Abu Dabbab Dugong Experience

Your adventure begins with an early morning pickup from your hotel in Hurghada. Travel comfortably in an air-conditioned vehicle and enjoy a scenic journey of approximately three hours south along the Red Sea coast toward the beautiful Abu Dabbab Bay near Marsa Alam.

Upon arrival, discover one of Egypt’s most renowned snorkeling locations. Abu Dabbab Bay is famous for its calm turquoise waters, sandy beach, extensive seagrass meadows, and thriving marine ecosystem. After receiving your snorkeling equipment and a brief orientation, prepare to explore one of the Red Sea’s most spectacular underwater environments.

Begin your snorkeling experience directly from the beach, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced snorkelers. Swim through colorful coral gardens, observe tropical reef fish, and explore the seagrass beds that attract marine wildlife. Abu Dabbab is particularly famous for its resident green sea turtles and occasional dugong sightings, offering a unique snorkeling experience unlike anywhere else in Egypt.

After your snorkeling adventure, enjoy a delicious lunch while relaxing by the beach. Take in the beautiful coastal scenery and peaceful atmosphere before continuing your day.

This optional excursion lasts approximately 1.5 hours and is available for an additional charge.

In the late afternoon, begin your return journey to Hurghada. Relax during the scenic drive back along the Red Sea coast and arrive at your hotel in the evening with unforgettable memories of Abu Dabbab’s incredible marine life.
