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.

This week we had a great tour with Mohamed to the pyramids of Sakkara and Dahshur as well as Memphis. He tailored the tour to our preferences, took a lot of time with us and gave us detailed background information on everything. It was also great that he never tired of taking the time to answer our many questions.
You can definitely tell that he has studied Egyptology as he has a very deep understanding of the subject and can explain everything well. He also speaks perfect English and is really good driver.
We would definitely book a tour with him again in a heartbeat and would recommend him to anyone. 🙂
Highly Recommend Egypt Fun Tours!
Several weeks ago, I reached out to Egypt Fun Tours regarding a 9-hour layover in Cairo. From the very beginning, Hani Ahmed was responsive and professional, quickly providing a well-organized itinerary tailored to our limited time. The itinerary included a visit to the pyramids, other historical sites, a delicious dinner, and even a quick stop for souvenir shopping.
Upon arrival, Gilman efficiently assisted us in obtaining our day tourist visas (note: $25 per person in cash). She then introduced us to our guide, Mydo, who was absolutely phenomenal! Mydo’s knowledge, friendly demeanor, and ability to adjust the tour to our pace made the experience unforgettable.
We returned to the airport with plenty of time to relax before our flight. The entire experience was smooth, stress-free, and incredibly memorable. Egypt Fun Tours offers reasonable prices for a private, customized experience that truly exceeds expectations. Thank you, Egypt Fun Tours! We will definitely use your services again in the future.
Muhammad is the best! He showed me a world I never thought possible! The tombs in Alexandria by far was my favorite! I never knew there was a place on earth that contained both Greek and Egyptian carvings in the same tombs! The history and culture of Egypt is so fascinating! I highly recommend booking with Muhammad!
