The far south of the Egyptian Red Sea - remote reefs, caves and gardens teeming with life, away from the crowds. A multi-day liveaboard safari with full board for experienced divers.
St John's is a 7-night liveaboard to the far south of the Egyptian Red Sea, close to the Sudanese border — a maze of pristine reefs, caves and coral gardens with superb visibility. Living aboard, you dive up to three or four times a day through swim-throughs, over untouched hard-coral gardens and around pinnacles busy with reef fish, and sometimes dolphins and sharks. Full board, your cabin, tanks, weights and air fills are included.
St John's is remote with some current and cave/swim-through dives, so Advanced certification and comfort with navigation are recommended. Nitrox is available and dive insurance is required. It's a long transfer south, so most trips depart from a southern port — we'll confirm details when you book.
Because St John's lies so far south, the reefs see fewer divers and the coral is remarkably pristine. The warm southern water and long days make for relaxed diving, and the remote setting means dark skies and brilliant stars on the night crossings between sites.
Some of the most pristine reefs in Egypt — caves and swim-throughs at sites like St John's Caves, plus coral gardens and the chance of dolphins and sharks.
No — the 'caves' are light, open swim-throughs dived with a guide, not technical cave diving. Good buoyancy helps.
St John's trips usually leave from a southern Red Sea port such as Port Ghalib; we'll confirm the departure point and transfers with your booking.
