Complimentary airport transfers to the Hurghada marinaare available on embarkation and disembarkation days, with transfer times ranging from approximately 10 - 20 minutes depending on the airport and port. Guests arriving early or departing late can arrange hotel transfers or additional transport upon request.

Dive Overview

Diving in Egypt’s Red Sea is renowned for its warm, clear waters, vibrant coral reefs, and consistently excellent visibility, often exceeding 30 metres. The region offers a mix of reef dives, steep walls, coral gardens, and open-water encounters, with marine life ranging from colourful reef fish and turtles to dolphins, rays, and seasonal sightings of pelagic species such as sharks. Strong currents in certain areas attract large fish schools, making the Red Sea particularly appealing to experienced divers, while sheltered sites provide relaxed conditions suitable for all certification levels.
