Pirate Sailing Boat to Orange Bay from Hurghada

If you want a day at sea with a bit of playfulness, the pirate sailing boat to Orange Bay is a good pick from Hurghada. The pirate-style boat suits families, couples and friends, and children in particular tend to enjoy it. The trip runs every day. A transfer bus collects you from your Hurghada hotel at around 09:00 and takes you to the marina, where the boat is waiting. The full outing lasts about seven hours, with plenty of time on the water.

As you sail across the clear Red Sea there are stops at selected snorkeling spots, where coral reefs and tropical fish wait just below the surface. A professional crew and safety equipment are on board throughout. The boat then continues to Orange Bay, a shallow turquoise bay with a sandy beach, where you have free time to swim, rest and take photos. How long you stay can vary with the boat schedule.

After the island you relax on deck, with lunch and soft drinks served on board, while the boat sails back toward Hurghada. Taxes and service charges are covered. Snorkeling equipment, towels, photos, videos, tips and personal expenses are not, so bring a towel and your own gear. Spots can change with the weather and sea conditions, and guests should follow the crew’s safety instructions.
