Looking for the best hotel for November in Marsu. I have been dreaming for many years, and, now, direct flights from Minsk are allowed
According to the budget, I’m still going to Utopia, Pennsy, a little more expensive than Maliki. We need an excellent reef without bans on swimming, dugongs and turtles would also be within walking distance, everything else is secondary. So that Nazran, Ras Katya, Makadi, Tower Bay are no worse. Thanks.

Yes, I read. But there some people need slides, others don't care about the budget. I have limited (due to flight bans over Ukraine, you need to pay extra fuel 90 dollars, PCR - 40, insurance against non-departure 20, visas 50. And 200 more to the cost of Tula.
Is it possible to meet a dugong in Maliki? Are Utopia and Maliki comparable in terms of reef?

For me, this is also a rhetorical question: What is the best hotel in Marsa Alam?
In November, Mars is more likely to experience cold and strong winds. I would recommend October.
In Malikiya (Abu Dabab Bay), the dugong has not been seen for a long time.
Check out the Three Corners Fayrouz Plaza Beach Resort, Marsa Mubarak Bay is within walking distance, there are dugong and turtles. Large green turtles also often swim in the lagoon of this hotel. And the reef is good.
Another best option is Shams Alam Beach Resort. Much has already been written about him.
A dugong has also been seen near The Three Corners Equinox Hotel. By the way, you can walk to it from Maliki.

In November, my husband's anniversary, I want to give a tour. Shams alam is not for sale. Lahmi is very expensive so far. The Equinox are relocated to Ferows. Only Coral has Ferouz, and a transfer to Mars last year charged 400 ye. If it is realistic to reach Mubarak from Maliki, then I will lean towards it. While the price is 1450 for November, but the other day a friend took it for 1250 for October

It is a long way to go from Maliki to Mubarak.
From Malikia, you can walk to the Equinox Hotel, in the bay of which the dugong swims.
And why are they moving from Equinox to Fayrouz?
Transfer from Marsa Alam Airport to Fayrouz is about 20 minutes.

Thanks for the answer! In ferouz (equinox) from Minsk carries only coral, from Hurghada. Why Belarusians are settled in Ferouz, I don’t know, I thought maybe it was being renovated?

This is one hotel chain Three Corners. Equinox 4 * only opened in the summer after quarantine. It is within walking distance of Abu Dabab Bay.
Fayrouz 5 * is a good hotel. It is near Marsa-Mubarak Bay. I like it, but I don't want to go there a third time.
And Malikia, in my opinion, has only one plus - it's location.
Hilton Marsa Alam NUBIAN in the same Abu Dabab bay, but a little expensive.

Yes, the Hilton is more expensive, at the beginning of the summer there was a good price for it. But I don't like that it doesn't have its own access to the sea

I'm leaning towards Maliki, as long as it's cheaper than the rest of the Dugonne variants. I will catch a cheaper tour. Could you advise when, where, where and how best to look for a dugong there? Any advice on snorkeling in general (the beach is big so you don't waste time)?

I will also consider Equinox because of the accessibility of the bay, but where is the dugong more often - in Maliki or Equinox? And in 3rd place is Wadi Lakhmi, if there are tours there. Who was, how is the quality and cost of alcohol there? They write that everything is paid. Or just take it with you?

In Abu Dabab, the dugong has long been gone, it can be found in the bay of the Equinox Hotel. In general, the most optimal Dugonevsky option is the Three Corners of Fairouz.
Well, what are some tips for snorkeling: there are corals along the edges of the bay, if the weather permits, swim up to the outer reef.
In the middle are turtles.
Wadi Lakhmi has been snickering a lot - he is hitting unrealistic prices. Soft all hotel, i.e. without alcohol (or for a fee, respectively).

Here one writes, he rested in Maliki in June:
swims fast, but on a motorboat it's not a problem to catch up. When I swam after him, we found him at first to the right around the turn of Equinox Bay, chewed grass, and then tried to break away from us and went at full throttle to Malikia and the second time we caught up with him between Equinox and Malikia.
Without a motorboat, the chances of seeing him are low. These are not turtles that are not shy there and at every turn.
But who knows where it will take him. A chance meeting is not ruled out in the bay itself near Malikia, next to the turtles.
I remembered the lifeguard on the beach from whom they take these excursions on a motorboat and claimed that he often sees a dugong in the bay on the right closer to Malikia in the morning.
Circled the place where he showed.

Still seen in Equinox Bay. As the author of the review himself writes, he can swim in Abu Dabab by accident. Of course, there are chances to meet him in this bay, but in the reviews over the past few years I don’t remember anything to write about meeting with him in Abu Dabab.

That is, either immediately go or swim (far?) To Equinox and from their beach, or is it better to take a motorboat? And another question, if you walk to the Equinox, you need shoes (there is no normal road, so that barefoot, in the hands of fins?), But where to put them then? I saw some swimmers in the back like bags, but I don’t know what it is and where to attach it?

If you are a good swimmer, then you can swim, the current is just in that direction. If you want with comfort, then you can agree on a motor boat.
Walking barefoot is overkill. Go normally, with you in your bag (sack, rucksack, etc.) equipment - fins, mask, wetsuit. Leave your things on the beach and swim calmly. We shared this when we went from the Equinox to Abu Dabab. I don't think there will be any problems (judging by the reviews).
We did this when we went to Au Dabab from the Equinox.

In Vali Lakhmi, 0.7 local whiskey costs 20 euros, 0.5 beer 4 euros. And in November, I think it is unlikely that you will swim in Lakhmi, there are strong winds in summer and it is almost constantly stormy.

While I was considering Malikia, she went up by $ 200 for a week, although it was too expensive for me anyway. If prices don't go down, I'll fly with Mars. Has anyone been to Dahab in a happy village? How is it compared to mars and charm?

Prices have gone up quite a bit now. But they can also drop sharply (as it was in the spring).

In Happy Life there is a special atmosphere of the Dahab freemen, good staff,
good food and, most importantly, night snorkeling was allowed until this year. Therefore, there was a pilgrimage of snorkelers there. This year, the night snork was covered tightly.
Therefore, the attractiveness of the hotel has fallen dramatically. The reef there is not very chic, Bedouins like to drive camels along the edge of the beach ...

To Maliki? Current direction from Malikia to Equinox.
Therefore, you can swim there and walk back.
If you swim in leggings and a rashguard, the best option is
"slippers in the ass"))) Flip flops or corals with the soles away from you
in leggings on the pope. It doesn’t interfere with swimming, the appearance, of course, falls, but the fish don’t care)))

Rashguard - Lycra T-shirt with long sleeves for swimming - against jellyfish, plankton and with SPF 50
In winter, Happy Life is not very good. The hotel is under the mountain, and the short winter day is even shorter, the sun sets behind the mountain earlier.
I can't tell you the price, now everything is expensive (((

We rested in the Hilton in July, there is a dugong in the Abu Dabbab bay. It lives on the side of Malikiya closer to the exit from the bay against two palm trees, it was met mainly at 8:00-9:00 and once around 12:00, it does not enter the bay close to the depth of 12-15 meters. A couple of times a meeting for 15 minutes. and twice they swam for more than an hour, though it took us far out to sea. Closer to the Maliki Pier, 4 dolphins flew by. At the exit from the bay, a whale shark with a dugong was picked up by divers from the Blue Ocean club, so there is a lot to see.
