The Vessel...
With a contemporary and stylish feel, Blue Horizon takes Red Sea liveaboard diving to a whole new level and is truly deserving of her wins as ‘Best Liveaboard’ in the Sport Diver awards, as well as ‘Liveaboard of the Year’ awarded by DIVER magazine.
With a large dining area, a totally separate sky lounge with a state-of-the-art entertainment system, a shaded deck area, and a sun deck, there is always space to relax and enjoy the beauty of the Red Sea.
King suite upgrades are available and all cabins benefit from air conditioning, en-suite facilities, mini refrigerators, and in-cabin entertainment.
Blue Horizon is equipped with a nitrox membrane and can also cater for rebreather and technical divers, upon request and subject to availability.
The Strait of Tiran and North cruise allows you to take in some of the most iconic wrecks and reefs the northern Red Sea has to offer as well as the pristine coral reefs of Tiran.
The Tiran dive area is found in the entrance to the Gulf of Aqaba and is made up of four main reefs that form the top of an underwater bridge. These reefs, named after British cartographers (Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas, Gordon), are world famous for their extraordinary diversity of corals and strong south westerly currents make them home to many large pelagic fish.
Day 1
Start the week with a check dive before heading north for an afternoon and night dive.
Days 2-5
Spend four days cruising the northern Red Sea. Normally you will have the opportunity to make three day dives and a night dive each day. The exact itinerary and order of dive sites will vary depending on the conditions but you can expect to visit plenty of wrecks including SS. Thistlegorm. There is also some fantastic reef diving including the Ras Mohamed and Tiran marine parks, Sha'ab El Erg (famous for dolphin encounters) and the island of Gubal.
Day 6
Enjoy two relaxed morning dives close to Hurghada allowing you to cruise into harbour in the early afternoon. Take advantage of an evening onshore to purchase souvenirs and enjoy Egypt's famous hospitality before your journey home the next day.
