Elite VIP Cruise with Seafood and BBQ Buffet Lunch in Hurghada
A four-deck floating retreat on the Red Sea, with guided snorkeling, dolphin spotting, and an open buffet lunch crafted from the sea.
The Hurghada Elite VIP Cruise delivers a full-day Red Sea experience aboard one of the most well-maintained and spaciously designed vessels operating out of Hurghada Marina. This is not a standard day trip — it is a structured journey combining reef exploration, wildlife encounters, and generous hospitality on the water.
Guests move between four distinct deck environments throughout the day, from open sun loungers on the upper deck to shaded mid-deck seating and two fully air-conditioned salon and dining decks. Waiter service runs continuously, delivering unlimited hot and cold drinks directly to wherever you are relaxing.
The snorkeling program is guided by trained professionals who accompany guests into the water at two separate reef sites, chosen for their coral quality and marine biodiversity. Between stops, the vessel heads north in search of wild dolphins in their natural habitat, an encounter that frequently rewards patient observers.
Lunch is served as a generous open buffet featuring soups, salads, and a choice of grilled proteins: BBQ chicken with Egyptian kofta, or grilled shrimps and oven-baked fish. The combination of reef, wildlife, and cuisine sets this cruise apart from standard group boat excursions in the region.

A second reef stop allows guests to explore a different section of coral habitat with continued guide support. Snorkeling equipment is provided for those who require it.
Guests gather on the dining deck for a full open buffet service featuring soups, salads, and a protein selection of either BBQ chicken with Egyptian kofta or grilled shrimps and oven-baked fish.
