My advice is to rent a wetsuit if you're diving, even if the water seems warm. It helps with buoyancy and keeps you comfortable, trust me.

I think it’s super important to keep an eye on the currents. I got a bit too adventurous and ended up fighting against the waves. Better to be safe!

I recommend to get to Blue Hole around 8 AM, before things get too crowded and the sun gets blazing. It’s far more enjoyable when it’s a bit quieter!

You should totally bring your own snacks and water! The food options near Blue Hole are pretty limited and can be overpriced. I wish I had packed some extra energy bars.

I suggest getting there by 9 AM to beat the rush. The beach gets crowded quickly, and you'll want a good spot to set up your towels and gear.

Don't forget your water shoes! The entry into the water can be rocky, and I regretted not having mine. They protect your feet and make swimming easier.

If you're planning to snorkel, invest in your own gear. Rentals are available, but having your own mask and snorkel makes it way more comfortable and saves time standing in line.

Make sure to bring a towel and sunscreen; the sun can be intense, and I got a bit burned because I thought I could last hours without it!”]} It helps with the enjoyment of your time in the water and keeps you comfortable while exploring this beautiful spot. Overall, just enjoy your time; there's so much beauty to catch at Abu Dabbab!

I think you should bring some cash. Not all places accept cards, and you might want to get drinks or souvenirs without hassle. Plus, it’s good to tip the friendly staff.

My advice is to pack some snacks and water. The food options on the island are a bit pricey, and you might want to avoid those long lines during lunch time.

I suggest bringing your own snorkeling gear if you have it, rental prices can be a bit high and the quality isn't always great. Plus, you'll save time looking for a decent set!

I recommend getting there around 9 AM. It’s less crowded and you can snag the best spots on the beach for some sunbathing and swimming before everyone else arrives!

I recommend packing extra snacks and water. Some trails can feel longer than expected, and having that energy boost makes all the difference! I learned this the hard way when I ran out of water halfway up a steep climb

I suggest visiting in the early morning like around 7 AM. The weather is cooler and the views at sunrise are breathtaking. Trust me it’s worth getting up early for those colors!

My advice is to take your time and soak it all in. The scenery is incredible but can be overwhelming. I rushed at first and missed some of the hidden gems along the way. Slow down and enjoy the journey!

I suggest arriving right when the park opens at 10 AM to snag a good spot and avoid long lines. It gets busy fast, trust me!

I think the lazy river is a nice way to relax, but if you're looking for action, hit the big slides first to beat the lines. They get popular quick!
