Eden Island Snorkeling adventure from Hurghada.

A1toureg representative will pick you up from your resort in Hurghada for an awesome day trip to Eden Island, boarding one of two Eden Island boats. Discover the unique Eden Island in the Red Sea, part of the protected Giftun Island National Park just off the coast of Hurghada. This full-day tour includes round-trip transfers by air-conditioned vehicle directly from your hotel and a 1-hour sailing tour.

Following your transfer, set sail on the turquoise waters aboard a comfortable boat. Marvel at the views of the white sand beaches and palm-thatched beach huts. Soak up the Red Sea sun while watching for playful dolphins along the way. Upon arrival at Eden Island, you are free to snorkel among the impressive coral heads of the clear lagoon. Relax on the beach and swim in the crystal-clear waters. Eden Island is located on the southern shores of the Giftun Island National Park, off the coast of Hurghada.

Eden in Arabic means “protected area.” To safeguard the coral reef and its marine inhabitants, the boats moor at buoys off the pristine bay, and smaller boats will take you to the shore. Enjoy lunch at the restaurant, where seafood and Italian specialties will be served, along with drinks available from the bar throughout the day. Maintained under strict conservation guidelines, Eden Island is the perfect getaway from the urban sprawl of Hurghada, offering peace and privacy for all ages. Glass-bottomed boats are available for rent, allowing you to observe the underwater world without getting (too) wet!

At the end of the day, sail back to the marina for a transfer to your hotel. The price for this incredible experience is 90$.
