and the chances of seeing them drop. If you can, plan the trip for a calm day.

On board

The yacht has a toilet and a fresh-water shower. Snorkelling gear and the guide are included.

We went on the boat trip to Dolphin House today and it was fantastic! We saw the dolphins so close that my heart skipped a beat! The snorkelling was wonderful too — I couldn't tear myself away from the underwater scenery. And of course the banana boat and ringo rides were great fun and a real adrenaline rush! Lunch on the yacht was tasty and filling. A huge thank you to the crew for an amazing day!
