Blue Pearl, Egypt

This Egyptian liveaboard promises an unforgettable diving holiday to some of Egypt's most famous underwater destinations. The 42-meter purpose-built vessel offers comfort and adventure, welcoming aboard up to 26 guests in 13 staterooms, each with a private en-suite bathroom and individually controlled air conditioning. Large picture windows or portholes depending on the location of the cabin allow guests to take in the spectacular waters of the Red Sea. Each room contributes something to comfort with the addition of a mirrored cabinet, fresh towels, hair dryer, and 27" flat-screen television with over 700 movies and shows to help relax after a day of diving.

Three Master staterooms featuring queen beds are available along with eight Deluxe staterooms featuring twin beds. These include a large salon, a sun deck with shaded lounging, and two hot tubs that invite one to linger. The comfortable settings allow the guests to interact among themselves and rest, while the underwater photographers find the provided photo and video center ideal for reviewing their shots or editing. Besides, the onboard library also stocks fish identification references and a selection of books for leisurely reading.

Dining is a highlight: buffet-style breakfast and lunch with Egyptian and locally inspired dishes, waiter-served evening dinners. Culinary fare includes fresh seafood, chicken, homemade desserts, among others. Complimentary snacks and drinks available all day, free wine and beer with meals.

Brothers, Daedalus, and St. John's dive sites are a showplace of amazing coral reefs, pelagic fishes, and encounters with sharks. Nitrox is available, and the well-appointed dive deck makes the gear setup and storage very easy to handle for an effortless dive experience
