WHAT PEOPLE CHARTER FOR

One Boat. Many Reasons.

A private charter means the boat is exclusively yours — no shared cabins, no strangers at dinner, no compromise on schedule or itinerary. Whatever you want to do with a week on the Red Sea, we make it work.
🤿

Private Dive Expedition

A group of experienced divers who want Brothers Islands, Daedalus and Elphinstone on their own schedule. Two compressors, free Nitrox 32%, your own guide. Use one of our 13 established routes or build your own.
🏢

Corporate Event & Team Building

A week on a boat does something to a team that a conference room cannot. Shared experience at remote reefs, communal meals, evenings anchored in silence. The saloon accommodates presentations.
👪

Family Trip

Three generations on one boat works well. The Red Sea is safe for swimmers, snorkellers and non-divers. Flexible meal times and children’s requirements accommodated.
🎉

Celebration & Private Event

Birthday, anniversary, wedding party, hen or stag week — a private boat is a private venue that moves. Special occasion catering and decoration arranged on request.
🧘

Private Yoga or Wellness Retreat

Bring your own teacher and group for a fully customised wellness week. Your teacher sets the programme, we provide the boat, meals, snorkelling and the location. Sataya dolphins, sheltered bays.
📸

Film, Photo & Content Production

M/Y Aphrodite has been used as a production base for underwater photography. Camera table, rinse stations, stable anchoring. Brothers, Daedalus and Elphinstone are world-class underwater locations.
