The Red Sea is not just a paradise for snorkeling: it is also a wonderful place to cast a line. If you are looking for a relaxed activity with your family or friends, a fishing trip in Hurghada<\/strong> on a private boat is a great idea. Here is how a sea fishing trip works, what it costs in 2026, what is included and our tips to make the most of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can you go sea fishing in Hurghada?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Yes. Off the coast of Hurghada, the coral reefs are home to a wide variety of reef fish, and a boat trip lets you go line fishing in clear and often calm water. This is recreational fishing that anyone can enjoy: the captain takes you to his favourite spots, provides the gear and shows you what to do. As always with fishing, a catch is never guaranteed, but the pleasure of being out at sea certainly is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How much does a fishing trip in Hurghada cost?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our fishing trip takes place on a private speedboat<\/strong>, so the price is for the whole boat, not per person. The bigger your group, the lower the price per person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your options for a private boat trip<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Private speedboat fishing and snorkeling: the ideal choice<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The boat is all yours. For 4 hours, or 6 hours to reach spots further out, you switch between fishing and snorkeling at your own pace. Want to stay longer at a spot where the fish are biting? Just tell the captain. It is the best way to enjoy sea fishing in Hurghada<\/strong> without the constraints of a group tour. See the private speedboat fishing trip<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
