A very comfortable tour. There were about 20 people on the yacht. Beautiful snorkeling spots - 2 swimming stops, lunch. After lunch, some of the tourists sailed on a boat to Orange Bay Island and after 25 minutes we were landed on Paradise Island, where we spent 2 hours. The island has good sand, it is possible to swim (you don’t need to go to the depth for a long time). Children can ride on inflatable slides right in the sea near the shore. Very comfortable umbrellas. You could even say tents.

We decided to visit once - for show, since we take sea excursions more for diving in beautiful places, and here everyone who was shouting with one voice - it’s beautiful like in the Bounty advertisement (which I personally argue with), but beautiful, but not “AHHH! ! ! ", most likely people who didn’t go further than the South Coast have such impressions, I don’t show off, I just saw more beautiful places before, so I didn’t see anything special. The water temperature is not much different from the hotel beach, although they promised 28-29 degrees, snorkeled on the beach - a lot of garbage - bags of juice chips and every little thing left by tourists.

Although not the first time in Egypt, but went to Paradise Island for the first time. In the morning we were taken from the hotel to the yacht, and the yacht took us to the island). There were two scuba diving stops along the way to the island. At first it was somehow scary, but thanks to the instructor (well done, professional), everything went like clockwork. The underwater world of the Red Sea is something! Beauties! Next up was the island itself. Snow-white sand, warm, gentle sea, swam with masks near the shore.

I don’t know how anyone, but on our arrival, there was a lot of garbage in the water and on the beach. Which really ruined the experience. There were really a lot of fish and other sea creatures. True, you will no longer see fish, but body parts of tourists who are floundering in the water with you. There are a lot of them here, lovers of such underwater beauty.

This is truly a paradise, especially for snorkellers. For those who have never tried it, I highly recommend it. It fascinates and addictive - then you will come again and again to this place. The sand is the most delicate, very, very fine and warm, pleasant water. I don't want to leave here.

This is, firstly, a beautiful place with clean sand and water "like in the pictures", and secondly, a unique place for diving enthusiasts (and those who have not tried it - just take a mask and snorkel with you - and you will be amazed at the amount of fish and the beauty of the reefs ), thirdly, a very expensive place. Can of non-alcoholic beer (0.33) - 5$
