Picture yourself cruising across the Red Sea as the afternoon light softens, the warm air gives way to a refreshing sea breeze, and the water begins to glow in shades of turquoise and gold.

This sunset experience is designed for travelers who want something more atmospheric than a standard morning snorkeling trip. Depart later in the day, avoid the strongest midday heat, and enjoy a typically calmer setting after many morning boats have begun leaving the area.

Cruise toward Marsa Mubarak, a beautiful natural bay known for its coral reefs, seagrass meadows, sea turtles, and visits from the elusive dugong. After a snorkeling briefing, follow your guide into the clear water and discover the bay’s underwater world. Look for graceful turtles swimming or feeding above the seagrass while the crew searches for signs of a dugong.

After snorkeling, return to the boat and relax with fresh fruit and light snacks. Feel the evening breeze across the deck while the sun moves closer to the horizon and the Red Sea changes color around you.

This is the perfect moment to slow down, enjoy the peaceful atmosphere, and capture beautiful golden-hour photographs with the sea and sunset behind you. The softer light creates memorable photographs for couples, families, friends, and anyone celebrating a special moment in Marsa Alam.

Return to Port Ghalib as the marina begins to light up for the evening. Enjoy approximately one hour of independent free time to walk beside the waterfront, browse the shops, stop at a café, or take more photographs before returning to the clearly designated meeting point.

Turtles and dugongs are wild animals, so sightings cannot be guaranteed. The route may be adjusted according to sea and weather conditions.
