8 Days / 7 Nights - Dolphin Tour

Home / Itineraries 8 Days / 7 Nights - Dolphin Tour

Overview

An extremely luxurious and uniquely focused itinerary dedicated almost exclusively to the dolphin experience. It maximises time in the best and most protected dolphin hotspots of the southern Red Sea. The unique aspect of this itinerary is the concentration on four full days in the Shaab Sataya reef system in the Fury Shoals.

Here, the probability of encountering a school of spinner dolphins (up to 200 animals) is very high. The time can be used flexibly to see the dolphins in the calm morning and late afternoon hours when they are most active in the lagoon.

Sataya is not only a dolphin spot, but also an excellent diving area. The lagoon is protected by deep coral walls, and inside there is a sandy bottom and a variety of ergs (coral blocks) and small reef sections that are perfect for relaxed dives.
In addition to dolphins, large green sea turtles and blue-spotted stingrays are often found here on the sandy bottom.

    In the big lagoon of Sataya it is almost impossible not to meet dolphins. A little more luck it needs for Mobulas, the close relatives of the Mantas, who sometimes are likewise go. At the dropoff hammerheads, tiger sharks or Thunas are sometimes observed.

    The legendary reputation of Shaab Samadai rests on a school of about 60 spinner dolphins. But the nice dropoff and an extensive system of canyons make a dive there a memorable one.
