FAQ: Red Sea
How do I get to the Red Sea resorts?
We fly Scat Airlines from Almaty to Jeddah, then take a domestic flight to Red Sea International Airport or a transfer. Depending on the hotel, you reach the resort by boat, car or seaplane.
Do I need to swim to go snorkelling?
You should be comfortable in the water. The organisers provide masks, fins and life jackets and give a briefing before going out.
Is the Red Sea good for a family holiday?
Yes. The resorts have pools, calm beaches and shallow lagoons, and we choose activities to suit the children’s ages.
