itinerary may include a speed boat ride from Marsa Alam to areas where dugongs are commonly found, such as the Marsa Mubarak or Abu Dabbab bays. During the boat ride, participants will have the opportunity to enjoy the scenic views of the Red Sea coastline.
Once the dugong habitat is reached, participants will be given snorkeling equipment and a briefing on how to interact respectfully with the dugongs without disturbing them. Dugongs are gentle marine mammals, and it is crucial to keep a safe distance from them to avoid causing them stress.
Participants will then enter the water and snorkel around the area, hoping to spot the elusive dugongs grazing on seagrass beds. The dugongs' diet consists almost entirely of seagrass, which is why they are commonly found in areas with abundant seagrass beds.

After a few hours of snorkeling, participants will return to the boat for a well-deserved break, during which they can enjoy refreshments and snacks while sharing their experiences with each other. The boat will then head back to Marsa Alam, and participants will be dropped off at their hotel.
