The legendary offshore reefs of the southern Red Sea - steep walls, pristine coral and big pelagics including sharks. An advanced liveaboard safari with full board on a dedicated dive boat.
Brothers, Daedalus & Elphinstone is a 7-night liveaboard safari to the southern Red Sea's legendary offshore reefs — famous for sheer walls, big fish and sharks. Living aboard the boat, you dive up to three or four times a day on remote pinnacles far from the coast, with the chance to see grey reef, hammerhead and oceanic whitetip sharks along dramatic coral walls. Full board, your cabin, tanks, weights and air fills are included.
These are advanced sites with current and deep drop-offs, so Advanced certification, a good number of logged dives and recent experience are required. Nitrox and a surface marker buoy are strongly recommended, along with dive insurance.
Space on these offshore safaris is limited and popular weeks book up months ahead, so early reservation is wise. A good torch, a surface marker buoy and dive insurance are essential, and Nitrox makes the repetitive deep dives far more comfortable across the week.
The offshore reefs are known for grey reef and hammerhead sharks, and oceanic whitetips at Elphinstone and Daedalus, along with big schooling fish.
No — the strong currents and deep walls make it an advanced trip. You should be Advanced-certified with recent, logged experience.
Drift dives along sheer walls and around remote pinnacles, with big pelagics — some of the most exciting diving in the Red Sea.
