    Excellent location for snorkeling, lots of coral reefs and great variety of sea life. One of the lesser populated locations to dive and snorkel  more »

  • By Khaled Elsheikh
    Great place to spend a day out. Don't bother with the set menu meal they offer with the package. You over pay and the quality is pretty poor. The rest is great . Boats are clean, beach is pristine. Service is great
  • By Amir Farag
    One of my favourite places. It is out of this world. You can enjoy a swim or snorkeling. The food is good but quite pricey
