The Blue Storm liveaboard creates direct interaction with the famous dive sites of the Red Sea but at the same time offers modern facilities and comfortable, thoughtfully designed surroundings onboard. This is a new 40-meter vessel, begun operating in 2021, for up to 24 guests across 11 double/twin cabins, two of which can accommodate a third bed upon request, hence group-friendly. Each cabin has an en-suite bathroom, individually controlled air conditioning, and simple comforts that ensure privacy throughout your stay and allow you to withdraw after days of underwater adventures.

Social areas on this liveaboard from Egypt are designed to cater both to relaxation and community. A spacious indoor dining area serves a host of full-board meals in comfort, with views of surrounding waters. The dedicated top deck features both shaded and open areas with comfortable bean bags where divers can rest between dives, bask in the sun, or just take in the seascape framing every journey.

This dive deck in the rear of the yacht is quite well organized, having good storage and easy access to two tenders for smooth and efficient transitions between the yacht and dive sites. Typical itineraries run a week and allow guests to see the best of Egypt's underwater scenery: Brothers, Daedalus, Elphinstone, and St. John's are all well-known locations. They show very lively reefs, a host of marine life, and wrecks of historical importance that have been a source of inspiration for many divers across the world. Shallow reefs with coral gardens abound, to deep walls swarming with life, each site offers something different underwater.

Besides the experience onboard, meals will be full-board, international and local dishes in buffet style, catering to dietary preferences. Non-alcoholic beverages will be available all day long, while for those who want an added indulgence after a day of diving, local beers and wines can be purchased onboard.

The salient crew of this Egypt liveaboard is thoroughly experienced and attentive, working toward accommodating a seamless dive holiday. It assists on each dive site of the itinerary for a journey of enrichment through Egypt's celebrated underwater landscapes

Most comfortable boat in Egypt
Blue Storm is the newest boat in the Blue Planet fleet and it is by far the best boat I have been on in Egypt! Wow, what a spacious and comfortable boat!! Cabins are similar to hotel rooms, so big and comfortable. Karim was our dive guide on this week and he is an amazing dive leader and dive guide: so chill underwater, so respectful of the marine life, always looking around to find the animals while keeping an eye on each of us. Diving with him is very safe and fun at the same time. Briefings are very good. Food was average in my opinion. I was expecting more oriental and spicy meals, but I can understand that as most guest coming from Germany, they may prefer more bland and European style food as it is served onboard. The crew do a great job. Can't wait to come back onboard! We did the South itinerary from Port Ghalib and we saw several hammerheads, a manta, huge napoleon in Daedalus in July.
