Tour Overview

A private snorkelling yacht day at Giftun Island — Hurghada's classic Red Sea escape.

The classic Hurghada day out — a private yacht charter to the protected reefs of Giftun Island. Anchor at two of the best snorkelling sites, wade ashore on a soft white-sand beach, and enjoy a freshly prepared lunch onboard.

With your private captain and crew, the yacht is entirely yours — no shared groups, no rushed schedules — just a full, relaxed day on the turquoise waters of Egypt's most loved coast.
