Guest Reviews:

"Thistlegorm could be seen 100 times and you still wouldn’t get sick of it. It really is something special. Compliments to the chef who made such a variety of food for every meal. There was something for everyone. The briefings for the dives were detailed and even gave back stories to the wrecks and the reefs. The dive masters knew where to find different wildlife and took care of the group while giving those space that wanted it. The rooms were nice and the environment was social. The whole experience on this boat was a highlight".

"The trip was simply amazing. The crew and captain Abdo are very friendly and helpful. The guides "Mustafa and Hani" knows the diving site very well. The food was fairly good always on time and variety is good enough. Rasmohammed Sharqs reef location is a must; we did 3 dives there and you simply can't get enough".

“This was my first Liveaboard trip, so it was amazing, yet a little tiring, to do 4 dives in one day (including a night dive). Seeing new species, such as the arabian angelfish, blue grouper, and napoleon fish was also nice.

As well, the gorgonias were larger than anything I had seen elsewhere. Also, the scenery above the water along the Red Sea was very interesting. I plan to come back for my diving in the future”.
