This modern vessel, crafted specifically for diving, boasts a crew renowned for their attentiveness and friendliness. Its schedule is meticulously planned to balance numerous diving opportunities with ample leisure time on the sun deck. The itinerary includes visits to some of the Red Sea's most iconic dive sites, such as the Brothers Islands, Abu Nuhas, and the Strait of Tiran.
Boat Interior and Exterior
The liveaboard accommodates up to 22 passengers in 11 cabins: six twin cabins and one double-bedded Honeymoon Suite on the lower deck, plus two twin-share cabins and two Suite cabins on the upper deck. Each room features air conditioning and an ensuite shower. The design smartly segregates the common spaces on the main deck from the living areas, ensuring guests can rest comfortably in their cabins without disturbance. The lounge area is equipped with a bar, DVD/TV/video, and a music system. There are three expansive sun decks, offering both shaded areas and open spaces for sunbathing and relaxation.
Dive Deck
The dive deck is outfitted with an air compressor and a nitrox membrane, providing free Nitrox for certified EANx divers. Two 5.25 m zodiacs facilitate access to remote dive sites, enhancing the diving experience.
Safety
Safety onboard is paramount, with equipment including a VHF Radio, Satellite EPIRB, Radar, GPS, echo sounder, and compass to ensure a secure experience during the safari.
Itineraries
The itineraries encompass Egypt's renowned Marine Parks such as Brothers, Daedalus, and Elphinstone, in addition to northern dive sites like the Abu Nuhas Ship Cemetery and Ras Mohammed. These dives offer a mix of deep wall explorations adorned with vibrant corals and wreck dives, surrounded by a rich variety of open ocean fish, including predatory species like sharks, tuna, sailfish, and giant jacks.
When to Go
The optimal period for Northern itineraries spans from April to November, with May and June offering increased chances of encountering mantas and whale sharks, albeit with slightly reduced visibility due to plankton. The months from June to August are ideal for observing large fish and schools of pelagic fish. For diving at Central dive sites and Southern itineraries, late March to May and September to November are the best times, with deeper dives recommended from June to September for sightings of larger fish. This liveaboard provides an unparalleled opportunity to explore the underwater marvels of the Red Sea, catering to divers seeking both adventure and tranquility
