Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“Incredible experience, best week of diving. I'll preface this by saying that this is my first liveaboard and that i have nothing to compare it to. However more seasoned divers on board said that it was the best liveaboard they'd been on and i can see why. The big thing when i booked was safety. With the recent record of red sea liveaboard fires and sinkings i was cautious of booking a small operator, but i needn't have worried. The safety briefing at the start of the trip was thorough, there were fire extinguishers everywhere you looked, inc 2 in each cabin, ample life rafts and every dive was started with its own safety briefing. The boat itself was modern and well maintained. They even gave every diver an "Enos" locator beacon which would ping the boat with your location if you were lost at sea. Ive seen mixed reviews of the food but nobody on board had a bad thing to day. The food was good quality and there was a good selection, they fed us 4 times a day and most importantly nobody got sick. The crew were incredible. The deck hands would not accept you putting on your fins or wetsuit without help and went above and beyond every day. They did not stop cleaning the whole trip and everything was kept in top condition. Special mention to Ali the dive guide who took the lead as our point of contact since he spoke the best English and ran all the briefings. He was quick to help when i had a minor issue with a buddy and made us all laugh several times a day. A credit to the company. I don't need to go on about the diving itself as i think its pretty well known how world class the red sea is but the north itinerary was the perfect mix of wrecks and reefs and we were even lucky enough to see sharks at Brothers. Anyone on the fence about booking should book immediately, it was well worth every penny. I for one will be booking again for next year and am already counting down the days!”
Recommended for: Crew could not do enough for you. Friendly, helpful guides. Constantly being fed, good quality food.
