Tiran Island Snorkeling Experience by Yacht Sharm El Sheikh

Beautiful day, attentive and friendly guides, no pressure to sell you things, everything very pleasant and well organized. One of the best prices. Everything as described. No mandatory extras. Pleasant navigation and three stops for snorkeling. Compliments to the guide Mahmoud. Thanks to Stefania for assisting us with the sale. Recommended 💯

Blue Hole crew very kind and very helpful.

Everything was very well organized, from transportation to lunch; all the staff were very kind and helpful both on land and on the boat. Very nice, clean, and comfortable boat; it wasn't too crowded, and everyone had enough space. In the sea, even those who do not swim well feel safe with the guides who stay close with a life buoy to hold on to. Snorkeling in fantastic spots, many fish, and a beautiful reef. Highly recommended

An incredible experience and a truly wonderful day! Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish, including the transport. The boat staff were always attentive and made sure everyone felt comfortable and happy throughout the trip. The activities were very well arranged, and the food was absolutely delicious — with drinks available at all times. A big thank you to the entire team for everything. See you next time!

Chaos at the Port The day started with absolute chaos at the port. It was overcrowded, with nowhere to sit or even breathe properly. If you do go, bring plenty of water—you’ll need it. Onboard Experience The boat was packed beyond comfort, and it felt like a fight for a seat or a spot to rest between swims. We were picked up at 7:45am but didn’t actually depart until around 10:30am. Once onboard, we quickly realised that of around 35 passengers, only four of us were English. Everything was explained in Italian only, and the non-Italian guests were simply left in the dark. Snorkelling Stops We were told the first stop would be 1 hour 45 minutes away, but after just 30 minutes the boat stopped outside Sharks Bay—conveniently, right next to our own hotel’s house reef, where we had been snorkelling daily. We assumed this was just a warm-up stop for diving practice, but it turned out to be the main event. The second stop was even worse: poor visibility, a dangerously strong current, and no staff supervision. My travel partner was swept out about 30 metres by the current while staff sat smoking and did nothing. I had no choice but to jump in and help. The lack of safety was shocking. Communication & Transparency After lunch, one of the guides casually told us—only the English speakers—that “we can’t go to Tiran, too wavy,” and then went off for a nap. Later, we discovered other guests from our hotel had been to Tiran that same day with another company and said conditions were perfect. It felt like we had been scammed: paying extra for park entry and a promised trip to Tiran, only to be taken to easily accessible local reefs. Final Thoughts This company was disorganised, unsafe, and dismissive. We were misled, left uninformed, and treated as second-class passengers because we weren’t Italian. If you want a snorkelling trip, you’re far better off booking directly through your hotel’s dive club, where you’ll actually be looked after and get what you pay for.

Very good organization and top and professional staff. Nice boat. Simple but good meal

We booked this trip with high expectations to see the amazing reefs of Tiran, but unfortunately it turned into one of the worst excursions we’ve experienced.

Great experience, we ate very well, the staff very nice. The only thing is that the boats are a little too close.

Beautiful hike made in the family. Guide top. We had a wonderful day. Highly recommended for everyone

It was a wonderful experience, great lunch, we made three stops to snorkel everything as it was described, I highly recommend this experience
