Maybe a more involved trip would have been better? Overall though it is stunning and worth a boat trip if you have other stuff included in it. i do believe that there is a option to pay more and spend the day there with facilities included, however our boat trip consisted of approx 1 hour on the island, which was enough really as all we did was sit on the sand and have a paddle.

We had to walk for a good ten minutes along the beach to find a space to put our towels down (no beds or chairs etc).also no toilets or bar, restaurants etc, but this is obviously why its called Paradise island as it is mainly untouched. The sand is beautiful and white, and the sea torquise really is beautiful.but extremely busy. Once anchored you have to wait for a speed boat to collect you and take you over to the island, which didnt take too long. When you approach Paradise island it is clear to see that it is very popular, there are boats queuing up to find a space to anchor. The boat trip itself was amazing with pit stops to snorkel etc.

We went to Paradise island from a boat trip from Hurghada. There are far nicer places in the red sea, that don't attract the vain pouting idiots I saw running around this place.ĭon't go.unless you are one of 'them', then do go and please stay there! I ventured out to the rest room, only to have my initial opinion of the island amplified! We simply bunkered down under the umbrella and waited it out until we were due to leave, whilst pointing and laughing at this ape like behaviour.

People even rocked up with evening wear to capture that all important vanity shot!! There were dozens upon dozens of people just barging past you to get to the spot for the 'ideal pic for the gram' or holding up queues whilst they pout and pose (no doubt later on adding dozens of fake filters) to their hearts content. What a mistake.įrom swimming in tropical waters, with fish busy swimming around us peacefully to landing on an overcrowded, barren plain island, full of (mostly) the current worst of society's self obsessive & narcissistic people! We finished a days snorkelling with a visit to Paradise Island.
