Being a pirate in the Red Sea is fun – it’s so packed with natural treasures that claiming your booty simply, involves the effortless task of jumping into the water. After being picked up at your hotel, your pirate ship captain will take you out to sea on his sailboat, with two snorkelling stops in the morning including kids' games and treasure-hunting games on the boat for the kids.
The fun begins the moment you step on the boat. All dark wood and sturdy sails, it's every bit the authentic pirate ship. Welcomed aboard by the crew, kids will be wowed with pirate-themed games and face painting, while grown-ups can enjoy a drink from the bar.
When you're not admiring the views, you've plenty of time to top up your tan or cool off in the sea at one of the swim stops. Little sailors can grab a treasure map and search for buried pirate loot as mum and dad catch a few more rays of sunshine before the journey home.
