1) Orange-Island-snorkeling-Trip-from-Makadi
Enjoy a relaxing day swimming, snorkelling and sunbathing on a boat cruise to Orange Bay Giftun Island from Makadi where you will discover crystal clear blue water of the Red Sea, lagoons and colourful coral reefs. You will be picked up from your hotel at approximately 8.00 am (exact details will be confirmed locally), and then you will drive to the marine jetty where you will get on the boat. Sail for (45 mins) by boat towards the east of Makadi, until reaching the first place which is actually a perfect site to snorkel or just swim where a lot of coral reefs and fishes are there. Then continue to sail towards Orange Bay (Orange Bay is one of the most beautiful beaches located near Makadi). You will spend there around 2 hours to enjoy and see an amazing white sand beach, the island offers all kind of reliable services to make you feel at home and offers a special play area for children. Then continue to sail to go for the second spot for snorkelling after relaxing for 2 hours on the island, where you are going to make a second stop for great snorkelling or swim. Lunch will be ready on the boat before making the last stop (each stop about 45 mins). By the end of the day, you will sail back to the jetty of Makadi (around 4.00 pm) where you will find the van waiting to give you a lift back to your hotel.
