Overview
Dive into the underwater world of the Red Sea without putting on a wetsuit at the Grand Aquarium in Hurghada. Known as one of the largest aquariums in Africa and the Middle East, this modern complex lets you walk through an impressive 24-metre glass tunnel in the middle of a giant tank. You will see nurse sharks, huge rays and sea turtles swimming above you. The complex also includes a recreated rainforest, a mini zoo with monkeys, crocodiles and exotic birds, and a paleontology gallery on the history of the region’s whales and dolphins.
A perfect half-day with children
The aquarium is one of the easiest outings in Hurghada for families. It is a good plan for a windy day when boats stay in port, or for a break between two beach days. Children love standing in the tunnel while sharks and rays glide over their heads, and toddlers aged 0 to 5 come for free.
Aquarium or boat trip?
If someone in your group does not swim, gets seasick or is too young for a boat day, the aquarium lets everyone see the animals of the Red Sea up close, with no time on the water. Families who want to see the reefs in the open sea without swimming can also look at our semi-submarine and glass bottom boat trips.
