Yes are allowed

Hi John I, yes we have unlimited unguided snorkeling on our extensive house reef directly from the beach. The reef forms a natural bay which protects you from the local north-south current which is anyway usually fairly gentle. Strong currents are not common at all and if the conditions are not considered safe then the team will advise you. You can also snorkel on the outer reef by using the zodiac service if you wish. Marine life is very diverse and the top of the reef is close to the surface, we also have some resident turtles as well as eels, rays, and all the usual Red Sea marine life and coral reef fish. We are sometimes lucky enough to be visited by dolphins as well. We offer excursions to other reefs and bays which you can sign up to in the diving center (as long as minimum numbers are met and weather conditions are fine). Sites such as Dolphin House and Abu Dabab are very popular for snorkeling.

Dear Melanie V, If you access the booking form on our website (click 'Book Now') you can either fill in the form which will submit a request to our reservations team for direct booking, or you will see a list of partner travel agencies in your country (once you have selected your country of departure). Unfortunately we aren't allowed to post links here in our replies. I hope that helps and we look forward to welcoming you.
