Dolphins in Sharm El Sheikh: Can You Swim with Them?

Quick answer: yes. In Sharm El Sheikh you can watch a dolphin show or swim with dolphins in a pool at Dolphina, the dolphin centre in Nabq. You can also see wild dolphins in the Red Sea on some boat trips, but that is never guaranteed.

Swim with dolphins at Dolphina

At Dolphina the dolphins live in a pool at the centre, not in the open sea. You choose one of two options:

• Dolphin show: you watch from the seats around the pool.
• Swim with dolphins: a trainer explains the rules, then you get in the pool with the dolphins.

We book your visit with transfer from your hotel. PyraSafari is a tour company, not Dolphina’s official website.

Can you see wild dolphins in Sharm El Sheikh?

Yes, sometimes. Wild dolphins live in the Red Sea and are seen now and then on boat trips, for example on a snorkeling boat trip to Ras Mohammed and White Island. Sightings depend on the day and nobody can promise them. If seeing dolphins is the main reason for your trip, Dolphina is the sure option.
