Red Sea Liveaboards

[Andy Mac]

Hello

Has anyone got any recommendations of dive operators doing good value liveaboards in the red sea? Im looking to go with a mate in early june and trying to bargain hunt in this credit crunch!

Any suggestions gratefully received..

I have been twice with Emperor Divers (Red Sea Diving with Emperor - dive resorts, liveaboards and PADI courses). I recommend them. They also have special prices for Liveaboards about 2 weeks before departure.

Best Regards

Question is too vague. Where in the red sea are you looking to go ?

He's after good-value, cheap liveaboards, so in the Red Sea the cheapest itinerary is the northern wreck safari, generally Ž£150-200 cheaper than Simply the Best, etc.

Try blueotwo.com (Blue Fin, 5-12 June, North and Ras Mo, Ž£899) and scuba.co.uk (Typhoon, 30 May - 6 June, Wrecks and Reefs, Ž£850). Others to try are regaldive.co.uk and emperordivers.com

It doesn't matter where in the Red Sea you want to go. You can go anywhere with any operator worth the ticket. If you want hints on what's good at what time of year you can check out my website WELCOME TO AZIAB where you find a page caller "Yearly Cycle" with info on what's going on where in the Red Sea at what time of the year.

What operator to use... There are a few good but only one Excellent blueOtwo Scuba Diving Holidays for more info. If you want to se wrecks or sharks or dugong... no worries they'll arrange that...

If you have more questions feel free to send me an email or PM here at SB.

I've dived with Emperor and Blue o Two liveaboards. Blue o Two is hands down better - they pay attention to you, great dive briefings, attention to safety, excellent rental equipment.

My experience with Emperor wasn't as pleasant. The attention to safety wasn't there - (no one looking for divers when the dive was happening) and rental equipment was shoddy (bad regulators, tank valves, suits/boots old worn out)

All of the liveaboards are running specials - just get on their newsletter lists.
