In this excursion, this reef is also called the “Dolphin Reef” or “Dolphin House”,
which looks like a horseshoe, where entire families of these beautiful
mammals live. The unfenced reserve is home to many other inhabitants
of the Red Sea: turtles, cesiums, nudibranchs, parrot fish and a lot of no less interesting inhabitants. And also, there are underwater caves and tunnels.
You will swim with these amazing animals in the open sea, listen to how they “speak” and get a lot of positive emotions. The probability of seeing
dolphins is up to 90% (swimming with dolphins is absolutely safe, with you
the instructor).
