Marsa Mubarak Snorkeling Trip from Marsa Alam takes you by boat from Port Ghalib to explore Red Sea coral reefs, colorful tropical fish, sea turtles and the natural habitat of the famous dugong, also known as the sea cow.
Your day starts with hotel pickup in Marsa Alam and transfer to Port Ghalib Marina. From there, you board the boat and head toward the snorkeling areas around Marsa el Shouna and Marsa Mubarak.
After the first snorkeling session, enjoy lunch on board and time to relax before continuing to Marsa Mubarak. Here, you can explore coral reefs and seagrass areas while looking for sea turtles, colorful fish and, with luck, a wild dugong.
Dugong and turtle sightings are not guaranteed because these are wild animals that move freely through their natural habitat. The trip gives you the opportunity to look for them while enjoying a full day of snorkeling in the Red Sea.
The excursion is suitable for beginners and experienced snorkelers. Snorkeling equipment, life jackets, guide assistance, lunch and soft drinks are included.

Your Marsa Mubarak snorkeling trip from Marsa Alam begins with pickup from your hotel.

Marsa Mubarak is a popular choice for travelers who want to combine a Red Sea boat trip with marine wildlife and snorkeling.
Unlike a simple beach snorkeling session, this excursion takes you by boat to different marine areas, including Marsa el Shouna and Marsa Mubarak. You have the opportunity to explore coral formations, observe reef fish and look for larger marine animals such as sea turtles and dugongs.
The natural environment is an important part of the experience. Since the animals are wild, sightings depend on their location, sea conditions and daily activity.
Sea turtles are among the marine animals travelers hope to see during a Marsa Mubarak snorkeling trip. The area's shallow water and seagrass habitats can attract turtles that feed in the area.
If you encounter a turtle, keep a respectful distance and follow the guide's instructions. Do not touch, chase or feed marine animals.
Marsa Mubarak is also known for the possibility of seeing the dugong, sometimes called the sea cow.
Dugongs feed mainly on seagrass and can move through different parts of the bay. A sighting is never guaranteed, but the marine habitat gives you a genuine opportunity to look for one during the snorkeling trip.
If a dugong appears, the best way to enjoy the encounter is to observe it calmly without touching or chasing it.
The snorkeling areas around Marsa el Shouna and Marsa Mubarak offer opportunities to explore Red Sea coral formations.
Depending on visibility and sea conditions, you may see different coral structures, sandy areas and reef fish while snorkeling with the guide.
The Red Sea is home to a wide variety of colorful reef fish. During the snorkeling sessions, you may see fish swimming around the coral formations and shallow marine areas.
Marine life can vary from one day to another, so every snorkeling trip can offer a slightly different experience.
Marsa Mubarak is valuable because of its marine environment and wildlife.
When snorkeling, please keep a respectful distance from turtles, dugongs and other animals. Avoid touching coral, standing on reef formations or feeding marine life.
If you see a dugong or turtle, allow it to move naturally through the water rather than following it closely.
Responsible snorkeling helps protect the Red Sea environment so that marine life can continue to thrive.
You do not need advanced snorkeling experience to join. The guide can explain how to use the equipment and provide assistance during the water activities.
Experienced snorkelers can enjoy exploring the coral formations, reef fish and marine habitats around Marsa el Shouna and Marsa Mubarak.
