Ongeveer 2 uur vaar je op de Jules Verne Explorer langs de riffen van de baai en zie je het zeeleven door de grote ramen van de onderwaterhal. Schaduwplekken, een zonnedek en een snackbar aan boord maken er een ontspannen uitje van voor alle leeftijden. Voor snorkelplekken en het Coral Beach-reservaat lees je onze <a href=\"https:\/\/booking-tours.com\/nl\/rode-zee-eilat\/\">gids over Eilat aan de Rode Zee<\/a>.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading btr-kw-h2\">Glasbodemboot Eilat: zo werkt de tocht<\/h2><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">De boot vertrekt om 11.30 uur vanuit de omgeving van de jachthaven van Eilat. Je vaart langs de kust naar het koraalgebied dat bekendstaat als de Japanse Tuinen en keert dan om. Onder dek heb je ruim de tijd om vissen en koraal te bekijken door de ramen in de romp. Tussendoor kun je ontspannen op het bovenste zonnedek of iets halen bij de snackbar. Ongeveer 2 uur na vertrek ben je terug bij de jachthaven.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">De tocht is geschikt voor gezinnen met kinderen, niet-zwemmers en iedereen die de onderwaterwereld wil zien zonder te duiken of te snorkelen. Opa's, oma's en jonge kinderen genieten van hetzelfde uitzicht, zonder dat je uitrusting hoeft te huren of iets hoeft te leren. In 2 uur zie je flink wat rif en houd je de rest van de dag vrij. Zo past een glasbodemboottocht in Eilat makkelijk in elke vakantie aan de Rode Zee.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">De boot vaart op vaste dagen, dus bekijk de kalender voor beschikbare data. Je komt zelf naar de jachthaven, want ophalen bij je hotel is niet inbegrepen. Volwassenen, kinderen en baby's hebben elk hun eigen tarief. Het boekingsformulier toont de exacte prijs voor jouw aantal reizigers. Je kunt tot 36 uur voor de starttijd gratis annuleren. Meer van de Rode Zee zien?
