Mahmya Island Snorkelling and Beach Escape

You will be picked up by the representative from your resort in Hurghada for an awesome day trip to Mahmya, boarding one of two Mahmya boats and sailing for around one hour to the island. Mahmya Beach lies on the southern shores of Giftun Island National Park, off the coast of Hurghada. Mahmya in Arabic means "Protected Area".
To protect the coral reef and its marine inhabitants, the boats moor at buoys off the pristine bay, and you will be taken to the shore by smaller boats.
Land on the island, where you are free to snorkel around the impressive coral heads scattered in the clear lagoon, walk along the sandy beach, challenge other guests to beach volleyball, or relax on the pure white beach. Free Wi-Fi is available in the Lounge Area on Mahmya Island, which also has an Aqua Trampoline for kids.
Enjoy lunch at the restaurant, with seafood and Italian specialities, and later in the day, you can enjoy drinks at the bar.
Sail back from Mahmya Island to the marina, where you will be met and assisted, then transferred to your hotel in Hurghada for free time at leisure and a peaceful overnight stay.
