Snorkeling in the Red Sea: A Unique Experience of Underwater Biodiversity

The Red Sea is known for its crystal clear water and rich marine biodiversity, which make it an ideal location for snorkeling. Snorkeling is a popular activity in several of the Red Sea’s coastal cities, including Aqaba in Jordan, El Quseir in Egypt, and others. The Red Sea is home to a vast array of marine life, including over 1,100 species of fish and 200 species of coral.

One of the major reasons why the Red Sea is known to be one of the best snorkeling destinations in the world is its visibility. The water is particularly clear and can offer visibility of up to 20 meters, something that can rarely be found in other coral reefs around the world. In addition, the Red Sea’s temperature is ideal for swimming, which makes the experience comfortable and enjoyable.

The Red Sea’s unique position and hydrography make it a biodiversity hotspot. The water is rich in nutrients, which attracts a wide range of fish species, sharks, turtles, and other marine creatures. Snorkelers have reported seeing schools of colorful fish, including angelfish, clownfish, parrotfish, and butterflyfish while snorkeling along the coast of the Red Sea. Moreover, you can locate the unique dugongs or ‘sea cows’ in the more distant waters of the Red Sea, which is also home to predators such as reef sharks and barracudas.

For experienced snorkelers, the deeper waters of the Red Sea provide an opportunity to explore the beauty of marine life in its natural setting. In the deeper areas of the Red Sea, you’ll find branching or tree corals in all colors and species. You may also spot octopuses and cuttlefish hiding in the reefs, and even dolphins, which makes the entire experience even more unforgettable.

In conclusion, the Red Sea’s unique hydrography makes it a rare location for exploring marine life, making sure every snorkeling experience is truly memorable. The various marine animal species and bright hues of the coral reefs make the experience feel like being inside an aquarium. Plan your next snorkeling trip at the Red Sea, experience its unique biodiversity and be in awe of the underwater paradise.

AMAZING TOUR, SOLO TRAVELER.

October 12, 2024

I am a California woman who traveled to Egypt alone and thanks to Egypt Fun Tours I had a great time. Hani, Mohammed, Kamal and David (my driver) were very professional and very knowledgeable, I appreciate how respectful they were and how protective they were with me.

They show me everything I wanted to see in Cairo and nearby places like Saqqara, Memphis, etc. Thanks to them I had a great time in Egypt, they were so so helpful than on my second day they helped me to move from my hotel in Giza to the Steigenberger hotel in downtown Cairo.

The tour price is super good includes a guide (expert in the field) a driver, lunch and drinks, they took me to amazing places for lunch, the food was super super delicious, for a foodie like me that was a highlight. We went out fo the tourist traps and I got to see the Cairo that if you are in a bus tour you will never get to see.

This tour is personalized for each person depending of what you want to see and do, I absolutely love it.

I used WhatsApp to communicate with Hani and arranged all my tours, Hani was super super nice since the moment I contacted him and explained him what I wanted to do and see.

Hani and his group mesmerized me with the tours they put together, this is a memory I will keep for lifetime.

I had only good things to say about them and I highly recommend them.

I did visit the pyramids in Giza, downtown Cairo, new Cairo, several museums, Coptic Cairo and Muslim Cairo with them and I learned a lot from them, I felt like they were family to me and it was EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT.

If I go back to Egypt I will hire them again without hesitation.

David I take my hat off for you because I have NO IDEA how you can drive in crazy Cairo, thanks to all of you for making this lady’s dream a reality.

My Dream Came True

October 12, 2024

I had waited 60 years to get to Egypt, in fact it was my 60th birthday gift to myself. I went with my oldest daughter and the experience was excellent. It was meticulously planned by the tour company and was designed for me and my daughter. I never had a minute where I was concerned. We were met by a tour rep at the airport and every step of the way. The guides were beyond expectations. Mydo the best tour guide of Egypt was excellent and very knowledgeable. Tarek our guide for the south, was equally as knowledgeable. I can’t say enough about both. Hani the tour director is the greatest, personable and so very helpful and truly cares that you have the best experience of your life. It was a dream come true. All the holidays we stayed at were 5 star in my opinion. I don’t have a bad word to say about this tour company. My daughter and I were treated exceptionally well by all and by all in Egypt

Islamic cairo and khan el khalili- great tour

September 28, 2024

Wonderful tour with the guide Hamada. I did not feel rushed at all, he explained a lot of facts about the city, the mosque , the water storage room, and also brought me to no hassle shops. He picked a great place to eat and have Turkish coffee and a cold lemon mint drink. We took a took took when we got tired from walking. He also happens to be a great photographer and helped take beautiful pictures. Overall a wonderful tour and great experience.
