Nice but...
White beach with a beautiful coral reef.
We saw 2 turtles.
We are not fully satisfied as the guide makes you stand in the water just under half an hour after that, you can only soak but you can not go alone to see the corals.
What is even less pleasant is the too many people swimming and you have to be careful because they throw fins or kicks at you while swimming.
But the place is nice, definitely an experience to do at least once.

Top with Marsa Waves
Abu Dabbab is beautiful. For the second time this week we were traveling with Marsa Waves. Everything worked out perfectly again. We were lucky and were on the road with Dido again. Dido is a great guide and has done everything to make us feel good.
Thank you very much

A VERY successful diving trip! 🐢🐠🦐🤿
I’d like to think my partner and I are quite well travelled and we always do 2-3 excursions on each of our trips. Without a doubt, this was one of the BEST we’ve ever done.
Our driver arrived on time in a clean, air-conditioned vehicle. My partner was a little unwell and he made sure to stop regularly for us to use the facilities and have a cold beverage.
Our guide - Dido - was cheerful, helpful and enthusiastic. He worked hard to make sure that we had the best possible experience (even though I am not a confident swimmer or driver and can be slow).
One our first dive, we saw FOUR turtles. One was HUGE and another was elderly (he had turned white so the guides suspected 70+). Two of them came up for air alongside us and we were able to see their faces outside of the water too. We also saw two blue spotted stingrays and some fish.
On our second dive, we visited a coral reef. I did not swim out as far and I still saw: coral, anemones, a triggerfish, a purple stone fish, a striped trumpet fish, a type of shrimp and at least 10 different types of colourful tropical fish too! I also believe I saw one small lionfish, but it was quite far away and unclear. Some of the fish were very large and many were friendly and approached closely. My partner went out further and saw a 2 metre long moray eel, a guitar fish (quite rare here now) and multiple large schools of tropical coloured fish before also observing the bright blue ‘drop off’ area.
Honestly, when we booked this, we weren’t sure we’d see anything! So, to see as much as we did in one day really has blown us away!

An experience you can't let slip every time you have the chance
One of the best beaches to enjoy turtles, corals, marine fauna.
Good Mood, Very Good Care.
You have the beach bar for snacks, coffee, a drink, etc.
You have the option of going out by boat, diving,
All the staff very friendly.
A place to go with children (we went with 2, 9 and 2)...
That's if... don't forget cream...

Tauchen ja - Schnorcheln nein
Wir haben zwar zwei Schildkröten gesehen, aber es waren so viele Menschen die sich auf die Schildkröte gestürzt haben, dass man das gar nicht genießen konnte.
Ausserdem hat der Guide uns immer zu den Schildkröten geschuckt (Menschenmenge).. Dadurch dass es auch sehr Windig war, war das gar nicht so schön….

Outstanding Experience with Marsa Alam Tours!
I had an incredible experience with Marsa Alam Tours, and I highly recommend their services to anyone planning a trip to Egypt. I booked several tours through them, including a flight trip to Cairo, where I visited the Serapeum, the Step Pyramid of Saqqara, the Giza Pyramids, and the GEM Museum. Additionally, I arranged transfers from Marsa Alam to Makadi Bay, a snorkeling trip to Abu Dabbab, and a dolphin snorkeling excursion.
Everything was organized smoothly and effortlessly, even when we had to adjust our plans due to weather conditions affecting the snorkeling trip. Hasnaa provided exceptional service, responding promptly and kindly to all my inquiries.
The guides and drivers were highly professional, and I especially enjoyed the private transfers and the private tour in Cairo. Our guide, Amr Moses, was absolutely fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about Egyptian history. The drivers were always reliable and punctual, making me feel safe and comfortable throughout my travels.
I can wholeheartedly recommend Marsa Alam Tours to anyone looking for hassle-free and well-organized travel arrangements in Egypt. They truly go above and beyond to ensure an unforgettable experience.

Very nice experience!
We saw two turtles, and the coral reef is beautiful! We were alone with the guide. Only downsides are the quality of the masks and the excess number of visitors. But I highly recommend this visit, we had a great time.

Top excursion
It's an amazing trip. We were a small group, the guide had taken a lot of time and dived with our cameras to take close-ups of the turtles and sea fish on the reef.
The excursion is 100% recommended

Super snorkeling with family
Few people on the beach.
Beautiful colorful coral reefs just like the fish that are omnipresent and of all sizes.
And the highlight of the show is the sea turtles, which can be snorkelled down to observe up close.
The Guide is very friendly and adapts well to his customers.
