Hamata Islands Snorkeling Trip from Marsa Alam
Hamata Islands Snorkeling Trip from Marsa Alam
A protected corner of the Red Sea where the reefs run wild and the white-sand islands are yours alone.
Hamata's Qulaan archipelago is one of the Red Sea's last protected wildernesses — a national park of mangroves, nesting birds and reefs kept deliberately remote. What you snorkel over here still looks the way the sea did a century ago.
Best for: Families, first-time snorkelers and nature lovers craving untouched reefs
Discover the unspoiled beauty of the Hamata Islands on a full-day snorkeling adventure from Marsa Alam. Cruise across the crystal-clear waters of the Red Sea and explore one of Egypt's most beautiful marine areas, famous for its pristine beaches, vibrant coral reefs, and abundant sea life.
Your day begins with a comfortable hotel pickup and transfer to the marina, where you'll board a spacious boat and set sail toward the Hamata Islands.
Enjoy two guided snorkeling stops at carefully selected coral reefs, where you'll have the chance to swim among colorful tropical fish and admire the spectacular underwater scenery. Whether you're an experienced snorkeler or trying it for the first time, the calm waters make this an unforgettable experience.
You'll also have free time to relax on the soft, white-sand beaches of the Hamata Islands, take in the peaceful surroundings, or enjoy the crystal-clear turquoise waters.

Nice trip . It suppose to be in English but it was most in Italian language. That’s the only minus . Beautiful reef and qulaan island. Snoorkling with special guide was safe .
Bellissima esperienza! C’è stata un po’ di confusione nel trasporto dall’hotel al porto ma nonostante ciò l’escursione all’isola Hamata la consiglio vivamente! Barca molto grande e spaziosa, con ombra per tutti. I ragazzi tutti gentili. Abbiamo visto tanti coralli colorati e abbiamo visto anche i delfini!
L’activité s’est très bien déroulé, de A à Z. Les guides sont géniaux, très à l’écoute, toujours là pour répondre aux questions ou pour aider si besoin. Nous étions une vingtaine de personnes pour 4 guides, les guides sont toujours prêt à rigoler en plus de leurs capacités à parler plusieurs langues c’est très facile de communiquer avec eux. Lors des moments de plongée ils forment des petits groupes qui partent avec un guide. Le repas est un buffet donc il y a du choix pour tout le monde et c’est assez bon. Nous n’aurions pas pu espérer mieux de cette journée nous avons eu la chance de voir des dauphins en prime !
Der guidw Guido war super nett.Er hat sich beim ersten halt um mich gekümmert und mir die Angst vorm einsteigen in das Schlauchboot genommen auch das ins Wasser gehen war mit ihm ganz einfach er hat sich wunderbar um meine Tochter gekümmert. Auch das Essen an Board war reichlich und sehr schmackhaft.Da wir am ersten halt zu lange gelegen haben wir nur zwei Schnorchel stops gehabt das war etwas schade.Bei Ankunft im Hafen haben sich dann noch Delphine gezeigt.Alles in allem ein schöner Tag. Der Transport war etwas lang mit mehr als 3 Stunden. Der Fahrer konnte teilweise nur mit 10 kmh fahren wegen absolut gruseligen Straßen Verhältnissen. Vielen Dank für den schönen Tag.
Hallo, die Tour heute war echt schön, obwohl Anreise und Abreise fast 2 Stunden gedauert hat. Die Yacht war gut. Der Tourguide und die Crew waren toll. Wir haben an drei Stellen fast 2 Stunden Schnorchelzeit gehabt. Mehr war auch nicht nötig. Riff und Strand waren super. Vielleicht müsste man gestaffelt hinfahren. Denn es war voll am Strand. Nicht desto trotz war es ein super Ausflug. Danke!
