Dolphin Reef Sataya
Tour Overview
Dolphin Reef Sataya – Swim with Dolphins in the Wild
If you've ever dreamed of swimming with dolphins in their natural environment, Dolphin Reef Sataya is your dream come true. Located off the coast of Hamata, Sataya is one of the most magical spots in the Red Sea, home to large pods of wild dolphins that often come to play and swim with snorkelers.
An Unforgettable Marine Experience
Departing from Hamata Port at around 9:00 a.m., the boat journey to Sataya takes approximately 2.5 hours. Upon arrival, you’ll board a speedboat that brings you closer to the dolphins. You’ll enjoy 30–40 minutes of snorkeling alongside these intelligent and graceful creatures, often in large groups. Throughout the experience, the speedboat may shift locations to follow dolphin pods, ensuring maximum interaction. Afterward, you return to the main boat for a freshly prepared lunch, followed by another snorkeling session on the stunning coral reefs of the Red Sea.
Practical Information
