Day 2:
Check dive at Temple. The next dive is Jackfish Alley, where you can easily enter the small caves there. The third dive will be at the Alternatives, seven pinnacles with numerous sand patches and resident leopard sharks. If you like night diving, then Alternatives will be a great location to jump in.

Day 3:
The boat sails to the wreck of the Thistlegorm and spends a minimum of two dives there. The first will be an outside orientation, and the second will give you the chance to look inside. The third dive of the day will be at Small Passage. A night dive inside the lagoon is possible here.

Day 4:
The first dive of the day is the historical wreck of the Dunraven, which sank in 1876. The next dive site is inside Ras Mohammed National Park at the famous Shark & Yolanda Reef. Then travel north to the Gulf of Aqaba and the Strait of Tiran to do a third dive at Gordon Reef. Normally the boat will spend the night at the South Lagoon, where a night dive is possible.

Day 5:
You start your first dive on Jackson Reef, the most northern dive site in the Strait of Tiran. After breakfast, we visit either Thomas or Woodhouse Reef. The third dive of the day will be decided onboard on the way back to Sharm at either Ras Nasrani, Ras Ghamila, or Ras Um Sid. Return to the New Marina (El Wataneya) port and disembark till 16:00 H (4 PM) at the latest.

Day 1:
In the evening, starting from 18:00 H (6 PM) onwards, transfer to the New Marina (El Wataneya) port and embark. Welcome on board, cabin arrangement, and boat briefing. Permission work with port authority, sailing very early next morning.

Day 2:
Early morning check dive at Temple or Ras Katy. Next dive is Jackfish Alley, where you can easily enter the small caves there. The third dive will be the Alternatives, a chain of seven pinnacles with numerous sand patches and resident leopard sharks. Night diving is very popular here.

Day 3:
Very early morning the boat will sail to the wreck of the Thistlegorm, the most famous of the Red Sea wrecks, maybe even worldwide. There is so much to explore, so the plan is a minimum of two dives. The first one is an orientation of the outside, and the second dive is a penetrating one. For the third dive, your boat will sail to Small Passage, where two channels cut the reef system of Shaab Mahmoud and connect the sheltered lagoon to the open sea. A night dive inside the lagoon is optional.

Day 4:
The first dive of the day will take you to the historical wreck of the Dunraven, which sank in April 1876—an old wooden wreck with plenty of room for passing through thousands of glassfish that live here in the shade of the wreck. The next dive is Shark and Yolanda Reef, the southernmost tip of the Sinai Peninsula with an endless wall unique in the Red Sea. Sailing back towards Sharm for your third dive at Ras Zatar, Ras Ghazlani, or may be in Ras Um Sid. Return to the New Marina (El Wataneya) port and disembark till 16:00 H (4 PM) at the latest.

Log dives on Shark and Yolanda reefs in Ras Mohammed National Park

The longer crossings of this itinerary will mostly be done at night
Day 1:
Transfer to New Marina (El Wataneya) port and embark from 18:00 onwards. Welcome on board, cabin arrangement and boat briefing. Permission work with the port authority, sailing very early the next morning.

Days 2-6:
The boat will sail to nearby Temple or Ras Katy for a check dive. The week-long safari will cover the area from the Strait of Tiran, Ras Mohamed National Park and the Gulf of Suez which is usually visited first.

The National Park begins at the small bay of Marsa Ghazlani followed by the larger and deeper bay of Marsa Bareika. Continuing along the coast to Ras Za’atar, Jackfish Alley, Eel Garden and Shark Observatory, to the southern end of the peninsula with Anemone City, Shark Reef and Yolanda Reef and ending at the Quay. Because of the geographic position this is a privileged area distinguished by strong massive currents that transport large quantities of plankton and other food that give rise to an extraordinary growth of stony and soft corals and attract large schools of both reef and pelagic marine fauna, over a thousand species in all. Schooling barracuda, jackfish, tuna and many kinds of sharks swim in these deep blue waters, especially in summer from June to August, sometimes early September.
The safari will also take you to famous sites like the wrecks of Dunraven and Thistlegorm, Shag Rock and the wreck of Kingston, sail to Shaab Ali where pods of dolphins are common, explore several spots at Sha’ab Mahmouds reef system such as the Small Passage.

Don’t miss the four famous reefs in the Strait of Tiran: Jackson, Thomas, Woodhouse and Gordon Reef, probably the most interesting and richest in marine life. You can choose from several dive sites with superb wall and drift diving. In the afternoon of the 7th day the boat will return to the Sharm area.

Day 7:
After a day of diving, we will return to New Marina (El Wataneya) port, the last night will be spent at or close to port on board the liveaboard. Depending on the itinerary and/or administrative conditions, on week long safaris the last night might be arranged in a hotel. This is usually communicated in advance.

Day 8:
Disembark by 12.00 latest and transfer to the airport or hotel.

Sample itineraries are for guidance only. Actual itineraries may differ slightly due to factors such as weather, wildlife, logistics and local regulations.
