    Incroyable! Nous avons passé un moment merveilleux à nager parmi les dauphins. La vue était spectaculaire avec tous ces dauphins jouant autour de nous. C’est une expérience à ne pas manquer si vous êtes à El Quseir.

    Ein unvergessliches Erlebnis! Die Schnorcheltour am Satayh „Dolphin Reef“ war einfach fantastisch. Die Delfine sind so nah geschwommen und es war großartig, sie in ihrem natürlichen Lebensraum zu sehen. Sehr zu empfehlen!
