Trip now full- Red Sea - Live Aboard, Egypt

Trip now full- Red Sea - Live Aboard, Egypt

Fri 11th June 2010 - Fri 18th June 2010

As you know the I organised a trip for a small group in April 2009 for a week with Blue O2 on the motor yacht Horizon, diving sites in the Southern Red Sea.
Some of the encounters we had with sharks were amazing. Pictures can be seen on the gallery page. For those of you who have been to the Red Sea before and been put off by the conveyor belts of daytrip divers pouring off the boats, this trip was different. No day trip boats in sight, the dive sights are too far out for them to reach.


As this trip was so good I have already put together details for a similar, but improved trip for 2010. We spoke to the dive guide on the boat, who is Dr Elke Bojanowski a biologist who initiated the study of sharks in the Red Sea, to find out the best time to visit to see sharks, mantas and whale sharks. She advised us to organise a trip for early June and to use an even better boat in the fleet, Blue Melody. The itinerary is similar but with a greater emphasis on education on the sharks.

The link for Blue Melody ishttp://www.blueotwo.com/my_blue_melody.htm
The trip is from Friday 11th June 2010 – Friday 18th June 2010 at a cost of £999. This price can be reduced if we have 10 places we receive 1 free place, or 20 places we receive 2 free places. By putting these places back in to the price it can be reduced by £100 per person. There are places for 24 on the boat. I am a booking agent for Blue O2 and if we fill the boat I am entitled to a further 3% if I fill the boat, which can be further used to reduce the price. So fill the boat and the end price could be about £900 for a week all in, except for alcohol and suggested tips on a luxury motor yacht.
You have to be an PADI advanced diver, or equivalent with 50 logged dives.

Please email me to book a place. If you are not a PADI advanced diver or want any further training I can arrange this for you.


Fully Booked, reserve places no being taken
Price £999
