Meereswanderungen in Scharm El-Scheich

Solo traveler here—didn’t feel awkward at all. The group was small (just 7 people) and the guide made sure everyone chatted. Saw the most EPIC coral formations, plus a sea turtle! They even had ginger tea for after the swim (nice touch). Bring a towel and change of clothes, because you’ll be soaked by the end. Ten outta ten.

Went with my wife and 8yo son, and it was mostly great. My son was a bit scared at first but the crew calmed him down and let him steer the boat for a second (he was THRILLED). Water was clear and warm. Only complaint—the masks were a bit foggy, maybe need new ones. Otherwise, really fun family day.

Booked a last minute trip for our anniversary. Boat left a bit late, so we had to wait around in the sun (bring a hat!!). But once we got going, wow—the water’s every shade of blue. Crew were smiley and took some fun pics of us together (just ask). Got to see a school of parrotfish and a turtle. Wish the ride back was less bumpy, but I guess that’s part of the adventure.

Booked for my birthday with two mates. Boat was newer than I expected, had Bluetooth speakers so we could put on our own playlist. Snorkeling spots were GORGEOUS, though we didn’t see any turtles (bummer). Crew gave us watermelon and water after. Would do again, maybe try a sunset trip next time.

Honestly had such a BLAST on this speedboat trip out to Tiran Island! Just me and my partner and a couple of randoms, but everyone was vibing. Our guide, Kareem, was super chill and kept making jokes. I was a little nervous about snorkeling (I’m not a strong swimmer) but they had float vests and were patient with me. Saw soooo many colorful fish, like swimming in an aquarium, and one turtle just hanging out by the coral. Water was crystal clear. Only downside was the sun—bring double sunscreen, I got so burned! Still, def worth it. Would go again for sure.

This was the highlight of our Egypt trip! Went with my boyfriend and neither of us had snorkeled before, but the guide explained everything and double checked our gear. The speedboat is soooo much fun—felt like a movie. We saw clownfish (like Nemo!) and a big pufferfish. The sun gets HOT midday, so try to book an early slot if you can. Totally recommend this trip for couples or anyone wanting a bit of adventure.
