    Une expérience extraordinaire ! Plonger à Port Ghalib Marina était magique. Voir le Dugong parmi une multitude de poissons colorés était inoubliable. Les guides étaient excellents, mais j'aurais aimé plus de temps à chaque site.

    Ein absolutes Muss bei einem Besuch in Marsa Alam! Die Vielfalt der Fische wurde nur durch die Begegnung mit dem Seekuh Dugong übertroffen. Die Atmosphäre war entspannt, und das Team sehr professionell. Sehr zu empfehlen!
