Embark on an unforgettable snorkeling trip to Sataya Dolphin Reef from Port Ghalib, where the turquoise waters of the Red Sea come alive with playful spinner dolphins. This magical full-day adventure offers the unique chance to swim side by side with 60–80 dolphins, admire colorful coral gardens, and enjoy a freshly prepared lunch aboard your boat.
Whether you’re an experienced snorkeler or trying it for the first time, the Sataya Dolphin Reef tour promises a day of pure wonder, relaxation, and marine magic.
A Marsa Alam Tours representative will pick you up from your hotel in Port Ghalib. Transfer by private air-conditioned vehicle to Hamata Harbor (approx. 2 hours drive).
Upon arrival, board your comfortable boat and meet the crew. After a short safety briefing, you’ll receive your snorkeling equipment and be registered by marine authorities.
Relax on deck as you cruise across the shimmering Red Sea for about 2.5 hours to Shaab Sataya, also known as Dolphin Reef.
Jump into the lagoon for your first swim! Experience the thrill of seeing dozens of dolphins dancing and spinning in front of your eyes. This pristine reef is home to colorful corals and exotic fish found only in the Red Sea.
Enjoy a freshly cooked buffet lunch prepared by the crew as you relax in the sun and share stories from your dolphin encounter.
Take another dive into the warm waters for a second snorkeling session—more time to explore the coral gardens or swim once again with dolphins if they return to the lagoon.
Cruise back to Hamata Harbor, where your driver will be waiting to take you to your hotel in Port Ghalib. Arrival is expected around 6:30 PM.
