What, in Mars, they have not decided. In Taba in this direction is worse. People go there mainly for excursions to Israel and Jordan because of the proximity of the border.

About Mars, I received a bunch of PMs:
1. that you will snorkel there only until 10.30-11.00 at best and not every day, but I can’t dive.
2. You can come and not swim at all because of the winds, many came and swam 2-3 days out of 10 days
3. That they go to Mars for turtles, they also need grass, but here it’s either grass or corals.
4. Personally, for myself, in all the videos from Mars, I did not see even part of the beauty of Sharma corals near Ras Muhammad, where our hotel is.
But the main thing is that snorkeling is not for Mars, in Sharm I climbed at 6 in the morning and climbed out at sunset and the water was clear all the time in August and November.
I was just looking for a way to try something other than Charm.

Taba is very weak in terms of corals and living creatures. True, I was there only in one hotel. But she swam along others. And traveled for Israel

Consider Dahab better. They speak well of him. I was not

Is it possible to somehow see your videos from Sharm?
аватар Andrey111
It is very windy in Dahab. This is a place for windsurfers and divers.
For a snork, not so much.

I have never shot a video, I just get a little carried away with photography (if anyone is in the know and appreciates the degree of my fanaticism, then my favorite lens is a 70-year-old Zeiss converted to Nikon) and look at the picture quality that the gopro gives out, somehow, but with its own DSLR in boxing was uncomfortable and dumb, but overcame myself, studied tons of material on how to shoot with action cameras and went snorkeling and filming. And in Mars, everyone wrote the water is very muddy and only until 11.00, and then what to do in Egypt in the desert? Well, all the videos show that there are no corals after Ras Muhammad. In Mars only drivers probably

Of course, I was in Dahab, but somehow I thought there was only a wild vacation without hotels, I’ll study it, but I never heard about any normal hotels in Dahab

By the way, there are beautiful corals in Taba, but we dived from a yacht and I don’t know how it is at the hotels, so I asked

Snork lovers go to Happy Life Village.
True, this year they returned upset - banned at the hotel
night snork. And everyone went there for the night snork. Well, for the sake of the atmosphere of Dahab
аватар Andrey111
Ours is the most popular hotel in Dahab, reviews are only about it. True, given the increased requirements of the vehicle for reefs, he is unlikely to like it.

Thanks to everyone who replied

kvit74, I apologize for being off topic, tell me, but what kind of hotel do you write about "... near Ras Muhammad, where is our hotel"?
We have already climbed the bay of Ras Nasrani (we love snorkeling). I want something new. They also thought that other areas: Taba, Marsa, but read the correspondence above and the opinion has changed) Thank you in advance for your answer

Taba is an amazing place and a must visit. A real highlight of Taba Heights. 5 hotels in a huge closed beautiful area, fenced by mountains. Opposite the Gulf of Aqaba, the shores of Jordan and Israel are visible. The corals there are very good. The best living creatures are at Hyatt and towards the cliff. In the neighboring Sofitel with corals, everything is also good. You can walk-snorkel in all hotels

Thank you, I was in Taba, I dived from a yacht, but what kind of house reefs are there near hotels?
аватар klichko

We were in Hyatt in Taba many years ago. The reef is very beautiful, there were a lot of living creatures. The space for snorkeling is large. But the service at the hotel was boorish, spoiled the impression of the hotel.

Check out the Malika Resoft Abu Dabbab in Mars. They have a beach in the bay and it is not closed even during a storm. In the center of this bay, sand and thin grass grows - turtles live there, and on the sides, along the coast - corals. I don’t know which hotel itself, we were taken there from another hotel. But the bay is great. An unforgettable experience to swim next to the turtles.

Even in the monastery of St. Catherine and of course - Cairo (pyramids). From there - closer than from Sharm and Hurghada.
Previously, there was the InterContinental Hotel - now it has changed its name. It was possible to go to a very cool reef to the last hotel. But ... the main problem was that in Taba the airport is more of a military one, therefore slow Egyptians (customs and border guards) can gather to serve the flight for a VERY long time and be prepared that you will be marinated at the airport for up to 6 hours or more. Therefore, fly to Sharm, and from there the transfer - despite the distance will be clearly faster - there was an experience)))
Israel - 30 minutes by taxi. Jordan - ferry. In Taba outside the hotel - GOLYAK! There is nowhere to go - be prepared for this.

Wait a second, is that opened direct flights to Taba?? Why no one reported) Who carries?
And by the way, the port in Taba is wonderful. Small, handy and easy to maintain. I don't know what's in there. We have always passed through

There have always been many complaints about the Hyatt. And why settle there, you can snorkel everywhere. It was cool in Sofitel, but Marriott was the most soulful of all. I know that they renamed everything, but it pulls terribly. I don't consider transfers at all. Once again, what THAT carries in the Taboo?
аватар aldoc2008
Apparently, I didn’t put it right - there used to be flights to Taba - I haven’t seen it in the last 2 years!))
And at the expense of "a bullet passed" - 6 hours in the terminal, because. the main purpose is a military airfield (and therefore small)! About this year I can clarify - whether someone carries and if so, who.

Well, what nonsense, if small, then military. Taba has long been civilian, although it was created on the basis of the military. A lot of ports have been converted, and there are historically small civilian ones. Take an interest in the difference between military airfields and civilian ones. Taba has one short lane for medium ships. There is a terminal, parking places, but there are no military depots. Size doesn't matter)
