Very beautiful reef with great underwater world
We enjoyed the trip to the dolphin house in wonderful weather, the yacht was well maintained, we had a very nice guide who always told us when and where to meet his group.
We were split into several groups and went to the first snorkeling stop with dolphins.
We had hoped for a little more, some tail fins were visible in the distance, after about 20 minutes a group of dolphins approached, but only vaguely visible. I think you just have to be lucky, they are not zoo animals, which is a good thing.
And the noise, the kicking, whistling and screaming of the many snorkelers in the water... you can understand why the animals don't come closer...
The second stop at the reef was very, very nice, we swam around the reef for about 45 minutes, saw beautiful corals and many colorful fish, schools of fish, etc., a beautiful underwater world.
Our guide always swam ahead, always tried to show us immediately when he saw something interesting, always with a lifebuoy in case someone lost their strength. You have to be amazed at how exhausting it is, despite the life jacket, which is mandatory!
The reef was really a great experience, the trip out to sea was very beautiful, everyone tried very hard to make it a nice trip.
Cold drinks, cola, water and tea were also available all day.
Food was also provided, there was a delicious lunch, chicken, rice, pasta, salad etc....
I have to say, however, that my husband and I got severe diarrhea the next day, which didn't just last two days, as is often the case in Egypt... but over a week... the usual medication ANTINAL didn't help at all... The last 5 days of our 2-week vacation were over and it wasn't until a few days after we got home that we felt well again.
It definitely wasn't the hotel's fault; we ate and drank there for 8 days and there were no problems.
We don't want to assume anything here, we just want to advise you to be careful about what you eat on a trip.

Absolut empfehlenswert
Wurde pünktlich von einem freundlichen Fahrer mit einem SUV abgeholt und mit einem kurzen Zwischenstop direkt zum Boot gebracht. Es war etwas starker Wellengang und leider haben wir keine Delfine gesehen und trotzdem kann ich diesen Ausflug guten Gewissens weiterempfehlen. Der Service auf dem Boot war prima und die Stimmung sehr gut. Würde ich auf jeden Fall nochmal buchen...
Wurde um 7:30 Uhr abgeholt und war um 16:15 Uhr zurück am Hotel.

Not to do!
Don't do this excursion with Fantazia diving! It was a terrible, disorganized excursion, we snorkeled among the exhaust of other boats. Absolutely not recommended.

Un rêve réalisé
Nager avec des dauphins : ce fut pour moi une expérience vraiment incroyable (encouragée par mon frère je n'y croyais pas trop), rendue possible grâce à une super équipe d'accompagnateurs. Merci beaucoup à tous 🤗 !!!

Dolphin bay trip out
A fun filled day with fantastic guide and boat crew. Food was excellent and though we did not get to see the dolphins the trip was brilliant.

Day with dolphins and a turtle surprise
At first it seemed too sharp to me than other groups, and so the dolphins ran away.
But then the instructors managed to ensure that we separated ourselves from the other groups so that we could then enjoy the dolphins.
We also managed to see a giant turtle, a nice coral reef but not too full of fish.
Super qualified staff, very nice and the Monkey is a wonderful boat thanks for the great experience.

Nice, but no dolphins seen.
Snorkeled twice in a small group with a guide. Water was cold, you could rent wetsuits. No dolphins seen. Lunch was good, but we left immediately afterwards. The sea was wild. And several people got seasick.

Highly recommended! Big 10 for everything and a great experience richer!
Great experience and actually swam with the beautiful spinner dolphins. Also snorkeled at a beautiful piece of coral, you will be amazed.
The pick-up at the hotel, the food and drinks on the boat, the snorkeling guidance, the staff on the boat, etc. It all gets a 10! So hospitable and cozy.
Please note: it is not recommended for people who suffer from seasickness. The boat trip to the Bay can be a bit restless due to the waves. We thought it was really a party and quite an experience 🥳🙏!

Ein unvergessliches Erlebnis wenn Delphine zu Hause sind
Natürlich sind sehr viele Touristen da, um die Delphine zu sehen, aber immer mit der entsprechenden Rücksichtnahme auf die Tiere. Wir hatten das Glück und die Delphine haben sich uns genähert, ein unglaublich schöner Moment.
Die Crew war nett essen OK. Wer hat, sollte eigene Flossen mitbringen, für mich gab es leider keine mehr....war schön anstrengend.....aber der Guide hat einen auch gezogen wenn nötig.
