Aphrodite liveAboard

LIVEABOARD · RED SEA · EGYPT

Scuba Diving Safari

A liveaboard takes you to sites day boats can’t reach — Brothers Islands, Daedalus, Rocky Island. You stay in one comfortable place all week, with the same crew and the same dive guide. Groups are split by experience level. Technical diving available. Courses on board. That’s what M/Y Aphrodite is built for.

WHY LIVEABOARD

You Can't Get This on a Day Trip.

On a day boat you’re one of 30 divers who don’t know each other, with a guide who’s never seen you dive and a boat that turns around by 4pm. On a liveaboard you live with the same small group all week, dive the same sites with the same guide who learns your pace, and reach reefs a day boat simply can’t get to and back from in one day.

🗺️

Sites Day Boats Can’t Reach

Brothers, Daedalus, Rocky, Zabargad, St. John’s — reached only by liveaboard, days from the coast.

🎯

Groups Split by Experience

No mixed groups. Divers are placed with others of a similar level and pace, so every dive matches your ability.

🧭

One Guide, One Week

The same dive guide leads you all week. By Day 2 they know how you dive and adjust the plan to suit you.

📚

Courses on Board

AOWD, Rescue, Nitrox, Deep speciality — complete a course during the safari without losing dive time.

🤿

Technical Diving

Twin set, rebreather welcome. Extended range and technical divers are supported with the right setup.

🏡

Unpack Once

One cabin, one crew, one boat for the whole week. No packing bags or changing hotels mid-trip.
