What to expect
The boat departs from central Sharm and heads out to Tiran Island at cruising speed. You'll have two designated stops where the crew anchors and you enter the water with provided equipment. Expect calm, shallow reef areas with good visibility on most days. The captain will brief you on entry and exit points. Between snorkel sessions, you'll have time to rest aboard, drink water, and take in the Red Sea views. The return journey follows the same route, arriving back at your hotel by early afternoon.
