Golden Dolphin II, Egypt

Since 2006, the Golden Dolphin II liveaboard has been running year-round dive cruises to explore the Egypt liveaboard experience. This 36-meter-long yacht is purpose-built for divers and hosts up to 20 guests in 10 spacious cabins that boast en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning. On the lower deck, there are eight twin cabins, while on the upper deck, you will find two double cabins with king-size beds. All cabins have a mini-bar so guests can rest comfortably between dives.

Social spaces on board offer a lot of choices to relax. You will find two huge sundecks with both shaded and open lounging areas, featuring comfortable sunbeds. The outdoor lounge is yet another place where you can feel your senses relaxed, offering a view of the Red Sea. Inside the vessel, you will find a spacious salon, a dining room, and a bar created with an atmosphere of coziness and friendliness. Meals are served in the big dining room, local and international cuisine is elaborated from fresh ingredients.

The diving facilities on this Egypt liveaboard are well designed to answer the divers' needs: a large dive deck at the back of the yacht offers individual storage for diving equipment, and camera setup tables for underwater photographers. Certified divers have Nitrox free of charge, and there are two zodiacs to make drop-offs and pick-ups at dive sites efficiently. The routes will cover some of the most demanded diving destinations in the Red Sea: Brother Islands, Daedalus, Elphinstone, and St. Johns. There is the possibility for divers to explore healthy coral reefs, view large pelagic species such as sharks, and generally view the mass amount of marine life for which the Red Sea is known.

The attentive and very experienced crew, too, ensures a hassle-free diving holiday-from equipment to expert guidance on dive sites. Guests on board can make up to three dives daily to maybe experience the varied underwater landscapes that make the Red Sea among the world's best diving destinations
