Exceeded Expectations
We saw everything! We swam with a school of 22 hammerheads, we saw somersaulting mantas, we got a whale shark! The staff was excellent, the facilities more than comfortable, and the whole experience was fantastic. This was our first liveaboard and certainly not our last - and we would, without reservation, dive with Blue Planet again!

AWESOME boat, crew, and trip!
My last day diving the dolphins came out to play. I had such a great dive, and took so many pictures/videos, it was just truly an amazing experience. And like so many trips, the others on the boat make a huge difference - from other divers to DMs and crew, I had such a great time talking, eating, sharing stories/pictures and just a beer, that you can't ask for a better trip.

Any diver must try.
Pros: Very friendly, helpful, and cooperative crew; great underwater sites to visit, pretty good food, and good value for money at the end. Cons: It was very stuffy in the cabin, also with bad toilet smell; portholes have to be closed, airco cools but does not bring any fresh air from outside.

This dive trip was AMAZING!
Coral and fish life on Brothers Islands is Spectacular. White tip reef shark encounters were very close. One swim bye was a metre apart. Great Wreck on penetration on Numidia, thoroughly enjoyed. I have amazing footage just from my generic go pro action camera called Xtreme H8R which was less than half the price but colour depth and clarity on my 50inch with a HDMI cable is fantastic - I watch to relive the awesome trip.

Back to the beauty of the Red Sea
Nice boat, friendly and helpful crew. Deep South: coral in very good condition, schools of Hammerheads, water was 30C so no wetsuit needed Recommendation: if sailing from Port Ghalib try to fly ino MarsaAlam, Hurghada is a 3 hour drive away. The organised transfers were good - included water and a snack but as we arrived at 4am it was not so ideal.

Safari on M/Y BLUE 22-28 Feb 2018
The lighthouse at Daedalus, snorkelling with dolphins and diving through caves at Shaab Claude. It wasn't hammerhead season but that would have made it even better of course. We had calm seas and sunshine, if you give me an email address I can send you our GoPro movie. Kind regards, Peter & Saada

A nice and successful trip on a very nice boat with nice guests and many nice dives.
Habili St John's: A fantastic early morning and after breakfast dive. We swam into the blue at the reef and descended to 40m. We watched a group of black and white snappers who seemed to be feeding as they were swimming up and down with their mouths open. We also saw tuna, barracuda and giant trevally. :-)

Everything about this trip was amazing - from the cabins, to the diving, to the crew, and food. The crew went above and beyond to give us a special experience with a great barbeque night and new years party. Food was healthy, delicious, and changed every day. Dive guides were amazing and struck the perfect balance between guiding us and providing autonomy to manage our own dives. Highly recommend!

Great boat and service, but transfer logistics could be improved.
We were very unlucky with the weather, which was extraordinarily windy and meant the trip had to be diverted for safety reasons. It also meant that when combined with the 22 degree water temperature it was very cold. Apparently two weeks at the end of March/beginning of April are frequently very windy. So beware this period and make sure you bring lots of warm clothes and appropriate dive gear. I was jeaous of those who brought their dry suits. The marine life was also not as good as I normally experience in the Red Sea. Of course none of this was the problem of the boat, which was excellent and I would recommend it unreservedly.

Disappointing trip of a spoiled diver
The (only) 2 dives at Fury Shoals were beautiful, diving thru caves, stunning underwater rock formations. The last day diving, our own little group of 5 without the dive guide who was busy with last day's administration! had the opportunity to be dropped off with the zodiac near snorkelling people so we could and saw a group of dolphins. We just hung there at 10 meters and enjoyed their funny play under water. That was a amazing ending of a disappointing diving week.
