Best Boat Trips in Dahab: Snorkeling Yacht and Semi-Submarine

Quick answer: Egypt Sunmarine offers two boat trips in Dahab: a snorkeling yacht trip with an open buffet lunch on board, and a semi-submarine trip where you watch the reef from an air-conditioned underwater deck. Choose the yacht if you want to swim and snorkel, or the semi-submarine if you would rather stay dry.

What are the best boat trips in Dahab?

  • Dahab Snorkeling Yacht: a day on the water with two or three snorkeling stops, a snorkel guide and an open buffet lunch
  • Semi-Submarine Scope Dahab: a relaxed underwater trip with no swimming needed

Best snorkeling trip in Dahab: Dahab Snorkeling Yacht

The Dahab Snorkeling Yacht takes you out to some of the finest snorkeling sites in the Red Sea, with two or three stops depending on the weather. A snorkel guide accompanies guests throughout, so first-timers feel looked after, and a life jacket is provided. Between swims you can relax on the spacious sun deck or in one of the two air-conditioned salons, and enjoy an open buffet lunch on board.

  • Two or three snorkeling stops, depending on the weather
  • Snorkel guide and life jacket included
  • Open buffet lunch on board with soups, salads, chicken, Egyptian kofta, grilled shrimp and oven-baked fish
  • Soft drinks and an optional photo session included
  • Spacious sun deck, two air-conditioned salons, toilets and on-board service
  • Snorkeling equipment and transfer are not included

Best underwater trip in Dahab: Semi-Submarine Scope

The Semi-Submarine Scope lets you see the Red Sea reef without getting wet. You sail out to the reef, then watch marine life through panoramic windows from an air-conditioned, glass-walled underwater deck about 3 meters below the surface, with an individual seat for each guest. Snorkeling is not part of this trip, which makes it a comfortable choice for young children, non-swimmers and older travelers.

  • No swimming needed, observation only from the underwater deck
  • Air-conditioned deck with panoramic windows and individual seats
  • Soft drinks and an optional photo session included
  • Space for 40 to 77 guests, with toilets on board
  • Lunch and transfer are not included

Do I need to know how to swim for a boat trip in Dahab?

Not for the Semi-Submarine Scope, where everyone watches the reef from the underwater deck. On the snorkeling yacht, a life jacket and a snorkel guide are provided, so you can snorkel with support even if you are not a confident swimmer.
