The idea

One Day. Several Red Sea Experiences.

Island Hopping is designed for guests who want to experience more than a single destination. Combine island time, different snorkelling stops, a peaceful sandbank and plenty of time to relax on your private boat into one unhurried day on the Red Sea.

Possible island destinations include Ozirea, Magawish, Orange Bay and Paradise Island. Your route is shaped together with the captain and adapted to your preferences. Spend longer where you feel most comfortable, enjoy the journey between stops or simply relax on board — the day does not follow a fixed itinerary.

Islands & sandbanks

From island shores to untouched sandbanks
