Rested at this hotel two years ago. Fourth in Egypt. Mars Alam has another. They chose the hotel because their beach is the bay of Abu Dabab. And the hotel itself is good. Rooms, food, animation. I liked everything. Animation of very friendly Russian-speaking girls. Food is a good choice. It's hard for me to find food. I do not eat meat, eggs and milk. Fish them. But the choice was good, she did not go hungry. The man is a vegetarian. I also walked full.

Room Cozy, clean. Everything works. We swam a little in the pools. Mostly at sea. For the sake of the sea, I recommend all snorkeling fans to come here. From the rooms to the sea can be reached on foot, and on small open buses. They drive constantly. There are many sunbeds on the beach. There are always free. Sunset into the sea is gradual over the sand. What is important for families with children. But it takes a little. Then on both sides of the bay reefs. This is a fairy tale. I often saw octopuses, moray eels, two species of stingrays, many lionfish.

A herd of giant turtles grazes in the center of the bay every day. Do not be afraid of people. Take as many photos as you want. You can't touch it with your hands. For the most comfortable rest, I advise everyone to buy a house 3 mm long wetsuit, boots and flippers. With this equipment you will feel comfortable swimming for 3 hours in the water. And you will not get tired. And of course you should take a face mask. And you will want to brag to your friends, to show what you have seen with your gases. So think about underwater photography.

Now about the tours. While staying at this hotel it makes sense to take two excursions. Took on the beach.

The first on the dugong. It is cheap. From editing on a boat straight from the beach. Dugon grazes near the beach, but does not enter the bay. And it must be found. They will find him for you. The dugong grazes on the seabed and emerges in the air every 10 minutes. Here you will need flippers. The dugong swims deftly.
But in the flippers, I caught up with him and shot a lot of videos.
I was very pleased with the tour.

The second excursion is to look at dolphins. It lasts all day. First take the bus. Then on a yacht. Very good reviews from those who traveled. But we were unlucky. There was a wind, and the dolphins did not swim. There will be an opportunity, I will take this tour again. We are going to this hotel again on October 2. But already with the child. My son will be 1 year old on October 3. I will write a second review upon arrival.
