“absolutely perfect day. the day was well organised with punctual pickup. the day was literally paradise. I would highly recommend this island as not too busy or overcrowded like the others. some people from our group went to other islands and said it was very busy. the food was really good and none of us had a bad belly from it. the snorkelling was very well done. staff worked hard all day. not too long of a day. I'd advise to take some snacks and some cash for tips. you have the option to buy photos too. the staff are really hard working and want you to enjoy every minute.…”

6.Elegance Yacht Cruise To Orange & Magawish island

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 70 reviews · from $53

You’ll cruise from Hurghada to Orange Bay and Magawish Island with snorkeling guides, seafood lunch, soft drinks, and hotel transfers. Guides including Abdull and Sayed help run the day, with dolphin sightings possible and a 5-minute parasailing option available when selected.

“Wir haben einen unvergesslichen Bootstrip zur Orange Bay und weiteren Inseln erlebt. Besonders beeindruckend waren die drei Schnorchelausflüge, bei denen wir wunderschöne Korallenriffe und zahlreiche bunte Fische sehen konnten – sogar Delfine durften wir beobachten! Die Guides waren sehr freundlich, humorvoll und stets um unser Wohl bemüht. Die Organisation an Bord war top und mit viel Herz gemacht. Absolut empfehlenswert! Ein kleiner Verbesserungsvorschlag: Die Kommunikation am Vorabend könnte klarer sein, insbesondere bezüglich des Treffpunkts. Ursprünglich sollten wir an der Hauptstraße abgeholt werden, was etwas unpraktisch war. Nach Rücksprache wurden wir dann aber pünktlich direkt an der Hotellobby abgeholt – vielen Dank dafür!Read more”
