Everything was just perfect! I would appreciate if staff members inform people about two things. Put your sun's cream at least one hour before swimming and dont touch the corals. Its not good for marine life and guys its paradise out there. A lots of people doesnt know about this.

I got the opportunity to visit and snorkel offshore on this beautiful island while staying in Hurgada. We got a private transfer from our hotel In Hurgada to the beach club where we picked up a beautiful boat which took us to the island. It was a stunning boat trip each way lasting 55 minutes. The boat was not packed and there was plenty of room to sun bathe or just chill and relax in the shade. On arrival at the island , we transferred from the large boat to a smaller motor boat to bring us onshore. We picked up our snorkelling equipment, were given shaded sun beds and then took to the shallow waters to explore the snorkelling opportunities close to shore. After this we transferred back to larger boat for about 15 mins and were brought to much deeper water to snorkel among the coral and stunning marine life. This was very deep but there was excellent supervision and guidance from the professionals. A spotter speed boat accompanied us and was available to provide immediate assistance to anyone who got into trouble or just got tired. We spent about 45 mins in these deep waters before returning to the island for a very welcome lunch. There was a further opportunity to snorkel on the shallow waters, swim , sunbathe or walk on the beach before we departed for the leisurely boat trip back to mainland and a private transfer back to Hurgada. An amazing day!!!

There are few places in Egypt that grew organically to be one of top destinations around the world, Mahmeya on the Giftoun Island is one of those! From its beaches to the atmosphere with its seatings and restaurant to the service itself. Any visitors should in the Red Sea should go to Mahmeya and any locals shouldn’t miss this experience.

Mahmya is AMAZING: peaceful and authentic spot. Meal was delicious. You can keep the snorkling equipment until the very end of the trip to enjoy it while you are on the beach. I would definitely go back if the price was lower. Don’t doubt it and GO to Mahmya with Sherif Tours !!!! Too experience in every aspect!!!

The trip was in a very nice boat where you could choose to sit on the sun or not. All the staff was incredibly helpful and nice. The snorkling was around corals full of colours and with different shapes. You could see lot of amazing fishes. On the boat, we even saw dolphins! Mahmya is AMAZING: peaceful and authentic spot.

What an island! We visited here as part of a boat trip from Hurghada. Lovely soft sand, lots of shaded umbrellas for us to lay under. The bar didn’t serve alcohol but the soft drinks were welcome in the heat! The food was buffet style and very nice. View incredible. The water had a sectioned off area for swimming with small areas of coral but minimal fish. There was also a little inflatable slide.

An amazing day out, the pictures do not do this place justice!! It really is a must visit! Down to the food it was delicious! It literally is a slice of heaven on this earth! A memory we shall never forget and will always treasure.

a great experience even for someone over 60 like me ;-). Very professional and carried out correctly. I found the crossing with the speedboat to be something really "special". It's amazing, you just HAVE to experience it and for a more than affordable price. Thank you for a lovely morning. Greetings to the organizer Sherif Tours company and the "Captain"

Amazing experience. One of the most charming spots in the whole world. Turquoise call water. Warm. Amazing staff. The food is delicious. Safe place. On the way you can also catch dolphins racing the boat. Lovely piece from heaven

It was not my first visit at Mahmya Island. But as always we spent a fantastic, relaxing day. Great service, food, drinks, great chill out music and massage. And all of that in a wonderful place among turquoise water and white sand. I can't wait for another visit.
