Marsa Alam: Dolphin House Snorkeling

Sha'ab Samadai — known locally as "Dolphin House" — is a permanent home to a wild pod of spinner dolphins that have made this quiet stretch of the Red Sea their own. On this trip, you'll slip into the turquoise water and snorkel alongside them in their natural habitat, under strict no-touch, respectful-distance guidelines designed to keep them undisturbed. We keep a genuine, respectful distance at all times — these are free-roaming dolphins, not performers — which is exactly what makes the moment they glide past you feel real and unforgettable. Visibility at Samadai is some of the clearest in Egypt, so you'll get a genuinely good look as the pod moves through the water around your group. It's one of the best chances anywhere in the country to be in the water with wild dolphins on their own terms, and we design the whole experience to keep it safe for you and stress-free for them. The day includes three snorkeling stops: Dolphin House and two stops over the reef.
