Days 2-7:
Designed to showcase some of the highlights of the Northern Red Sea at a relaxed pace, whether diving or snorkeling, it’s ideal for both divers and non-divers. It’s also the best time of year for dolphin spotting and the world-class fish schooling event at Ras Mohamed.
We spend more time moored at each location and less time traveling from dive site to dive site; perfectly designed for the divers who like to take things easy, the photo enthusiasts looking for more dive time to capture that perfect photo opportunity, or for non-divers looking to soak up the scenery, both below and above the water. Our open deck policy at certain dive sites on these trips means you can simply relax and sunbathe or grab your snorkel or dive gear whenever you want to hit the water.
Enjoy the breath-taking scenery as we start from Hurghada and sail across to well-known areas such as Sha’ab El Erg, two of the world’s best dive sites, including Ras Mohamed National Park (Shark and Yolanda reefs), the wreck of the Thistlegorm, breath-taking schools of glassfish on the wreck of the Dunraven, and the colourful coral gardens on the islands of Tiran.
This itinerary allows up to 4 dives per day for qualified divers, while non-divers have the chance to experience an ‘introductory dive’. Our experienced guides will select the best spots to dive, snorkel, and swim in each location and to suit local conditions, marine life opportunities, and your skill.
