About this activity

Spend a full day snorkeling at Dolphin House Reef, a pristine lagoon habitat in the Red Sea where Spinner Dolphins and tropical fish thrive among coral formations. This 8-hour adventure combines guided reef exploration, a freshly prepared lunch at sea, and visits to multiple snorkeling sites with caves and coral gardens, rounded out by comfortable hotel transfers.

Discover the beauty of the Red Sea with a snorkeling trip to the famous Dolphin House Reef in Marsa Alam. This vibrant reef, nestled within a large lagoon, is a natural habitat for Spinner Dolphins and a wide variety of colorful tropical fish.

Your day begins with a comfortable boat ride, taking about two to two and a half hours to reach the dolphin house. Once there, enjoy your first snorkeling session, led by a professional guide who will help you explore the crystal-clear waters and marine life surrounding you.

After snorkeling, relax on board with a freshly prepared lunch, served while you take in the sea breeze and the scenic views. In the afternoon, you’ll visit additional snorkeling spots featuring coral gardens, caves, & tunnels rich in marine biodiversity.
Refresh yourself with unlimited drinks throughout the trip. As the day winds down, you'll head back to shore and be comfortably transferred to your hotel, ending a perfect day of sea, sun, and adventure.

Insider tips

  • Arrive early at your hotel for pickup to secure a good spot on the boat and maximize time at the reef
  • The boat ride to Dolphin House is long but scenic—bring a book or enjoy the sea views; dolphins are most active in morning hours
  • Wear reef-safe sunscreen and a rash guard to protect skin and marine life; the sun reflects intensely off the water
  • If prone to seasickness, take preventative medication before departure, as the journey involves open-water navigation

  • Hotel transfers are included from Marsa Alam accommodations; confirm pickup location and time with your operator
  • Snorkeling is guided but non-mandatory—strong swimmers and beginners alike are accommodated with professional oversight
