Beautiful boat, amazing crew and awesome dives!
A Stunning Vessel and an Unforgettable Dive Experience The boat is a true beauty—fully renovated in 2024, it gleams like it just rolled off the showroom floor. We were a group of four: two stayed in a main deck cabin with a double bed, while the other two enjoyed a cozy lower deck cabin with twin beds. Both cabins were stylish, comfortable, and cleverly designed to fit all your luggage under the bed (yes, even that suitcase you swore you'd pack light in). Plus, there are closets for all your extras—because we all know dive gear tends to multiply. Cabin Comforts & Charging Quirks Each cabin comes equipped with European-style two-pin outlets (French/Spanish...), and they’re also compatible with American plugs—no adapter gymnastics required. Just a heads-up: for safety reasons, you can’t leave your electronics charging while you're out diving. So, plan your power-ups accordingly! Top-Notch Dive Gear & Nitrox Perks We rented our equipment onboard and were pleasantly surprised with brand-new 5mm full wetsuits—no mystery smells or questionable zippers here. If you're doing multiple dives a day (and trust us, you will), we highly recommend diving with Nitrox—it’s included in the rate and makes a noticeable difference. For those looking to level up, the Nitrox course is also available onboard. Marine Magic & Culinary Overload We hit the jackpot underwater: two thresher sharks, a handful of hammerheads, and one majestic manta ray. The reef itself is thriving—vibrant corals, abundant marine life, and colors that make your camera work overtime. Now, the only “downside”? The food. And by downside, we mean you'll need a post-trip diet plan. The buffet-style meals—breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks—are generous, delicious, and relentless. Resistance is futile. Crew That Feels Like Family The crew is exceptional—warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in making your trip unforgettable. From dive briefings to snack refills, they’ve got you covered with a smile.

Nice vessel for BDE route
Brothers, Daedalus and Elphinstone route in January 2025. Staff was friendly and helpful, boat was more spacious and confortable than other destinations for the same price. January is not the best month for that destination : no shark, no pelagic, bad visibility. Dive spots definitely have potential, but March to November seems to be a better bet.

I will come back to the Red Sea
I enjoy a lot in this trip with the people (divers). I didn't like the way to manage the tip at the end of the trip, open envelopes and 2 envelopes, one for the dive guide and the other for the rest of the crew. In fact the dive guide ask me about the quantity that I gave (40€ like your web recommended) because he expected 60€. I think the tip must be confidential, only one enevelope per customer and no 2 open evelopes for all the customers. Merry Xmas

Conclusion - okay!
Conclusion: ok - your own high expectations were not met, the dive guide can have bad luck once, but in Elphinstone at 38m 10min senseless against the current with a 12l aluminum is no fun (the other group of our boat had a pleasant dive), and that was the case with many dives. The smallest, narrowest main deck cabin, little storage spaceFor breakfast you have to take your (solution) coffee or tea from the Sundeck into the salon on the main deck, cold toast - no toaster at the buffet....Briefings in detail in French about what great things we could see, a little less detailed in English, but where exactly the boat is in relation to the dive site, not. The tanks were always well filled, Nitrox % constant
