Hotel Pick-Up and Departure

A comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle will take you directly to the port where you will board one of the Mahmya boats for a scenic 1-hour sailing tour. Enjoy the gentle breeze and stunning views as you cruise through the turquoise waters of the Red Sea, watching for playful dolphins along the way.
Arrive at Mahmya Island
Upon arriving at Mahmya Island, located on the southern shores of Giftun Island National Park, you’ll be greeted by white sandy beaches and palm-thatched huts, creating a peaceful oasis. The island is part of a protected area, ensuring its natural beauty and vibrant marine life are preserved.

Optional Glass-Bottom Boat Ride
For those who prefer to stay dry, you can rent a glass-bottom boat to view the underwater world from the comfort of the boat. It’s a fantastic way to admire the coral reefs and marine life without getting into the water.
Return to Hurghada
At the end of your relaxing day at Mahmya Island, you’ll board the boat back to the marina and enjoy a scenic sail back to Hurghada. A transfer will then take you back to your hotel, with memories of a truly beautiful day spent in paradise.
