South Moon, Egypt

The South Moon liveaboard stands out for its dedication to providing divers with an exceptional exploration of the Red Sea's most celebrated dive spots. Led by seasoned dive guides, the vessel is perfectly outfitted for both novice and experienced divers, offering custom routes that cover a wide array of underwater attractions, from historic wrecks to lush marine parks.

Boat Interior
Accommodating up to 18 guests in 9 well-appointed cabins, the South Moon ensures a cozy and intimate diving adventure. Each cabin offers en-suite facilities, air conditioning, and the privacy needed for a restful stay. The communal lounge, with its comfortable seating and entertainment options, is ideal for relaxation and camaraderie among divers. Additionally, the upper deck provides two sun-drenched areas for guests to unwind and take in the stunning Red Sea views—one equipped with a TV screen and the other with sun loungers.

Dive Deck
Designed with divers' needs in mind, the spacious dive deck includes all the essentials for pre-dive preparations and post-dive gear maintenance. With a nitrox membrane system and two air compressors on board, enhanced dive experiences are readily available for those certified. The deck's layout facilitates easy access to diving adventures in the breathtaking waters of the Red Sea.

Itineraries
Divers aboard the South Moon are treated to a diverse selection of itineraries that showcase the best of the Northern Red Sea. These include dives at the world-renowned Thistlegorm and Rosalie Moller wrecks, as well as the intriguing Abu Nuhas ship graveyard. Each site offers a unique glimpse into the aquatic life and historical treasures beneath the sea's surface, catering to a wide spectrum of diving preferences.

When to Go
Egypt is a year-round diving destination, with the most favorable conditions typically found in the spring and autumn months.
