Tour Highlights:
Tiran Island by yacht from Sharm El Sheikh
Why is a one-day yacht excursion to the Tiran Island Nature Reserve so popular among tourists? Everything is very simple – an absolutely wild, picturesque reef, in places where you can watch the life of huge fish and turtles, and if you are really lucky, then perhaps you will be lucky enough to see wild dolphins! But no less than this, tourists are very attracted to the wreckage of ships that crashed on the local reefs, decades ago. In the strait between Sharm El Sheikh and Tiran Island there are four coral reefs: Jackson, Gordon, Woodhouse and Thomas. Named after English officers, all (except Gordon Reef) are sheer walls lined with magnificent corals. Since September 1981, the Panamanian merchant ship Lullia has been lying on the Gordon Reef, leaning on the port side. And in December 1981, another merchant ship, the Cypriot Lara, landed on Jackson Reef.
Dear tourists, please note:

– Diving optional +£10 per person for one dive for 15 minutes to 8 meters depth. The price is valid when booking on website.

Program Tiran Island by yacht from Sharm El Sheikh:
– Pick up from your hotel
Our transfer will pick you up from your hotel at approximately 08:00 in the morning (after booking your seats, we will notify you of the exact time) and deliver you to the port. There you can rent the necessary equipment for swimming: fins and thermal suits (optional), since we will provide you with masks and vests free of charge! Also, if you have personal swimming equipment, you can take them with you.
– Tiran island snorkeling
Then, after boarding the yacht, leaving the port and contemplating Sharm El Sheikh from the sea, the guests of the yacht will be briefed and informed about the program of the day. Soon after the end of the briefing, you will have two stops in the open sea for swimming and diving (optional diving for an additional fee of $10 per person) near wild coral reefs and, if weather permits, one stop near the “Wrecked Ship”. Let us remind you that on the trip you will be accompanied by professional diving and snorkeling guides, as well as photographers (photos of which you can purchase for an additional fee if desired). Each stop will take on average 30-40 minutes. If you don’t dive, you can just swim along the coral reef with a mask or sunbathe on a yacht.
– Lunch time
After the second stop, lunch will be waiting for you (in the form of a buffet) prepared right on the yacht overlooking the expanses of the island of Tirana! Amazing beauty! We also remind you that non-alcoholic drinks (water, tea, coffee, Sprite, Coca-Cola) are available throughout the day in unlimited quantities.
– Return back
After the third stop we return to the port, passing the entire city of Sharm El Sheikh from the sea..
Our transfer will take you from the port to the hotel.
Estimated time of return to the hotel is 17:00-17:30.
