First launched in 1998, the purpose-built M/Y Cyclone was refurbished in 2007 in line with its award-winning sister vessel - the Whirlwind. The 32 metre liveaboard accommodates up to 20 guests in 10 deluxe twin en-suite cabins with air conditioning and plentiful storage space. From the re-styled restaurant serving up exquisite cuisine, to the top deck jacuzzi and thoughtfully designed lounges, divers looking to dive, eat, sleep and repeat are in for a treat. The Cyclone is focused towards recreational divers with her large dive deck and platform, top quality rental gear and accompanying zodiacs. And with her expert crew and experienced dive team, divers are bound to enjoy a world-class liveaboard service to the iconic dive sites of the northern Red Sea.

The well-equipped, modern and luxurious dive vessels operate recreational and tec diving liveaboard trips with a team of carefully-selected expert crew and dive instructors that offer a full range of courses. Departing from Sharm el Sheikh, Hurghada and Port Ghaleb, divers can choose from exciting itineraries across the northern and southern Red Sea that are based on required skill level. Divers can explore the iconic reefs and wrecks of the Red Sea, where diverse marine species of all sizes and colours thrive at world-famous sites such as the Brothers Islands, Elphinstone and the Thistlegorm wreck. Escorted trips and special weeks including photography, wreck, tec, freediving and mini safaris are also available, in addition to private charters.
