Lunch is served on board, hotel collection is included, and the outing runs about eight hours. 📋 Key Details Duration: About 8 hours including collection Group size: 1 to 15 Meeting point: Hotel collection in the Marsa Alam area Format: Mixed snorkel and dive day boat with lunch on board Location: Coral Gardens reefs off Marsa Alam 🤿 What to Expect Coral Gardens reef rises from the seabed in stacked formations busy with tropical fish from the first fin-kick. Snorkellers float above the coral while divers drop to swim-throughs and ledges a few metres deeper, each group with an instructor in the water. Reef stops are paced with a proper lunch break on deck between sessions, so you surface, rinse off and eat before heading back in. Further coral patches follow if the sea stays workable, giving both snorkellers and divers more time among the reef life before the cruise home. 📍 Location Coral Gardens sits off the Marsa Alam coast, with clear water and coral close enough for snorkel and dive stops from the boat. The sites are reef stops, not a hotel-beach swim. You leave the resort strip for open Red Sea water, then return to the same hotel after the cruise home. Collection covers the usual Marsa Alam resort belt. Distances between hotels mean pickup windows can run long, so be ready early and eat breakfast before you leave reception. Once you are back on the coast, hotel beaches sit close to most properties, though this day is built around several reef sites rather than a swim off the hotel jetty. ✅ Prerequisites Snorkellers need no previous training, only comfort in the sea beside a boat. Divers should hold a recognised qualification and bring the card. Say if you are a weak swimmer so you can use a life jacket and stay on snorkel. Do not assume an uncertified try-dive is included; if you have never dived, stay on snorkel unless the crew offer a separate intro on the day and you have agreed it. Wear swimwear under a cover-up, bring a towel and sun protection, and eat breakfast before pickup. Keep the whole day free. This is a mixed snorkel-and-dive day boat, not a certification course, so do not expect a card on this outing. Mention ages when you confirm your place; younger children usually snorkel rather than dive. ⭐ Why Choose Us Hotel collection, lunch and a mixed snorkel-and-dive day let a split gro… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Hotel collection in the Marsa Alam area Full-day boat to Coral Gardens with instructors on the water stops Snorkel kit for surface sessions Dive support for qualified divers on the same day Lunch on board between sessions ### What’s not included Making your own way if you skip hotel collection Transport to and from the meeting point if you do not use the included pickup A diving course or certification Soft drinks and extras beyond the included lunch Photos, personal expenses and tips ### Kit list Swimwear, rash vest or t-shirt, towel and dry clothes Dive certification card if you want tanks Sunscreen, hat, sunglasses and a dry bag Hotel name for collection ## FAQs ### Is hotel pickup included? Yes. Collection from hotels in the Marsa Alam area is part of this day. Give your hotel name when you book so the driver can find the right gate, and be ready in the window you are given because the coast road between resorts can be slow. Build the whole eight-hour shape into your day rather than planning a late dinner immediately afterwards. Arriving late at reception cuts into time at the reef. ### How is this different from the snorkel-only Coral Gardens day? This day mixes snorkel and dive stops on the same Coral Gardens day. The cheaper Coral Gardens listing is snorkel only. Choose this trip if someone in the group wants tanks; use the snorkel-only page if nobody is diving. They are not two lengths of the same form. The from-price and the kit on the boat are different. ### Do I need to be a certified diver? Snorkellers are welcome and do not need dive training. If you want to dive, bring proof of your qualification so the crew can put you on tanks. Seasoned divers and people new to snorkelling can share the same outing. Do not assume an uncertified try-dive is included. If you have never dived, stay on snorkel unless the crew offer a separate intro on the day and you have agreed it. ### Is lunch included? A freshly prepared lunch is served on board between water sessions. Treat it as a proper sit-down on the boat rather than a snack, and say any dietary needs when you confirm your place so the kitchen can try to match them. Carry extra water and a small snack for the run out if you eat breakfast early. Soft drinks beyond what is served may be extra on the boat. ### How many dives will I get? There are multiple stops where you can dive or snorkel. Exact sites and the number of tank dives can change with sea state, your qualification and how the group is going. Follow the instructor's plan rather than counting on a fixed two-dive script. Stay where you can see the boat when you surface. Divers and snorkellers may be split at a stop so each group stays at the right depth. ### Can children join the boat? The crew look at swimming ability and, for divers, qualification before they agree a session. Infants are not a fit for the reef stops. Younger children usually snorkel rather than dive. Mention ages when you confirm your place. Do not assume a junior tank is waiting unless the team have said so. ### What should I wear and bring? Swimwear, a rash vest or t-shirt, a towel and dry clothes for the ride back are the practical kit. Divers should bring their certification card and logbook if they have one. Sunscreen, a hat and a long sleeve for the deck matter on an eight-hour day. A dry bag keeps phones and cards off wet decks. Soft shoes that can get wet help on the swim ladder. Boat kit covers snorkel gear; ask on the day what dive kit is issued rather than assuming a full kit hire. ### Will I see turtles or dolphins? Tropical fish are the usual sight on these reefs. Turtles and dolphins are sometimes seen, but they are wild. Stay with the guide and give animals space if they appear. Do not chase wildlife for photos. The coral and the clear water still make the day if the larger animals are elsewhere. ### What if the sea is rough? The day needs a workable sea. If the outer reefs are too rough, the crew may switch to closer sites or hold the departure. You will be told as early as they can once morning conditions are clear. Have a loose plan for the rest of the day so a weather hold does not wreck the whole morning. Eight hours on a boat is already a long window even when the sea is kind. ### Is this a diving course? This is a guided day-boat mix, not a certification course. Open Water and Advanced courses from Marsa Alam are separate listings. Choose this trip if you already dive or only want to snorkel on a Coral Gardens day. If you want to learn to dive, use the course listings rather than expecting certification to happen on this outing. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/63a17d53-51f8-4255-a149-bcf29ddffad9-1.jpg - **Gallery image count**: 6 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
