Most of participants were german people who testify in general a nice mood. We have followed first week BDE route and second week mainly straight of North Tiran. Dahad was particulary a diving area marvelous for which I’ve dove for the first time. Dive masters were very helpful by giving us some exhaustive briefings. To sum up, it was a fantastic diving cruise into Red Sea.

Watching the Oceanic White Tips from the boat and then being in the water with them while diving. Swimming with dolphins who came to visit! Seeing a Thresher Shark, beautiful corals. Fantastic crew, fantastic, friendly, professional dive guides! Wonderful food! Lovely atmosphere onboard with other guests.

Book with Golden Dolphin! The safest and most fun way to see almost everything in the Red Sea!
I don't even know where to begin. From the beginning to the end I had enjoyable moments with the people on the boat and the crew. They were kind and helpful and fun. Their penchant for safety was clear and so were the dive briefings. I loved having nitrox and wifi when available. We saw so much life under the water! It was warm and visibility was fantastic! We saw hammerheads, octopus, manta rays, eagle rays, so many moray eels, hawkfish, puffers, baby clownfish!, red anemones, nudibranchs and so much more. It was some of the best diving I've ever experienced. They even let us jump in the water after our dive to swim with dolphins!! How cool is that? So wonderful. The cabin was clean and comfortable with A/C, which was so nice. The food was also absolutely scrumptious, props to the chef and his assistant. The captain also worked hard bringing us from place to place in such a timely manner. Highly, highly recommend going with Golden Dolphin and I loved being on Golden Dolphin 1 as it is a bit smaller, but that's a personal preference.

- The sheer amount of life in the water - so the locations of the dives were incredible. The staff was so fun and friendly, really made the trip that much more exciting. I felt really safe on the boat and in the water with the guides, which means my fun is maximized..

Red Sea Magic: Corals, Endemic Species, and Historic Wrecks
Had a lovely dive safari in the Red Sea, particularly around Dahab. The underwater scenery was stunning, classic dive sites like Blue Hole, Canyon, SD Thistlegorm packed with healthy corals and unique endemic marine life. Even without many big pelagics, the variety of wrecks and reefs kept every dive exciting. For the price point, the comfort and service aboard the Golden Dolphin were great. The vessel felt like a great home away from home, and the attentive crew made sure we were well looked after from start to finish. Highly recommended!
