Abu Dabbab Snorkeling Trip from Hurghada

Product Description

Plaza Abu Dabbab from Hurghada — Snorkeling with Turtles & Dugongs

Escape the ordinary and discover one of the Red Sea’s most beautiful coastal treasures on a full-day trip to Abu Dabbab Bay from Hurghada. This pristine nature reserve, located about 250 km south of Hurghada near Marsa Alam, is famous for its resident population of green sea turtles and, with some luck, the rare and gentle dugong (sea cow).

The journey begins early in the morning with a comfortable pickup from your hotel. After a scenic drive along the Red Sea coast (approximately 2.5–3 hours), you’ll arrive at the stunning sandy beach of Abu Dabbab, known for its crystal-clear, shallow waters and vibrant coral reefs.

Snorkeling with Sea Turtles and Dugongs

The bay is a unique ecosystem with seagrass meadows that attract green sea turtles frequently spotted in the bay. You’ll have the incredible opportunity to snorkel alongside these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat. The bay also has two main snorkeling spots: one side is perfect for spotting turtles in the seagrass, while the other features a beautiful coral reef teeming with colorful fish — including parrotfish, surgeonfish, clownfish, and moray eels. With some luck, you might even encounter a dugong.

Relaxation on a Pristine Beach

Abu Dabbab is not only about snorkeling. The beach itself is one of the most beautiful in the Marsa Alam region, offering soft golden sand and warm, turquoise waters. You can relax on a sun lounger, swim in the calm sea, or simply enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of this protected nature reserve. A delicious buffet lunch is served on the beach, with drinks during the tour.
