Sharm El Sheikh Glass Bottom Boat Coastal Tour
The Red Sea's coral gardens, seen from a seat below the waves.
Overview
The Red Sea keeps its most dazzling gardens just beneath the surface — and you don't have to swim a stroke to see them. Stepping aboard your Seascope semi-submarine off Sharm El Sheikh, you take a seat on the lower deck, where the water climbs past a wall of wide panoramic windows and the peninsula's coastline stretches out above.
As the boat glides over the reef, the view turns electric. Shoals of orange anthias shimmer over the coral, a parrotfish grazes the rock, and every so often something larger drifts by in the blue. The air-conditioning hums softly around you, the light shifts from turquoise to deep indigo, and the whole underwater world unfolds in comfort — no mask, no fins, nothing to do but watch.
These are the same coral gardens that make Sharm one of the world's great diving destinations, opened up here to everyone. The grandparent who never learned to swim, the child pressing a palm to the glass, the traveller who simply wants to stay dry — all of them get the Red Sea on its own terms, seen the easy way. It surprises people who thought a boat trip was just a boat trip.
Your day begins and ends at your hotel, with roundtrip transfers included, so there's nothing to arrange but showing up. Bottled water is on board, the cabin stays shaded and cool, and the whole outing runs about three hours door to door — a relaxed, family-friendly window onto the Red Sea that slips easily into any beach holiday.

Was a great experience, guide picked us up on time, minibus was comfortable snd air conditioned. submarine trip was fun and interesting, we got to see lots of different fish and coral. We would definately recommend to others.
We had a fantastic time. We had to change our booking at the last minute and there were no problems at all. The submarine was amazing. A must for anyone that prefers not to snorkel... You still get to see the wonderful underwater life. I would highly recommend.
A great trip where we saw some amazing fish at close quarters. The service was very efficient and we were collected and dropped off at our hotel. Recommended even if you go snorkelling as you get a different perspective.
Très bonne activité, notre guide AbdAllah était génial. Il nous a tout expliqué et a été très prévenant envers nous. Nous avons été récupéré à l’heure à notre hôtel et avons été déposé dans un petit café le temps que notre bateau soit prêt. Nous avons pris des jus frais (la conso n’était pas obligatoire, sinon comptez environ 20€ pour 3 personnes). Le tour en bateau était très sympa, nous avons vu de nombreux poissons et des coraux. Idéal lorsque vous êtes avec des enfants pour qu’ils puissent profiter de la vue sous l’eau. Ambiance familiale, très sympathique, je recommande.
A lot better than expected! We thought it would just have a few windows, but the whole length of the boat had floor to ceiling windows. Our 3 year old loved seeing all the fish!
