Value for money
If you want a solid safe crew and boat and your focus is on diving you will enjoy. If you are wanting luxury and pampering probably not for you.

Best diving I’ve ever done
The guide, Peter, had so much knowledge about the different sites and animals that lived there. Thanks to him, and a fair share of luck, we found so much amazing marine life. The crew is always joking around and they are very helpful. The food was almost too amazing, the chef really puts a lot of effort into every meal and it definitively pays off. Such a great liveaboard for a good price! Will absolutely be back.

I found my home in the Red Sea. I will come back every year.
This stay was a real success! I am used to diving cruises in the Red Sea, I have already done all the itineraries, but more particularly the BDE cruises (it was my 7th). For me, it was the best cruise I've ever done in the Red Sea! Perfect organization! The quality of the diving was absolutely remarkable! We were lucky for sure, but everything was planned to maximize our chances of having underwater encounters. In terms of safety, I have never seen such a level of preparation and anticipation: really congratulations to the dive guides!! The food is exceptional, I eat a lot of vegetables, there were several varieties of raw vegetables and cooked vegetables every day, but also always pasta or chips, meat and fish. There is always dessert, pastry, oriental fruit. It's really great. I haven't been sick once (it's the first time in Egypt!). Whether it's the crew, the catering team and of course Ahmed (special shout out to you my brother!), Mohammed and Mickael: the three best dive guides I've ever had in the Red Sea!I travel several times a year to go on cruises around the world. I have my base in the Maldives, I always return on the same boat. Now I have my base in the Red Sea: it's absolutely certain that my next cruises will be on the same boat and with the same team! (I have more than 900 dives)

Amazing!
The trip with JP Marine was absolutely fantastic. Everyone working on the boat was so friendly and worked really hard to ensure we had the best experience possible. The dive guides were great people and did a wonderful job in briefing us well and guiding us through some amazing dive spots in the Red Sea. Food was great and plentiful with healthy options. We had a wonderful group of people on the trip from various different countries. Did the BED trip and saw thresher, hammerhead and oceanic white tip sharks, as well as many other amazing creatures. Highly recommended with JP Marine!
