Orange Bay

🍊🍊 Boat Trip on the Red Sea: Orange Bay 🍊🍊

The Orange Bay boat trip from Hurghada is a unique adventure for lovers of sea relaxation and active recreation. 🌊

Orange Island is located just a few miles from Hurghada. The location gets its name from the beautiful color of the water, which takes on an orange hue in the evening sunshine. 🌅

The excursion begins with a transfer that takes you to the harbor. Afterward, the staff will escort you to the yacht, and the guides will help you settle onto the boat, take photos, and give a briefing before departure. 🚢

On the way to the island, you can admire the beauty of the Red Sea and enjoy the fresh air. We will also make two stops at beautiful coral reefs for snorkeling or diving. Arriving at Orange Island, you will find yourself in a true paradise, whether you are looking for beach relaxation or marine adventures. 🏝️

The island is washed by crystal-clear water where you can swim and even try SUP (stand-up paddleboarding). You can explore various photo spots and take beautiful souvenir photos. On the golden sand beach of Orange Island, bean bags, wooden boardwalks, and small cottages await visitors. 🏖️

At Orange Bay, you can enjoy local cuisine, take a dip in the crystal-clear water, or simply relax on the beach while enjoying the wonderful view. After a roughly two-hour stay on the island, the guides will escort you back to the boat, which will take you back to Hurghada. The Orange Bay excursion is the perfect choice for a day dedicated to the beauty of the Red Sea, active programs, and beach relaxation. ✨
