Wrecks, Dolphins and more on an outstanding boat
The highlight was an encounter with a group of 20+ dolphins. Unforgettable! The crew anticipated my wishes before I even knew about them 😎. The diving was perfectly organized and we saw lots of marine life and dived 4 different wrecks. Definitely one of my best diving trips.

Super trip, with a nice crew and beautiful dives!
We had a great trip. The crew does everything they can to give you a pleasant experience. For example, we got nice towel animals in your room twice a day. The food is superb, plenty of choice and they try to take everyone into account. For the BBQ evening, there was even more unpacking. Dive sites were superb. Quiet locations, with not too many divers. Unfortunately we saw few sharks due to the high temperatures, but that didn't make the experience any less fun.Thanks for the nice holiday!

Gladly again with the Blue
We had a fantastic week on board. The organization was excellent from start to finish – everything went professionally, relaxed and smoothly.The crew was incredibly friendly, helpful and always had a smile on their faces. You felt welcome and in good hands from the first moment. The guides were also top: safe, competent and with a lot of passion. They have selected great dive sites and given us wonderful experiences underwater.The boat was clean, well maintained and had enough space to relax. The food was varied and good – even between the dives, the physical well-being was always taken care of.The dives themselves were the absolute highlight: coral reefs, biodiversity and perfect conditions. Safety was always a top priority, without neglecting fun.Thank you to the whole team for this unforgettable trip. We would go on a liveaboard with you again at any time and can recommend Blue without reservation!

Totally loved it!
It was an awesome liveaboard. We had so much fun going to St. John’s reef. The crew members were super friendly and professional. Rooms were very clean and everyday housekeeping would make up your bed and clean all around. I have to say that we were also very well fed, every meal was special and delicious. The chef made sure we ate well, and dive masters made sure we dove well and safe. The debriefing was very professional and SMBs were required by every diver. They also provided gps locator for emergency and nitrox free of charge. Highly recommend this liveaboard and I would definitely dive with them again in the future.

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.
