The Maldives of Egypt: one island, every way to get there.
Boat tours
Every way onto the Maldives of Egypt
Snorkel the reefs, dive with PADI instructors, sail out on a pirate boat, or go VIP for the sunset. Full inclusions and prices on every tour’s page.
Guests call Orange Bay the Maldives of Egypt for good reason: a shallow, wind-sheltered lagoon so clear it barely looks real, wrapped around a private sandbank on the Red Sea.
However you want to spend your day there, there’s a boat tour built for it: snorkel the reefs, dive with PADI instructors, sail out on an authentic pirate boat, or go VIP for the sunset. Every trip includes the crossing, time on the island, and an open buffet lunch.

The water was unreal and the Aqua Gym in the shallows was so much fun. We booked a cabana for the next day.

This is where Egypt’s Maldives actually sits: a private sandbank on Giftun Island, one boat ride from Hurghada Marina.
