Vessel

Vessel information

Owned and operated by Ocean Breeze Liveaboards, Almonda is a sleek and stylish liveaboard offering adventurous exploration in Saudi Arabia’s crowd-free Red Sea. Built in 2017, this 40-metre motor yacht guarantees comfort, safety, and stability, thanks to its modern design and highly experienced crew. Up to 24 guests can be accommodated aboard this five-star vessel, thanks to 12 spacious staterooms, consisting of twin, double and master suites.

Almonda’s itineraries venture either north or south of Jeddah, visiting the Seven Sisters and Five Corals of Rabigh or the Farasan Banks. Trips typically last around seven-nights, though some shorter variations are also available.

Ocean Breeze Liveaboards strives to be the premier liveaboard operator in the Saudi Arabian Red Sea, delivering safe, high-quality service at all times during fun and unique underwater experiences. This fleet aims to promote this under-explored region as a new destination for unforgettable scuba diving, whilst highlighting the importance of continuous protection of its marine environment.

Onboard Almonda

On the main deck, guests will find a large restaurant furnished with two long banquet-style tables, powerful air-conditioning, and large windows. Fine buffet meals are served here three times a day with snacks and drinks available around the clock. Alcohol consumption is prohibited in Saudi Arabia and is therefore unavailable on board. The primary lounge occupies almost the entire upper deck and comes furnished with comfortable bench seating, beanbags, and an entertainment centre. An additional open-air lounge area can also be found at the rear of the upper deck, while the sundeck features comfortable deck chairs and a hot tub.

Diving from Almonda

When it comes to diving, Almonda comes equipped with 12-litre tanks, weight belts, and plenty of weights available. And, certified guests can choose to dive with nitrox 32% at no extra cost. The dive platform is very spacious and each diver has ample space for personal equipment storage and kitting-up. It is possible to dive directly from Almonda, thanks to the rear diving platform, while two zodiacs are available for accessing more distant dive sites. Complimentary use of ENOS rescue systems is also provided, ensuring extra peace of mind.
