The experience
Spend a full day at Mahmya, the managed island beach on Giftun reached by boat from Hurghada. The route gives you one beach base, with a snorkeling outing and lunch built around the stay.
The crossing separates the resort coast from Giftun’s sand and open sea. Once ashore, use the free time for the beach and optional swimming, returning to the meeting point for the scheduled reef activity. The character of the day comes from that balance: time to settle on the sand as well as a chance to look below the surface, without a succession of different beach admissions.
Mahmya Island and Mahmya Beach in Hurghada are different locations; this request is for the boat excursion to Giftun. Confirm the actual island ticket, shade and seating arrangements, snorkeling gear and any guiding before departure. Lunch is in the proposed package, while equipment, transfers and conservation charges require explicit confirmation. Allow approximately eight hours including the boat journey and breaks. The operator sets the sequence and available water activities for the day’s conditions.
