Few experiences can match the thrill and wonder of meeting wild dolphins in their natural home. The Private Speedboat Trip to Dolphin House from Soma Bay is your ticket to an unforgettable encounter — where adventure, nature, and tranquility blend into one perfect Red Sea escape.
This exclusive half-day journey takes you across crystal-clear turquoise waters to one of Egypt’s most famous marine sanctuaries — the Dolphin House Reef, a stunning stretch of coral and sea where wild dolphins often play and swim freely.
With a private speedboat, flexible schedule, and personalized service, this tour offers the ideal balance between excitement and relaxation — a must-do for families, couples, and ocean lovers alike.
Your day begins with a comfortable pickup from your hotel in Soma Bay. A private, air-conditioned transfer brings you directly to Hurghada Marina, where your captain and crew welcome you aboard your own private speedboat.
As you set off across the sparkling waters of the Red Sea, you’ll feel the wind on your face and the sun warming your skin — an exhilarating sense of freedom. The coastline fades away, replaced by open water and endless sky. Within a short time, you arrive at your destination: Dolphin House, one of the Red Sea’s most beloved snorkeling and dolphin-viewing sites.
Here, you’ll dive into the water to snorkel with vibrant marine life — and if you’re lucky, you might find yourself surrounded by friendly wild dolphins gliding gracefully through the sea.
Located just off the coast of Hurghada, Dolphin House (Shaab El Erg) is a naturally formed reef shaped like a horseshoe — a sheltered haven that attracts pods of spinner and bottlenose dolphins. The area’s calm, shallow waters make it perfect for snorkeling and swimming.
Dolphin House isn’t just about dolphins — it’s also home to spectacular coral formations and an astonishing diversity of marine creatures. Think of it as an open-water playground where nature puts on its most beautiful show.
Once aboard your private speedboat, your captain sets course for Dolphin House Reef. The ride is smooth, fast, and full of stunning scenery. Watch the sun sparkle on the sea, look for flying fish darting across the surface, and feel the excitement build as you approach the open waters where dolphins roam.
When you arrive, it’s time for the highlight of your trip — swimming near wild dolphins in their natural habitat. With the help of your guide, slip into the warm waters and experience the thrill of seeing these intelligent creatures up close.
Although encounters can never be guaranteed (since the dolphins are free and wild), the chance to witness them in their natural environment — unconfined and playful — is truly magical.
You’ll also have plenty of time to snorkel around the reef, discovering coral gardens teeming with colorful fish and fascinating marine life.
After your dolphin encounter, the adventure continues at a nearby Coral Garden Reef, one of the Red Sea’s most vibrant underwater spots. Swim among parrotfish, butterflyfish, angelfish, and even blue-spotted rays.
The crystal-clear visibility and calm sea make this an ideal stop for both beginners and experienced snorkelers. Don’t forget your underwater camera — this is a moment you’ll want to capture.
After your snorkeling adventures, unwind aboard your private speedboat. Enjoy fresh fruits, snacks, and cold soft drinks as you lounge on deck. Feel the gentle sea breeze, listen to the waves, and soak in the breathtaking panorama of the Red Sea coastline.
Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply indulging in a luxurious escape, this is your moment to relax and recharge in total privacy.
