What you’ll see from the boat Our snorkeling trips combine a pleasant boat ride along the Israeli coast of the Red Sea with snorkeling at one or two of the best spots in Eilat. On the way to the snorkeling site, you'll see the entire Israeli coastline with its colorful hills, to the east the Jordanian coast with the mountains of biblical Edom, and in the South the Sinai mountains drop down and touch the blue of the sea. On most days even Saudia Arabia is visible in the distance.

What you’ll see in the sea Fun things that are very often seen include many species of reef fish, such as parrot fish, butterfly fish, triggerfish, clownfish or larger fish like groupers or moray eels, all kinds of weird fish scorpionfish, stonefish and lionfish, or the occasional blue spotted stingray or octopus and a lot more creatures.

How it works We’ll meet at the boat, fit masks and fins and leave the marina. Once we arrive at the snorkeling spot, the skipper will give you a detailed briefing about the site and safety procedures. Experienced snorkelers can snorkel on their own. If you are new to snorkeling or prefer to be accompanied, we’ll provide a snorkeling guide upon your request and at an additional fee. Please let us know in advance when booking the trip. Also floating devices will be on board for those who like to use them. Our standard tour takes about three hours and includes one snorkeling stop, but we're happy to accommodate requests for longer tours. An in-water snorkeling guide can be arranged for NIS 400. Rental of mask, snorkel and fins, floating devices is included. Also the use of the kayak is at no extra charge. Just let us know in advance if you are interesting in kayaking to make sure the kayak is on board.

All tours are offered Sun-Fri except sunset and evening cruises (Sun-Thurs)
