Recommended water activities and wildlife encounters in Hurghada

The water park is recommended for a day of slides, with the Dragon slide singled out as a favorite. It is quieter after lunch, but wet paths can be slippery, so use the rubberized walkways.

Turtles have been spotted from Zahabia after swimming a short distance toward Sunny Days. Sightings reportedly recurred around midday over several days, both underwater and when the turtle surfaced to breathe.

Bring a snorkel mask on sea excursions to improve your chances of spotting turtles underwater; they may also surface close enough to watch from the water.
