After a 9-hour trip, we finally arrived in Marsa Alam, and let me tell you, the excitement was off the charts! Even though we spent most of the journey sleeping, the minute we got to our resort, we dropped our bags and headed straight for the sea. The water was so incredible that it was all we did that day, just swimming, chatting, and soaking up the vibes. Everyone in the group was super hyped, and their energy was contagious.

The next day, we hit up another beach, and I honestly think it might be the most beautiful one I’ve ever seen—and I’ve seen a lot! We spotted so many different marine creatures, it felt like a dream. We stayed there so long that we got sunburnt, but it didn’t stop us from heading to yet another beach afterward. That night, we chilled with fun chats and games, staying up till morning because, let’s be real, who has time to sleep on these trips?

At sunrise, we jumped back into the sea, and for our last day, we took a yacht out into the middle of the ocean. We were lucky enough to see dolphins—they were absolutely adorable! Then we went snorkeling, made some fishy friends, and even hung out with seals. On the way back, we spent the whole ride singing (badly, but hilariously) and laughing until we cried. A fun fact: we had a third-time traveler with us on this trip, which made it even more special!
