Our representative will pick you up from your resort in Hurghada to take you for an awesome day trip to Mahmya.
We will be boarding one of two Mahmya boats, and sail for around one hour to the island. Mahmya Beach is on the southern shores of the 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.
Once you have landed on the island, you are free to snorkel on the impressive coral heads scattered in the clear lagoon, have a walk along the sandy beach, take on other guests at beach volleyball, or just relax on the pure white beach.
A free Wi-Fi is also available in the Lounge area on Mahmya Island with Aqua Trampoline for kids. Enjoy lunch at the restaurant, with seafood and Italian specialties, and later in the day you can enjoy drinks at the bar.
Finally you will 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 peaceful overnight stay.
