The Vessel

Not Refurbished. Reimagined.

In 2025, M/Y Aphrodite went through a transformation that was never just about fresh paint. Every interior space was redesigned from scratch — new layouts, new materials, new light. The exterior received the same treatment, including a hand-painted hull by a renowned street artist working in the tradition of Greek mythology. The result is a boat that turns heads in every port she enters.

On board, you feel the difference immediately. Cabins that don’t feel like cabins. Shared spaces that invite you to stay. A sun deck designed for long mornings and slow afternoons. A dining area where the food consistently surprises people who expected “liveaboard food.”

Aphrodite has always been run by the same captain — over 30 years on the Red Sea, at her helm since day one. The 2025 restoration gave the boat a new look. The character was already there.

The Cabins

Your Cabin. Your Space. No Compromises.

Every one of Aphrodite’s 11 cabins comes with its own private bathroom — shower, toilet, and bidet — so you never share your morning routine with a stranger. Air conditioning, comfortable beds, plush towels, bathrobes, slippers, and a stocked mini bar. This isn’t a bunk on a dive boat. It’s a room you’ll actually want to come back to after three dives.

On Board

Between Dives, the Boat Becomes the Destination.

The Sun Deck. Your Outdoor Living Room.

The top deck of Aphrodite is where most guests end up between dives and don’t leave until dinner. Lined with sun loungers and deck chairs, it catches the best light from sunrise to sunset. Yoga mats are always available. The view changes every day — today a reef, tomorrow an island, the night after open water and stars.

Three Bars. Always One Within Reach.

Three bars spread across the decks means there’s always somewhere to land after a dive. Coffee before the first briefing, fresh juice at lunch, a cold soft drink at sunset — all included. Indoor lounge areas provide shade and shelter when the wind picks up.

Built for the Serious Diver.

Equipment is set up and ready before you wake up. Tank fills, weight checks, gear rinse — the dive crew handles it so you focus on the dive. The deck is wide enough to kit up comfortably and has direct water access. After the dive: rinse tanks, hang your wetsuit, and head straight to the camera table or the bar.

DINING

Food That Takes the Safari Seriously.

Full-board buffet dining, three times a day, plus mid-morning and afternoon snacks. Fresh breakfast before the first dive. A proper lunch when you surface. Dinner at anchor, sometimes with a special campfire celebration on a deserted island. Our guests consistently rate the food as one of the highlights of the trip.
