Highlights
Completely renovated in 2019, the MY Sunlight liveaboard is a 34m yacht offering year-round Red Sea dive safaris. She caters to 20 guests in 10 modest cabins, each with single and double beds, individually controlled air-conditioning, and private ensuite bathrooms. The indoor salon and dining room feature air-conditioning, comfortable sofas, and a drink station. A large, partially covered sunbathing area and an outdoor lounge are on the upper deck. The perfect place to hang out with your new dive buddies to swap dive stories at the end of the day.
Located at the stern of the boat is a large dive deck with rinse tanks, storage space, and a platform for easy entry into the 2 zodiacs or straight into the water. Divers can choose 3 itineraries, the North Route, South Route, and Deep South Route, aboard the M/Y Sunlight. The North Route is perfect for wreck lovers with dives as the world-famous SS Thistlegorm, Rosalie Muller, and Carnatic, as well as reef dives at Ras Mohammed National Park & Tiran. The Southern Red Sea route offers amazing drift diving and big fish action at the Brothers, Elphinstone, and Daedalus. For the more adventurous, the Deep South Route explores that little bit further to St. Johns for pristine diving and stops at Rocky, Zabargad, and Elphinstone.
Whichever route you choose, the crew of the MY Sunlight liveaboard is on hand to show you the fantastic dive sites of the Red Sea. Book online today to reserve your space.

Very recomendable liveaboard, complete route with beat diving and.guides
Diving was super nice, we did a very complete north route, Hamada, our local guide is super good, he loves what he do and allowed us to enjoy long dives in the best spots, very good guide with lots of patience, also Daria, the other guide, super good and doing her best for us. I find the groups were quite big, another guide would have made it better reducing the amount of divers per group. The staff of the boat were all attentive and doing the best for us, special attention to Mahmoud and the cook who prepared us delicious food

Great experience for good money
We had a really good time during our 8d/7n trip with the sunlight. The crew is super friendly and anxious 24/7. The food is amazing and fresh and they try to serve all the leftovers from the days before in a new and modern way of cooking. I really love that! Please don't stop this. Diving was great, we did 17 dives at Deadalus, big and small brother, elphinstone, Abu Dabba and Marsa shouna. The guide is really great. He makes diving safe and guards you properly through the red sea. We saw many Longimanus and a silk shark, Mantas, Murray eel and many colorful fish and corals. We did one night dive which was amazing, loved it! Guest were mostly Russians, just 6 European guests (including us). There is a free group transfer from Hurghada Airport (just ask for it via email, otherwise they support you with a private transfer which we payed 60€ for, because flight times didn't fit). The boat itself is not a brand new one but still offers everything you need. Definitely recommended!

Nice diving with a lovley crew
Highlight was diving with hammerheads and octopus :) The food was amazing and the crew lovely. The bed was small and not comfy but ok. Most of the divers where Russian with almost zero English knowledge, I would want to know that, if I'm traveling alone.

I am satisfied and I would come again
Good service, friendly crew, good food, competent diving guides and very varied, safe and thoroughly discussed dives. Free nitrox 28-30%. The boat is modestly equipped, but it is clean and everything works properly except the Internet. The living room and dining room are the same room. There is very little space in most cabins (lower deck), but at the low price you can't have high expectations. Air conditioning in cabins and salon works well. The towels are very worn - they should be replaced with new ones. There is no problem with communicating in English with the crew and diving guides. Most of the guests were Russians because the boat belongs to a Russian diving center (Sadko) - for some guests this may be an advantage, for others a language problem, for others an additional attraction or a disadvantage.
