What is the best time to visit Hankorab? While Hankorab can be visited year-round, the cooler months from October to April are often the most comfortable when the weather is more pleasant and comfortable for both land and water activities.
Will snorkeling equipment be provided during the Hankorab trip? Yes, for our Hankorab trip, we provide snorkeling equipment for our travelers.
Is swimming with the dolphins guaranteed in Marsa Alam? The dolphin excursion consists of a boat trip to the dolphin house. Gear for snorkeling in the red sea is provided for the chance to explore the underwater world. However, the opportunity to see and swim close to dolphins relies on weather conditions and is not guaranteed, as these are free-living creatures whose presence depends on several natural factors. It is crucial to respect these magnificent marine animals by maintaining a safe distance without disturbing them.
