Look no further than Ocean Lovers for an amazing Red Sea Diving Adventure
The best boat. The best crew & guides. The best food. The best dive sites. The best friends! This was our second time on this Ocean Lovers and it was every bit as good as the first. We love Ocean Lovers and I suspect there will be a third trip at some point! I cannot recommend it highly enough, it is simply superb. We met some great people. Ahmed was a great guide. Very able and trusting and planned safe and interesting dives. It was lovely to see Ali again. Ramadan is an amazing chef. Seaman Hamid is great guy. Always smiling. All the crew work so hard, there isn't anything more you could ask for. We were on board over Christmas and they laid on a party and presents under the tree. Safety is paramount. Boat condition is excellent. Its spacious and you are made to feel at home and welcome at all times.

unforgettable and extremely rewarding experience
The diving safari was such a great experience! Everything was well organized, the crew was super friendly, and the atmosphere on board was really relaxed. The dive spots were beautiful, with clear water and plenty of marine life. It was the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation, and I’d happily go again.

I can absolutely recommend this trip, the boat and the crew.
Great diving experience with varied dives. We were particularly impressed by the wreck dives. It was also outstanding that despite our one-day flight delay, we were picked up by the crew with the speedboat and so we could not start this unique trip after all

Satisfied 100%
It was my first ever liveaboard experience. And when choosing the boat i wanted to make sure the facilities will be good in case i will not be able to do every dive. The boat is outstanding!! Crew cleaned up few times a day your room, after your quick nap between dives crew would make your bed again. No smell of toilets. Food was like in 5 star hotel, i mean it. I stayed in egypt loads of times but how we were fed at the boat was nothing near it. Crew made you after each dive you being met with some refreshments juice or warm tea. Snack between dives were delicious. I brought my sweets, tea and crisps as i thought this is what will be missed, but it was all on board free of charge. Crew is friendly and nice, dive guides provide great briefing and make the atmosphere safe and fun. The boat is so well designed for diving, i loved the fans that would dry your suites between the dives so you dont need to pull soaked one on. I was there during Christmas, and they made amazing dinner and put up Christmas tree and gave us all a presents. Which was something unexpected and really nice. Dive sites great, i enjoyed wreck diving more then reefs. White tip oceanic shark at brothers island was amazing experience. Overall i would choose Ocean Lovers again but different route.

Nice mix of dive sites that are familiar to me and new ones with perfect service on board.
It was an all-round successful safari and also dive sites I knew such as Daedalus and Elphinstone offered a lot of new things. The absolute highlight for me were the numerous shark encounters.
- Recommended for
- Always friendly faces from the entire crew and prompt help if anything was needed. Good knowledge of the dive sites and excellently adapted dive planning. Plenty of space on board, so that even with the full occupancy of 32 guests, you could always find a quiet place for yourself.

If you want more, stay ashore!
We boarded in Hurghada. The transfer from the hotel was impeccable. The suitcases were brought on board by the crew. We had a cabin on the Upper Deck. I liked the swinging very much, the beds were excellent. The cabin was clean. The engine noise was limited here and was not disturbing. After 3-4 dives you were tired enough not to hear this anymore :-) The food was very, very, very tasty. I would have liked to pack the cook. There were always several things to choose from that were delicious all around. There was something for everyone. The breakfast also left nothing to be desired. The dives were very well prepared. Ali, who did the briefing very well, always felt safe. Also for emergencies, everyone got a buoy with transmitter, which everyone always had on their jacket. This was part of the basic equipment of the boat. During the dives, they always tried to take into account the wishes of the team. Whether you prefer to see shark or coral (if possible). We also had a lot of fun with the team. I would definitely book the Ocean Lovers again if Egypt. Kudos to the crew who tried to accommodate every wish! Please stay that way! It was unforgettable!
