Where can you snorkel/dive to see dugongs and fish near Hurghada?

Based on 2 discussions with 3 participants · Last activity: 1 day ago

TL;DR

Dugongs are regularly spotted in a specific bay near Hurghada, and many divers book several nights there just to see it again. For first-timers, the reefs right off Hurghada already offer plenty of fish without traveling further.
