It was an excellent dive trip everything was OK
Although we could see only few sharks it was due to the water temperature (27-28 degrees santigrade) thus sharks were below 50 meters. We have seen many kind of fishes. Next time I will try to arrange to come at late September-October or alternatively, late March-April.

relaxed atmosphere, great value for money
I was lucky to get the doublebed cabin on my own due to underbooking. But could not imagine to sleep there as two persons. The boat is not the newest but a good quality for the price paid.

Excellent Trip Thanks to All Crew Onboard !
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. Would go on another trip on this boat, however it is the crew who make it so good!

Just exquisite!
The whole trip just came so nicely together, the route, the people, and the wildlife. I never dived with big sharks before, and was a bit anxious about this, but when first one, and on next dive two curious Longimanos appeared, the guide was right next to me, keeping an eye on everything, so I could enjoy watching these large creatures. Thanks for many (17) great dives!

Amazing Trip!
Our experience on the Golden Dolphin was outstanding, from start to finish. The organisation of the team is excellent which made the transfer from the airport efficient and easy, the staff were really friendly and happy to help out with anything you need. The food was first class! Three large meals a day with different choices of food, fish, meat, salad and veg. The team also provided snacks and fresh fruit in-between meals so you will not go hungry on this boat. The dive guides were very helpful in and out of the water and good fun too. They chose a really good route which maxed out the best diving each day. On the boat the cabins, lounge and sun decks were kept clean and tidy. This is a fantastic boat with a team that really cares so would recommend to anyone looking to dive the red sea - we will be back.

One week in Brothers and Deadulus
We saw the whole thing: Whaleshark, Hummerheads, Oceanic White Tip, Silky and Treasure!!! The crew was friendly and the food was very good. The boat looks is a bit older than the photos, but still in good shape.
