Utopia Island

Egypt, Soma Bay
Popular tourist attraction. The highlight of the island is that several times a year it goes under water. Hence the name. Nothing grows on this small piece of land, but off the coast of the island there is a rich underwater world, including a gorgeous coral reef. You can get here only by boat or yacht, and it is impossible to moor to the island due to the shallow water, so tourists are “landed” at some distance from Utopia. The depth is small - about the chest, so you have to hold things in your hands above your head. Utopia Island is located about two kilometers from the Egyptian resort of Soma Bay. In addition to the natural features, the island attracts tourists with the supposedly healing properties of sand, lying on which you can feel a surge of strength.

We rested in Makadi Bay at the Sunwing Family 5 * hotel (review posted). It took us a long time to choose a tour. I just wanted to see new coral reefs for us. We chose a yacht excursion to the island of Utopia with two stops for snorkeling. Until quite recently, no one knew about the island of Utopia, it was not on any map. And all because he either appeared above the surface of the water, or hid under its smooth surface. This happens two or three times a year. The Red Sea covers the island of Utopia with its waves, as if wanting to hide it from people.
