Mahmya Island Snorkeling Tour – Red Sea Paradise Awaits
Your day begins when a Tripora Tours representative picks you up from your hotel or resort in Hurghada. You’ll be transferred to the marina, where you’ll board a luxurious cruise boat and begin your scenic one-hour journey to Mahmya Island.
Located on the southern side of Giftun Island, Mahmya (which means “Protected Area” in Arabic) is a part of a national marine reserve. To protect its precious coral reefs and marine life, large boats are anchored offshore, and guests are shuttled to the island by smaller boats.
Once you arrive, you’ll have the freedom to:
-
Snorkel in the shallow reefs of the crystal-clear lagoon
-
Walk the beach and enjoy the calm, tropical vibe
-
Challenge friends to a game of beach volleyball
-
Let the kids bounce on the Aqua Trampoline
-
Chill out at the shaded lounge with free Wi-Fi
Enjoy a hearty lunch served at the island restaurant featuring a mix of seafood and Italian favorites. After some more relaxation or a quick dip, you’ll cruise back to the marina and be transferred to your hotel, ending a day of sun, sea, and serenity.
