Dolphin House Sataya Reef Snorkeling Cruise from Marsa Alam

We saw many dolphins, it was very beautiful... BUT it was only 30-45 minutes and 30-44 minutes of coral. The ship was swaying a lot because it was very windy. Every guest had to vomit and there was fear for their lives.

The trip to Sataya Reef was an experience all by itself. We were reliably picked up from the JAZ Neo Reef Marsa at 5am. Hamata Port is about 3 hours away by shuttle. The Shuttel collects more tourists from other hotels along the way. The ride is already an independent experience. Through the desert with good and bad roads, small and big cities, barracks and various road controls. Once on site, we take a yacht with about 40 people out to sea. The crew was super friendly. The snorkeling equipment and life jackets are included, but already very worn. Please consider sufficient sun protection. There were some who were completely burned in the evening. The national park costs an additional €15 per person (about €13 more than for locals). The rest is the additional service fee for the organizer. The fee is paid on the boat in cash. Some people have also paid in dollars. A neoprene can be rented for an additional 10€ per person. However, the water was warm enough at the end of April. We were about 45 minutes with dolphins snorkeling. On site, about 15 - 20 other yachts have anchored. There were correspondingly many people in the water. Nevertheless, we have seen some spinner dolphins. Afterwards we had lunch on the boat on site. The food was included and really worth it. Everyone got fed up. Drinks (tea, coffee, sprite, Pepsi, water) in the 70ml cup were included. Drinks are available throughout the ride. Afterwards we could choose whether to go back to the dolphins or snorkel on the reef. We've chosen the dolphins. That was another real highlight. Significantly fewer people in the water and real schools of dolphins. Totally breathtaking. On the boat you can buy photos and videos of the day on the way back. Unfortunately, we were only on a 6 second clip on the edge, so we thankfully declined. The package costs 30 - 35€. Depending on who negotiates and pays. For others, there were significantly more shots. We recommend simply taking an actioncam with you. Definitely worth remembering. Afterwards we went back to Hamata by boat for 2.5 hours and from there we took the shuttle back to the hotel for about 3 hours. We were back around 7:30. A great trip, but a really long day.

Great day spent among dolphins. Very friendly crew and always available. Transfer to the hotel impeccable.

Everything worked from A-Z!!!

The drive is quite far. But you will definitely see dolphins! The crew is nice, and thanks eslam for still making me look underwater 🙈

Long trip on poor road to a smart boat. Extra €15 for park fees not made clear at time of booking. 2 hours to the reef. 3 boats with up to 50 people each, so it's not an intimate experience. Good lunch. It's still worth the trip to be in the water with dozens of dolphins playing, showing off, and flirting. Amazing.

It was a great day everything neatly arranged. We've seen a lot of dolphins up close. Thank you for this

The experience was great. They pick us up from the hotel, we arrive at a small port, then we take a boat heading south. I think we drove 40 km south. We arrived, at the site where we swam with dolphins for a long time, then we returned to the boat to eat. The meal was great. we finally returned, diving, either in the corals to observe the reefs or to swim with the dolphins. finally left and returned to the port then the guides took us back to the hotel. I have had many experiences like this, usually there are lots of boats, lots of tourists and boats do not respect the environment. This exit was completely different. There was little boat it was good and people were paying attention. The crew is super nice, and pay attention that everything goes well. I strongly recommend this experience for people who want to be quiet, swim with dolphins and not invade tourists.

The Dolphin House Sataya Reef snorkeling cruise from Marsa Alam was a serene and unforgettable experience. We glided over crystal-clear waters, met playful dolphins, and explored vibrant coral gardens. The crew was professional and caring, and lunch onboard was freshly prepared and delicious. A must-do for nature lovers looking for a relaxed and dreamy day out on the Red Sea.

Because we can't pay on the platform, we were given the same preferential price as the platform after contacting the supplier, which can be said to be the lowest price on the network. I really saw the dolphins and it felt like I was going into the dolphins' house. A very pleasant travel experience.
