Vessel

Vessel information

Built in January 2007, Gelen is an elegant 38-metre safari boat promising reliable cruising performance. Forget cramped cabins, uncomfortable dive decks and poor service, this liveaboard guarantees superb value-for-money thanks to its carefully-considered design and high standards of safety and professionalism. Having spent their lives working at sea, Gelen’s dedicated crew are all skilled sailors and are always ready to serve guests in any way possible to ensure optimum comfort and safety. Likewise the homely, mahogany trimmed cabins and social spaces invite socialising and relaxation, and lend an air of sophistication to every experience.

Catering to divers and non-divers alike, Gelen embarks on exciting seven-day safaris in the Egyptian Red Sea, focussing on a range of activities including scuba diving, snorkelling and kite surfing. Up to 20 guests are accommodated in eight lower deck cabins and two upper deck cabins, all of which have a private en-suite bathroom. Itineraries often focus on either the central or southern regions, with occasional trips further north. 

Onboard Gelen

Social areas aboard this vessel include a comfortable indoor salon on the main deck equipped with a flat screen TV and entertainment area and a well-stocked self-service bar. This deck is also home to the indoor dining area where a tempting selection of International and local cuisine is served buffet-style three times per day. Full board meals, tea, coffee, and water are included in the price. A comfortable open-air lounge area on the upper deck features soft seating, a music system, and a second bar area, making it a popular space for socialising. Or, if you prefer to be in the sun, the sun deck above is ideal for working on your tan.

Diving from Gelen

Gelen’s dive deck comes equipped with convenient fresh water showers and is spacious enough to provide each guest with their own individual preparation area and under-seat storage. Divers are supplied with 10-litre steel cylinders as standard, with 12-litre, 15-litre, and twin-set aluminium cylinders available upon request. Up to four dives are offered every day, including a night dive, and nitrox 36% is also available to certified guests. During your trip, Gelen’s experienced instructors can also deliver a range of PADI and CMAS scuba certification courses. When it comes to kite surfing, the qualified crew will help you develop your technique, while stand-up paddleboarding and wakeboarding are great alternatives when the wind is calm.
