Snorkeling accessible to all in Safaga in the Red Sea

Before your departure, check with the embassy or consulate regarding the entry and stay requirements for your destination country. You can also find this information on the France Diplomatie website ( https://www.diplomatie.gouv.fr/fr/dossiers-pays/ ).

In the case of flights with stopovers operated by different airlines, also check the entry requirements of the countries you are transiting through.

It is your responsibility to ensure that you are in compliance, particularly regarding the validity of your identity documents (

For example, some countries require your passport to be valid for at least six months after your return date. Consider visa requirements, necessary vaccinations, and health recommendations. And don't forget to take into account any customs restrictions and other potential requirements of your destination or transit country.

ℹ️ Information may change up to the departure date, remember to regularly check official websites.

We understand that recent geopolitical developments may cause concern. However, we want to reassure you that your safety and comfort are our top priority. We are closely monitoring the situation with local and international authorities and remain in constant contact with our teams on the ground. The main tourist areas, including our resorts, continue to operate normally and are largely secure. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns. We are here to support you and are committed to providing you with up-to-date information and personalized advice to ensure a worry-free trip to Egypt.

For example, you must have in your possession a passport valid for at least 6 months after the date of departure from Egypt or a national identity card plus 2 passport photos also valid for more than 6 months after your return date.

The basic kit, known as "PMT", is provided. It consists of a pair of full-foot fins, a mask and a snorkel.

If you have your own fins, mask, or snorkel, you can of course bring them. Full-face masks are also perfect for snorkeling in Egypt and can allow complete beginners, who don't like having their nose covered by a mask, to fully enjoy the activity.

The sun is strong in Egypt, and sunscreen damages the reefs. We recommend wearing lycra clothing with UV protection: it's the best defense against sunburn and a friend to our marine life.

For those who are more sensitive to the cold, a thin jumpsuit can make all the difference.

And for the youngest children, floats or a flotation vest are recommended.

Besides your swimsuit, it's best to bring something to protect you from the sun during the day (a sarong, hat, or cap) and from the cool evening air. Lightweight trousers and a sweatshirt or light sweater are often welcome at the end of the day when the temperature drops. If it's windy, you'll also appreciate being able to cover up a bit on the boat between dives!

For outings outside the hotel, it's best to wear long trousers and a t-shirt that covers the shoulders, for both men and women. Egyptians work in shorts or Bermuda shorts, but dress up for going out! You can, of course, treat yourself to a "gallabiah," the Egyptian djellaba. Comfort guaranteed!
