Cabins:

The boat features a total of 14 comfortable, air-conditioned double cabins that can accommodate up to 28 divers. Each cabin is equipped with a private bathroom, individually controlled air conditioning, a TV, and a minibar. Three cabins are located on the lower deck, one of which is furnished with a double bed. There are eight more cabins on the main deck, including two with double beds. The accommodations are rounded out by three additional double cabins on the upper deck, one of which also features a double bed.

Dining:

The separate, air-conditioned dining area on the lower deck offers ample space for all guests. Three meals a day are served buffet-style. The kitchen treats guests to a varied selection of primarily European and Arabic specialties. A Nespresso coffee machine is also available for coffee lovers—please bring your own capsules.

Salon:

The spacious, air-conditioned salon invites you to relax and features a cozy TV corner with a television and sound system.

Sun Deck:

The sun deck and fly deck offer ideal spots to relax between dives and enjoy the view of the sea.

Diving:

The spacious dive deck and platform provide divers with ample room to prepare their gear and get ready for their dives in comfort.

Please note:

Please bring a valid medical clearance certificate. If you have no health issues, this can be confirmed by signing the medical self-declaration form to be filled out on board. You must be able to provide proof of at least 30 logged dives. For safaris visiting marine parks, Egyptian law requires proof of at least 50 logged dives. The most recent dive should not have taken place more than one year ago. Please bring a copy of your passport, proof of valid dive insurance, and a safety buoy.

The maximum diving depth prescribed by Egyptian law and CDWS regulations is 30 meters. Under certain conditions, however, extensions to 40 meters are permitted. This requires a Deep Dive certification. Night diving, as well as swimming and snorkeling, are prohibited in marine park areas.

As a general rule, all overnight stays are on the safari boat. In exceptional cases (depending on the boat’s occupancy schedule), the last night may be spent in a 4**** hotel on a half-board basis.

Group Offer:

For groups of eight or more people, we offer a 10% discount.

25% discount on the safari price for children and teenagers up to 12 years of age, as well as for non-divers.

When booking two consecutive safaris, we offer a discount of 50 euros per person per week on the safari price.

Note:

The operation of a liveaboard trip depends on the weather, sea conditions, local regulations, and the experience of the participating divers. For these reasons, we cannot guarantee access to specific reefs.
