Hurghada, Red Sea
A relaxed Red Sea boat day for families, non-divers, children, and mixed groups who still want real reef time in Hurghada.
Snorkeling is a strong choice for guests who do not dive, are not yet comfortable underwater, or simply want to enjoy the Red Sea from the surface in warm, clear water.
Hurghada is excellent for snorkeling because the Red Sea is warm, clear, and full of surface-level marine life that can be enjoyed without full scuba training.
This trip works especially well for young children, non-divers, mixed families, and guests who cannot dive for medical reasons but still want a proper sea day on board. Depending on conditions, the boat can stop at more than one snorkeling area during the day.
Included: snorkeling equipment, lunch on board, coffee, tea, water, and soft drinks. See the full price list for details.
Transfer: hotels inside Hurghada are included. El Gouna, Makadi, and Sahl Hasheesh transfers are €25 per car.
Price: €30 per person.
If your group includes certified divers as well, compare this trip with the Daily Diving page or contact us to arrange the most suitable mixed boat day. Not sure what level you need? Try an Introduction Dive first, or explore the PADI courses for full certification.
Yes. This trip is a strong option for children, beginners, non-divers, and mixed families who want an easy Red Sea day.
Equipment and food are provided, so guests mainly need personal sea-day essentials such as a towel.
Hurghada's reef life is dense and visible from the surface — even on a single snorkeling stop you can expect to count more than a dozen species without leaving the boat's anchor area.
The reef stays vivid year-round because the Red Sea is warm (21-29 °C) and visibility averages 15-25 metres.
A snorkeling day with Diving Star follows the same rhythm as a diving day, so families with mixed groups can share the same boat.
