Day 1: On arrival day, a transfer is offered from the airport to the vessel, ready for check-in at 17:00. Once on board, you will be assigned your accommodation, receive a boat briefing, and select any rental equipment. The boat will spend the night in Port Ghalib.

Days 2-6: Explore three of the finest dive sites in the Red Sea - Brothers, Daedalus and Elphinstone. This safari offers challenging dives, big drop offs, beautiful coral walls and plenty of large fish. 

Big Brother is a 400-metre long island offering fabulous wreck diving and wall diving. The wreck of the Numidia lies on the northern tip between 10 and 80-metres. The north-west side of the island houses the wreck of the Aida. On every section of this reef the wall is covered with corals and life.

Little Brother boasts a very high concentration of life within a very small area. Fan coral forests, overhangs, hard and soft corals in a variety of astonishing colours… and of course there are plenty of fish! With regular sightings of hammerheads, thresher sharks, grey sharks and white tip reef sharks, at the right time of year.

Daedalus lies about 180-kilometres south of the Brother Islands, this huge reef is surrounded by a sheer wall and strong currents allowing for fantastic drift diving. The hard corals grow to huge sizes but make sure you also keep an eye on the blue.

Elphinstone is one of the Red Sea’s most beautiful reefs, with its north and south plateau’s covered in hard and soft corals and visiting pelagics.

Day 7: In the afternoon, the boat will enter the harbour. Your luggage will be brought from the storage to prepare all your personal things. 

Day 8: Check out after breakfast and before 10:00.
