Mahmya Island Snorkeling Trip – El Gouna

Few islands in the Red Sea feel as exclusive as Mahmya, and guests in El Gouna can reach it on this full-day yacht trip. Kids are welcome, and the quiet island makes a lovely change from the resort.

Mahmya is part of the protected Giftun islands area, and people love it for its peaceful mood. Your hour on the white beach is free for swimming in turquoise water or lying in the sun. Entry to the island is included, and so is lunch, which you eat right on Mahmya.

Getting there is easy. Our driver meets you at your hotel in El Gouna and takes you to the marina in Hurghada. A comfortable yacht with a sun deck is ready there. It sails daily at about 08:00, and the full trip lasts about 7 hours.

On the way, the yacht pauses twice at coral reefs. The snorkeling gear is provided, so you can explore bright fish and coral. First-timers and experienced snorkelers both enjoy these stops.

Drinks are covered all day: water, soft drinks, coffee and tea. The crew are professionals, and the boat carries safety equipment. Personal expenses, beach towels and underwater photos are not part of the package. After the trip, you are driven back to your hotel.

Good to know: please take your passport or a copy, since the port may check it. Swimwear, a towel and sunscreen belong in your bag too. Add a working phone number and an email address to your booking; the exact pickup time from your hotel is then sent on WhatsApp or Telegram.
