The Undersea Journey
Stay dry while exploring the depths of the Red Sea. Large windows provide a clear view of the coral and fish. You might see wrecks or deep-sea coral formations not visible from the surface.
Respect the Vibe
"The submarine follows a fixed path: This ensures no damage to the surrounding reef."
"No littering over the side: Even from the transfer boat, keep all trash secure."
"Respect the underwater world: Even though you are separated by glass, remember you are a guest in their home."
"Observation only: Do not encourage the crew to feed fish to attract them to the windows."
Book Smart Tip
This is the only real submarine in Africa and the Middle East. Don't confuse it with "semi-submarines" which are just boats with windows.
