Submarine (Sindbad)
Overview
Discover the Red Sea without getting wet on the Sindbad Submarine, the only submarine in the Middle East. This easy, family-friendly experience is ideal for non-divers who want a close-up view of coral reefs and colorful marine life near Hurghada.
🗺️ What to Expect
Your adventure begins with hotel pick-up in Hurghada, followed by a transfer to the port at Sindbad Hotel. Before boarding, you will have time to explore a small marine museum, a fun warm-up that showcases the variety of sea creatures living in the Red Sea.
When it is time to depart, you will take a short catamaran ride out to the submarine in open water. Inside the cabin, you can settle into your seat and enjoy the view through 18 round windows as the submarine descends to around 25 meters. Along the route, an experienced captain selects the best viewing spots near Hurghada, where the corals appear vivid and undisturbed. To make the experience even more exciting, professional divers accompany the submarine and feed fish right in front of your window, bringing the underwater world impressively close.
After the tour, you will return by boat and then transfer back to your hotel.
