No wishes unfulfilled
The service on board was beyond any expectation. The crew does more than in any 5-star hotel! Whether service, room/cleanliness or helpfulness, dive deck, the Blue Crew is terrific! The food was really good and varied. A great trip to BDE. We will be back!

Great trip - would go again
We had a really great time onboard the MY Blue. Everyone was super friendly and attentive - even when we had one day of lower visibility, the captain and the rest of the crew went out of their way to find dive spots with better viz, which was highly appreciated by everyone. Diving in the Red Sea is always such a pleasure, with the most fantastic dive sites. The food was even better than you'd usually find on livaboards with quite varied menus for lunch and dinner, which is an undervalued thing when you're onboard for a week :) We'd be more than happy to go with MY Blue gain.

Best luxury dive safari money can biy
Red Sea is an amazing place to dive. We were on the boat for 2 weeks and did 2 separate tours. Several guests were on the yacht for a 2nd, 3rd or more times. Had some other Americans with us and they also said this boat is one of the best run they had ever been on.

Staff so helpful, friendly and happy. Food was prepared fresh and tasty by 3 chefs. Room and housekeeping was superior. Changed sheets and we had new towels for both room and after dive changed out.

By far one of the best liveaboards I have been on
This was by far one of the best experiences on a liveaboard. The dive guides are super friendly and highly experienced. The crew on the boat is extremely helpful and made sure everyone onboard was taken care of at all times even in the middle of the night. Lastly, the quality of the boat and cabins was superior. I would highly recommend this boat. Special thanks to Hussein (my dive guide), Maradona, Haitham, Darwish and Abu Salah (salon manager). Can’t wait to sail again on this boat.

Our trip on the Blue Liveaboard was amazing. The staff were all incredible, the chefs cooked amazing tasty food and the waiters were fantastic. The dive staff made the diving so enjoyable, there was always one on f them to help with putting on amd removing wetsuits or putting on tanks and helping us onto the zodiac. The dive guides were knowledgeable and really tried to make each dive amazing. We live every minute and will definitely be back.

AMAZING TRIP, 100% RECOMMENDED
Amazing stay at the MY Blue. The boat: it's great, the cabins very clean and spacious, the bathroom impeccable. They offer towels that are changed and a poncho for when you go diving. Crew is very friendly and helpful, and the dive guides are amazing. Diving: the route is fine, we would have liked to spend more days in Brothers (beautiful reef and pelagics sighted), two days in Daedalus was a bit heavy (but because we were not lucky either and we did not see large pelagics), we liked Elphinstone (very good reef and we could see dolphins) but many divers in the same dive (it is closer to the coast and more boats are approaching). Diving safety: great, very good briefings and they offered us a device called ENSO which is a GPS locator that gives more peace of mind. Food: it is SPECTACULAR. They adapt if you have any intolerances or food preferences. A lot of variety, everything very tasty, plated type + buffet. Breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner. Always available soft drinks, coffee, tea and water, plus snacks such as cookies and the like.Season and pelagic: we were lucky to spot hammerhead sharks and Longimanus, but the water was 29-30º at 30m, which makes hammerhead sharks go deeper, and Longimanus was just the beginning of the season, so spotting both was luckier than anything else. The good thing is that when you get out of the water you don't get cold.

A wonderful week of cruising that I organized for 9 people. All are embedded!! Thank you and congratulations to the whole team.
Every day was the most beautiful. Grandiose dives on magnificent wrecks, a very beautiful marine life. We had a visit from the Dauphins twice. Once we dived in with it. Mythical wrecks. Scooter rides (DPV) is just the best on the wrecks and in Sidemount, you can go and get around and see everything, even where some have never been.I organized this cruise for nine divers. All of them were marked for life by this sumptuous week.A flawless organization from the exit of the plane to the return to the airport.Thank you to Liveboard and the whole My Blue Team!!It is the number 1 boat in the Red Sea today!

Offers an extremely high standard of quality in all aspects - safety is taken seriously, food is great, boat is in excellent condition, everyone clearly goes above and beyond basic work ethic. As a side-note: On our trip we only had 2 dive guides for ~20 divers, so for some dives and for some people that might be too few
