Hotel pickup, snorkelling kit, lunch on board and a second reef stop keep the day easy to join, whether you are new to snorkelling or already confident in the water. 📋 Key Details Duration: Approximately 8 hours including transfers Difficulty: Easy Availability: Daily Pickup: Around 08:00 from hotels in Hurghada Focus: Dolphin House snorkelling and dolphin watching, plus a second reef stop 🤿 What to Expect After hotel pickup you transfer by bus to the Hurghada port, collect included snorkelling equipment and board the boat for the outbound sail. Crew brief you on entry points and reef etiquette before the first stop at the Dolphin House area, where you snorkel and watch for dolphins in open water when they appear. Lunch on board with a soft drink follows the first water stop, then a second coral reef stop adds more snorkelling time among fish and coral. Light water rides such as banana boat or couch boat may be available when the programme allows, before the return sail to port. Hotel transfer wraps the afternoon. Dolphin sightings are never guaranteed, but the day is built around reef time and open-water watching rather than a short marina cruise. Hotels in El Gouna, Makadi Bay and Sahl Hasheesh usually pay a small surcharge; Soma Bay and Safaga sit in a higher band, paid on the day. 📍 Location Hurghada's marina and port area is the usual departure point for Red Sea day boats heading toward the Dolphin House reefs. The coastline combines resort hotel strips with easy access to offshore coral sites popular for snorkelling day trips. Transfers within Hurghada are included, while nearby resort areas join with an on-the-day surcharge. Most of your time is spent offshore between two water stops rather than in town. ✅ Prerequisites No snorkelling qualification is required. Basic swimming comfort helps you enjoy the reef stops, and you should be happy boarding a day boat. Share hotel details at booking so pickup timing can be confirmed. Bring a towel, sun protection, sandals and any seasickness medication you normally use. Keep the full day free so transfers, two water stops and lunch on board are not rushed around other plans. ⭐ Why Choose Us The day combines hotel logistics, included snorkel kit, two reef-focused stops and lunch on board in one clear plan. Guides keep the schedule simple so first-time boat snorkellers and returning Red Sea vis… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Hotel pickup and return transfer within Hurghada Full-day boat trip toward the Dolphin House area Snorkelling equipment Lunch on board with a soft drink Second coral reef snorkelling stop Banana boat and couch boat rides when operated on the day ### What’s not included Flights and travel to your holiday destination Transport to and from the meeting point if you arrange your own arrival instead of hotel pickup Transfer surcharges outside Hurghada (El Gouna, Makadi Bay and Sahl Hasheesh +€5 per person; Soma Bay and Safaga +€10 per person) Personal expenses and gratuities Underwater camera hire Items of a personal nature (towel, sunscreen, hat) ### Kit list _None._ ## FAQs ### Will I definitely see dolphins? Dolphin watching is a key aim of the Dolphin House route, but sightings depend on where the animals are on the day. The team looks for opportunities in the usual area while keeping snorkelling time on the reefs as the reliable core of the outing. Even without a close dolphin encounter, you still get boat time, reef snorkelling stops and lunch on board, so the day is not only about one wildlife moment. ### Is snorkelling equipment included? Yes. Snorkelling equipment is collected at the port before you board and is included in the booking. Staff can help with basic fit so masks seal comfortably before the first stop. If you prefer your own mask or prescription lenses, you may bring personal kit, but you do not need to hire gear separately for a standard day. ### What time is hotel pickup? Pickup is usually around 08:00 from hotels in Hurghada, then you transfer by bus to the port. Exact timing can shift a little depending on your hotel location and the day's routing. After booking you receive confirmation of the pickup window so you can be ready in reception or at the stated meeting point. ### How long is the trip? Plan for about eight hours door to door, including hotel transfers, boarding, two water stops, lunch and the return to your hotel. It is a full-day outing rather than a short morning cruise. Keep the afternoon free so you are not trying to fit other excursions around the boat schedule. ### Is lunch included? Lunch on board is included, along with a soft drink. It is served between the reef stops so you can rest and warm up on deck before more snorkelling. If you have dietary needs, note them when you book. Extra drinks or snacks beyond what is served with lunch are not automatically included. ### Are children welcome? Families often join this style of boat snorkelling day. Comfort in the water matters more than age alone, and younger children should always be supervised by a parent or guardian on deck and in the sea. Share children's ages at booking so the operator can advise on suitability and life-jacket needs for your group. ### What should I bring? Bring a towel, sunglasses, a hat, flip-flops or sandals, a light cover-up, sunscreen and any personal medication including seasickness tablets if you use them. A waterproof camera is optional. Also bring a copy of your booking details or ID for check-in, plus cash for transfer surcharges if your hotel is outside free Hurghada pickup. ### What are the transfer surcharges outside Hurghada? Hurghada hotel transfers are included. For El Gouna, Makadi Bay and Sahl Hasheesh the usual surcharge is €5 per person. Soma Bay and Safaga are usually €10 per person. These amounts are typically paid in cash on the day. Confirm your hotel area when booking so the pickup team can plan the route. ### What happens if the sea is rough? Boat trips depend on weather and sea state. If conditions are unsuitable, the operator may change the route, delay departure or reschedule according to local safety rules. Stay reachable on the morning of travel so any marina updates can reach you before pickup. ### Are banana boat and couch boat rides guaranteed? Banana boat and couch boat rides are part of the usual fun on the water when conditions and the boat programme allow. They are not the main focus of the day compared with snorkelling and dolphin watching. If sea state or timing means those rides cannot run, you still keep the reef stops, lunch and transfers that form the core itinerary. ## 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/2026/08/45e3c97f-4d4e-4601-bd94-14cb082177bc-1-1.jpeg - **Gallery image count**: 5 ## 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.
