The cabin deck features an emergency exit at the front of the vessel. Navigation systems include GPS, chart plotter, radar, echo sounder, EPIRB, and VHF radio, all meeting international standards. ISO certification and Chamber of Diving and Watersports membership ensure compliance with best-practice diving protocols.

Itineraries

Departing from Sharm El Sheikh (New Marina, El Wataneya), the Snefro Spirit Egypt liveaboard cruises to the Red Sea’s top dive destinations. Mini Safaris to Tiran, Ras Mohamed, or Dahab include dives at banana reef, finger reefs, sand banks, and historic wrecks, with reef sharks, turtles, eagle rays, and colorful marine life.

Longer itineraries, such as the Sinai Classic, Sinai Wreck & Reef, and Deep North Marine Park, feature abundant dive sites, offshore seamounts, mystical wrecks, and macro life, offering a full diving holiday experience.

When to Go

The Snefro Spirit liveaboard operates in the Red Sea, where diving conditions remain favourable throughout much of the year. Water temperatures typically range from 22–28°C, creating comfortable conditions for diving across most seasons.

Spring (March–May) and autumn (September–November) are widely regarded as the most favourable periods, offering calmer seas, strong visibility, and active marine life across the region’s coral reefs and wreck sites. Summer brings warmer waters and increased encounters with pelagic species, while winter often delivers quieter dive sites and crisp underwater visibility along Egypt’s Sinai coastline.
