The Ghazala Explorer, completed in 2021, stands out with its modern design infused with a distinctive character of its own.

Boat Interior and Exterior
The liveaboard hosts 12 cabins, accommodating up to 24 guests, all furnished with individually controlled air conditioning and private bathrooms. Nine of these cabins are designed for twin occupancy, while two suite staterooms feature large double beds for added comfort. The spacious and airy lounge and dining areas provide the perfect setting for relaxation between dives, complemented by multiple sun decks for those who enjoy basking in the sun.

Dive Deck
The dive deck is generously sized to offer ample space for divers to gear up and store their equipment with ease. It includes a large camera table and charging stations for underwater photography enthusiasts, as well as personalized hangers for drying beach towels provided onboard. The liveaboard is equipped with two large high-pressure air compressors and a highly efficient Nitrox membrane system, ensuring minimal wait time between dives. For site transfers, there are two RIB tender boats, one powered by a 100 HP Yamaha engine and the other by a 40 HP Yamaha.

Safety
Safety is a priority aboard the Ghazala Explorer, equipped with all necessary safety gear, including life rafts, a first aid kit, an oxygen kit, life jackets, a firefighting system, smoke detectors, and fire alarms.

Itineraries
This liveaboard offers a variety of Egyptian itineraries, covering the most popular Red Sea dive sites. Highlights include the "golden triangle" of Brothers, Daedalus, and Elphinstone for wall and wreck diving amidst vibrant corals. Wreck enthusiasts will appreciate the northern Red Sea routes, where numerous ships met their end. Alternatively, divers can opt for a combined itinerary featuring the best of Brothers Islands and the North.

When to Go
Egypt offers excellent diving conditions year-round, with water temperatures reaching up to 30°C (86°F) in the summer and dropping to around 22°C (71.6°F) in February. The autumn and spring months are considered the peak season for diving. Sudanese waters are best dived from October to July, with December to July being the prime time for encountering hammerheads, making any time a great opportunity to book a diving adventure on the Ghazala Explorer for an unforgettable underwater experience

Fantastic crew + Excellent boat = Perfect experience
Absolutely perfect experience with Amr, Ahmed, Nemnem and team. They were extremely knowledgeable and great fun to engage with throughout the trip. The support staff were fantastic, and the kitchen staff not only delivered a wide array of snacks and dishes, but also offered additional dishes for vegetarians. And the boat itself is beautiful, comfortable and practical. I would not hesitate to recommend Ghazala Explorer and its excellent crew.
