mahmya

Maymaya island was stunnig. An amazing excursion that myself and my partner did in february 2015. Akl the facilities were well designed and very clean. I loved the mahmaya cocktail.The sea was clear and inviting and the sand white and soft.Brilliant for relaxing and soaking up the sun rays.Fantastic island would defintley do this trip again.Stunning

We went on a great boat trip to Mahmya - the snorkelling from the beach was amazing. The island has a lovely restaurant and was clean and well cared for. Standard of toilets very good too.

We went on a day trip to the island with Thomson. We set off at 7.30am and returned at 5.30pm. Lovely day of relaxing on the beach with a delicious lunch meal included. We went on a little boat trip from the island which took us snorkling for around an hour . We saw some lovely fish. I would definetly reccommend this trip.

The sea is brilliant turquoise, warm, clean, with fish everywhere and beautiful coral formations. The sand is soft and white, the facilities basic but good. Well worth the boat trip and cost.Snorkelling gear is provided if you don't have your own. Highly recommended

Lovely sugar like sand beach we didn`t get a bed just a mat not very comfortable, lovely trip over to it on boat.

A great trip if u like to spend a day by the beach. Very clean the open beaufait is great , tasty and stuff are tremendously helpful and friendly. Worth visiting if u seak a snorkeling day. ..Paradise island is paradise on earth. ...

I must say that my wife is not a good sea traveller, so what would be a normal boat trip to others woukd still affect her, but we felt that we must go to 'Mahmaya island' which means protected, and to see the wonderful corals by snorkeling in the crystal clear waters of the Red Sea. We were taken on a 40 minute trip to the protected island in a lovely boat with VERY HELPFUL STAFF, given the option to go diving, snorkeling or just enjoy the calm beach to sunbathe.We snorkeled for the first time in our lives and found it to be AMAZIN, our diving Iinstuctor Was so helpful. After working up an appetite, we enjoyed a lovely BBQ on the beach area and headed back after a most memorable day.I'am so pleased that we did it, althiugh unlikely to go again due to my wife not being a good sea traveller.

This is a beautiful place to visit for the day! Came for a day if snorkeling and was pleased with the day! Took just under an hour to get to the island from the marina of hargarda by boat. Arrived near the island and was transported by a motor boat to the dock of the island. The island was spotlessly clean with sand like sugar and crystal clear water. The food they have there was nice at lunch and there was a bar serving all sorts of drinks and ice cream. Well worth it for the snorkelling and a day of soaking up the sun! Its not crazy busy and so peaceful. the equipment is given when you're there but you can take your own if you want.

Definitely a must do trip. Absolutely beautiful sea. the fish and coral is gorgeous. A real sunbathing paradise with good snorkeling.

beautiful boat, fantastic snorkelling, wonderful white sandy beaches, good food - had a wonderful day. Recommend you go on the boat to the reefs to do more snorkelling.

Beautiful calm place, fantastic snorkeling, magical beach, good service, great food.After few steps into the sea you can see amazing corals and lots of different kind of fishI love this place

everything was perfect. like a day in paradise.lovely white sands and clear blue sea. also saw two dolphins

During our visit to Hurghada last week we booked a trip to Mahmya to enjoy this lovely beach facility and the lovely snorkeling spots here. We booked it through our tour rep in our resort at a cost of €72 each (Crystal Bay). We were picked up at our resort around 08:00 and were brought to the marina where we embarked on one of the boats to be taken to the island. After a nice boat ride we were dropped of at the island to enjoy the beach and the sun (was a bit windy though). At about 11:30 we were picked up again to go snorkeling (abt 1,5 hr) and then were brought back to enjoy a lunch. After lunch there was still time to enjoy the beach for a couple of hours.

Day trip to do some snorkelling around the shallows and coral. It took around an hour by boat to reach the island with its soft golden sands set on a private part of the beach. After getting use to the snorkelling gear provided you have the opportunity to go on short boat trip to do some more snorkelling around the reefs and deeper water with a wide array of fish and coral to see, then back to the beach for buffet lunch which was very nice and the rest of the afternoon spent lounging and the beach. A day well spent.

A beautiful place where to spend a day ... Just like stay in heaven!!! The food was amazing and the staff very very friendly
