Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt · 8h · €45 per person for a full boat day of snorkelling with lunch, fins and mask, web price · EN · IT
I don’t think I have dived from a fancier boat (apart from a livaboard) nor being cooked a delicious hot lunch in between dives. These guys are superb! The dive briefings were so clear I felt like I would know where I was going on my own.
What is this tour like?
This is Dive In's snorkelling day for people who are not diving: a boat out of Ras Um Sid for a full day on the reefs, with lunch and the fins and mask supplied. The price list shows two columns — €50 booked on site, €45 booked in advance at the web rate.
The centre in Al Fanar holds 4.9 on Google from 269 reviews (as of 3 September 2026) and works in English and Italian. The one thing that is not covered is the pier side: boarding and marine park fees are not included and are collected on the day. The list does print amounts, but ambiguously: the mandatory boarding plus marine park ticket appears as 20 € in one column and 10 in the other, with a footnote reading 'Dal 1 giu. 26', so we confirm the figure in writing before booking. Departure time and the anchorages depend on the port and the weather, and are confirmed by the operator with the booking.

- Lunch is included, unlike on most Sharm snorkelling boats
- Fins and mask supplied by the centre
- €45 web price against €50 at the desk
