Semi Submarine Underwater Tour from Hurghada
Explore the Red Sea's vibrant marine world without ever getting wet
The Semi Submarine Underwater Tour offers a rare window into the Red Sea's most celebrated coral gardens and marine life, all from the comfort of a climate-controlled cabin. Large panoramic windows and personal swiveling chairs place you face-to-face with a living reef ecosystem that stretches below the surface. This tour departs from multiple locations including Hurghada, Safaga, Soma Bay, Makadi, and El Gouna, making it accessible to visitors across the region.
Guests settle into the air-conditioned lower deck as the vessel glides above coral formations teeming with reef fish, sea turtles, and other native marine species. The panoramic windows provide an unobstructed view, ideal for photography and video without the need for diving experience or special equipment. Each visit is designed to be relaxing, informative, and suitable for all fitness levels.
An optional short snorkeling stop is included for those who wish to enter the water and experience the reef more directly. Participants are reminded not to touch or stand on the corals, as the reef ecosystem is fragile and protected. Bringing a towel is recommended if you plan to take part in the snorkeling segment.

Tour Itinerary
A transfer collects guests from their hotel or the designated marina meeting point in Hurghada, Safaga, Soma Bay, Makadi, or El Gouna. Guests are briefed on safety guidelines and reef conservation rules before boarding.
Guests descend into the air-conditioned lower deck and take their seats in personal swiveling chairs positioned beside large panoramic windows. The vessel begins its slow, guided passage above the reef.
As the submarine moves through the reef zone, guests observe corals, reef fish, and other marine species through the panoramic windows. Photography and video capture are encouraged throughout this segment.
The vessel pauses to allow guests who wish to enter the water to snorkel briefly around the reef area. Participants are reminded to avoid touching or standing on corals during this stop.
After the snorkeling stop, the semi submarine returns to the marina and guests are transferred back to their hotels. The full experience, including transfers, lasts approximately three hours.
