A full-day sea adventure to the 'Maldives of the Red Sea' — white-sand islands, living coral, and lunch on board.
The Hamata Islands are the crown jewels of Egypt's southern Red Sea. Tucked inside the protected Wadi El Gemal National Park, these pristine islands have earned the nickname 'the Maldives of the Red Sea' for their dazzling white sand, emerald-and-turquoise water, and wonderfully rich marine life. Your day starts with an early-morning pickup and a comfortable drive to the marina, where the boat sets off on a scenic cruise along the coast. It stops at several beautiful spots where you can snorkel straight from the boat or wade in from the island beaches — the coral here is among the healthiest on the Egyptian coast, alive with turtles, grouper, trevally, and clouds of tropical fish. At midday, the boat anchors in a sheltered bay for a fresh lunch on board — typically grilled fish, salads, and fruit. The whole day is beautifully unhurried: snorkel when you wish, rest when you wish, and soak up some of the loveliest island scenery anywhere. We provide your comfortable land transfers in both directions; the boat, crew, meals, and snorkelling gear are arranged separately with the marina operators — and we're glad to recommend the most reliable ones.
