Extremely comfortable, well organized, friendly and competent staff and dive guides

We had a fantastic week on Blue Fin, the organization of the whole trip was absolutely impeccable, from the pick up minivan in Hurghada, to all the details on the boat, good food, very well planned dives calendar, and the rooms were fantastic, very clean, with more than one change of sheets and towels, in sum it was a truly terrific liveaboard experience. I highly recommend it.

Return to Blue O Two

Asa returning customer of Blue O Two this was a nice trip to the outer reefs. Slightly too warm in the water for the big stuff, but had a school of hammerheads at 40+mtr on daedelus. Boat and crew one of my favourites, feel like a returning family member. Elkes project shark lectures very interesting as always. Very clean and comfortable cabins, lovely food, and much healthier than when it only catered to UK diver (!) Blue Fin one of my favourite boats and although the diving slightly botched due to the warm water, still had a couple of close Oceanic encounters on Brothers. Highly recommended, and already booked my next trip!

The best ever LiveAboard experience

This was my 7th LiveAboard and must say that this was the best till date. Everything was perfect and it was such a pleasure to be on Blue Fin. Never seen such hospitality and comfort on a LiveAboard. The food was so good and variety was too good. Samir from kitchen served food with a lot of care and affection. Dive guides were just too good. Must mention dive instructor Ramadan. He is so knowledgeable and a great guide. The dive itinerary was good and great dive sites. Dive briefings by Ahmed were so perfect. Will definitely come back and dive with blue fin. Thank you everyone at blue Fin to make my trip a memorable one.
