Semi-submarine - Hurghada reefs

The semi-submarine is a conventional surface craft whose hull holds a submerged cabin fitted with wide portholes. From the benches, you watch the reefs at fish level, a few metres below the surface, without ever getting wet.

The crossing reaches a protected area near the coast in about ten minutes, where the boat glides slowly above the coral heads. Hard and soft corals, shoals of parrotfish, surgeonfish, sergeant-majors and clownfish, and sometimes a turtle grazing on the seagrass. A guide provides commentary and points out the species. It's the formula for those who don't swim, can't get on with a snorkel, or want to share the experience with young children or seniors.

Good to know: the outing runs every day across four time slots, 8am to 11am, 11am to 1pm, 1pm to 3pm and 3pm to 5pm, with exact times set by your Hurghada hotel. Count two hours in all, transfer included. Full price from age 11, half price for children aged 5 to 11 with an adult, free under 5. The child rate is applied when we confirm your booking.
