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.

Amazing experience for a first liveaboard
First time on a liveaboard and it couldn't have been better ! The dives were great, the crew was nice and helpful, the food was magnificent. The reefs are very beautiful and we had some luck with sharks and turtles. Everyone on the boat got along great and it was a really fun time. The Liveaboard team was also excellent, answering all our questions and accommodating to our requests.

Family atmosphere like at home
We had a great week of vacation!Generally speaking, the whole team is super nice and everything is very well organized. Even before arriving there are many exchanges to organize our pick-up at our hotel (included in the price). You can board the boat, eat and sleep there the day before departure, while all passengers arrive. You are very quickly put at ease and you feel at home!Once on board we never lacked anything. The staff was very caring. The boat was very clean and we were 15 divers so not too many. There were plenty of common areas so that we didn't have to lock ourselves in the cabins. The boat is certainly smaller than others but there is everything you need on board and we don't step on each other.Our cabin on the lower deck was small but very good and more than enough. We slept very well. The shower is very hot with pressure and it's very appreciable when you come back from the dives when the water was at 24°C!The meals on board were all excellent and above all very varied. We had local food but also a little more international dishes. The 2 chef brothers cook wonderfully, they delighted us! The buffet was generous, we were able to help ourselves multiple times. On board, everything is included (even sodas) except beers which are extra. And if you're afraid of feeling peckish between dives, there are always a few self-service snacks.As for the dives, we didn't get to see a lot of sharks but we did some great dives and saw some beautiful underwater scenery. Despite a group of 9 people + our guide, we never felt like we were part of an underwater summer camp. Our guide was able to give enough freedom to each of us while ensuring guidance and safety. This is something we enjoyed immensely as dive instructors. Thank you for that!

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

Brilliant liveaboard experience!
The chef is a wizard! The food was really amazing! Diving is beautiful and the guides are very knowledgeable. Cabins are comfortable. Staff are friendly and helpful. Such a good price for a perfect trip! The boat is mostly Russians so it is sometimes hard to fit in. Would be nice to have a variety of nationalities. Other than that, I cannot fault this trip. Perfect!
