Booking a 3 Day Liveaboard Red Sea (3/4/5 Day Egypt Liveaboard Diving)

Are short liveaboard dive trips to the Red Sea of 3, 4 or 5 days possible?

Holiday time may be short for you, or you may be looking to combine a short 3 day liveaboard Red Sea trip with other activities on your holiday. Either way, are 3 day liveaboard Red Sea, 4 day liveaboard Red Sea or 5 day liveaboard Red Sea trips possible.

Short liveaboard dive trips to the Red Sea of 3 days are not possible. But 4 or 5 day trips are available to book at Liveaboard.com. You can book short 4 day Red Sea liveaboard trips and 5 day Red Sea liveaboard trips, if you are able to extend your liveaboard trip by one more day.

The best way to dive the Red Sea, and especially the best and more remote locations in the Red Sea, is by a scuba diving liveaboard. You can check the latest and best deals on Red Sea liveaboards using the following window:

Booking a 3 day liveaboard Red Sea

If you’re looking to book a 3 day liveaboard Red Sea trip, I’m afraid you’re out of luck. But if you are able to push your trip to either 4 days or 5 days, then this is possible.

I have reviewed four Red Sea liveaboard dive boats, which all have 4 day 3 night dive trips, but two also offer 5 day, 4 night dive trips too.

Review of Red Sea liveaboard Freedom III:

Great diving experience in the Red Sea! “Thistlegorm could be seen 100 times and you still wouldn’t get sick of it. It really is something special. Compliments to the chef who made such a variety of food for every meal. There was something for everyone. The briefings for the dives were detailed and even gave back stories to the wrecks and the reefs. The dive masters knew where to find different wildlife and took care of the group while giving those space that wanted it. The rooms were nice and the environment was social. The whole experience on this boat was a highlight.” Recommended for: the diving, the food, the briefings.

Review of King Snefro 5:

Great crew, guide and food! “Spotting a black tipped shark on the first dive. Following a guitar shark on the last dive. A brush of snorkeling with dolphins. Exploring Thistlegorm. Seeing a huge king barracuda. Ful and falafel for breakfast.” Recommended for: Our eagle eyed guide, Essam, spotted a shark on the first dive! The food was delicious- must have gained a kilo or two in 3 days. Crew was friendly and our tanks were usually filled (not replaced) to over 200 PSI.
