Day 1:
On arrival day, a transfer is offered from the airport to the vessel, ready for check-in at 17:00. Once on board, you will be assigned your accommodation, receive a boat briefing, and select any rental equipment. The boat will spend the night in Port Ghalib.

Days 2-6: 
Daedalus and Fury Shoal Reef is a great combination for divers who love steep walls and big fish. 

In the Fury Shoals system, the Sha’ab Claudio captivates divers and enthralls photographers with its shallow swim-through system, perfect for leisurely exploration. With five entrances and exits and shallow depth, you’re never ‘lost’ and can just enjoy the shafts of light dancing through the caverns. Rays, nudibranchs, large Napoleon wrasse, and morays are all frequently spotted here; you may even see a whitetip reef shark or turtle pass by.

Sha’ab Sataya is situated at the very south of Fury Shoals; this huge natural lagoon is formed by a massive reef (sha’ab) rising from the depths. The fame of Sataya is its steep drop-offs along with pelagic sightings and protected pinnacles smothered in soft and hard corals. But the real stars can be the huge pods of spinner dolphins that frequent here, meaning Sataya has become the ‘Dolphin House’ of Hamata.

Elphinstone is one of the most beautiful reefs, with its north and south plateau’s covered in hard and soft corals and visiting pelagic

Daedalus lies about 180 kilometers south of the Brother Islands. This huge reef is surrounded by a sheer wall and strong currents, allowing for fantastic drift diving. Depending on prevailing weather conditions, your guides will pick sites suitable for night dives outside the marine park.

Day 7: 
In the afternoon, the boat will enter the harbour. Your luggage will be brought from the storage to prepare all your personal things. 

Day 8: 
Check out after breakfast and before 10:00.
