Red Sea Day Excursion

Super Giftun Island Boat Trip from Hurghada

Coral reefs, white-sand shores, and open water adventure on the Red Sea's most iconic island.


A full day aboard a two-deck boat brings you face to face with the best the Giftun Island snorkeling trip has to offer: vivid coral gardens, warm turquoise shallows, and a beach that rivals any in the world.

Departing from Hurghada with a hotel pickup included, you settle onto a spacious double-deck boat before the Red Sea opens up ahead. The ride itself is part of the experience, with calm waters and clear skies setting the tone for what follows.

Stops along the route include a dedicated snorkeling session above a thriving coral reef, where reef fish and sea life are visible without diving experience or special equipment. Water sport activities add an energetic interval before the final approach to Giftun Island.

The island's beach is one of those rare places where the sand is genuinely powdery white and the sea colour shifts from pale jade to deep blue within wading distance. A small shuttle boat transfers you ashore for free time to swim, relax, or simply absorb the surroundings before the return journey to Hurghada.

Back on board or at a designated area, guests can take part in water sport activities. Options cater to different comfort levels in the water.
