MY Sea Serpent

The first of its fleet is 'MY Sea Serpent' which is a very popular Red Sea liveaboard, for many good reasons. There's a wide choice of itineraries, comfortable cabins on different decks, and a very experienced team of local & western crew. The boat has a clever hull design which offers smooth, fast, safe and easy crossings between some of the best dive locations in The Red Sea.

Sea Serpent is 34 metres long and 7.5 metres wide, making it easily large enough to handle any rough seas, but also giving up to 22 lucky guests plenty of space to enjoy the cruise. This space can be seen inside the cabins, the air-conditioned lounge saloon, and of course out on deck. And the diving platform is also large and well designed. Nitrox is available for free and each diver gets his or her own tank slot and place to store equipment and gear up before each dive.

Starting at the top of the boat we have the flydeck, which can also be called the sun deck. Up here you will find lots of soft seating and sofas to enjoy the 360° views day or night, plus there are sun loungers which enable you to top up your tan, nap, or read a good book. There also beanbags. The boat's upper deck is a very popular area. Here we have more soft seating, in a fully shaded and an exposed area. There's a self service bar and more sun loungers at the front of the boat. Also, on this upper deck are two double-bed cabins and a twin cabin. These three cabins each has a large window and a door that opens out to the stunning views of Egypt's Red Sea.

Sea Serpent's main deck is all communal areas, and most are indoors. Here you can enjoy delicious meals, served buffet style throughout the trip. Vegetarians are fed as well as everyone else, and the food is a great blend of local and western cuisine. There are four large dining tables in the air-conditioned restaurant / diving room. To the rear of this area there's a lounge saloon which has a large flat-screen tv with multimedia facilities. And you will find a staircase down to the lower deck guest cabins. At the rear of the main deck is the huge dive platform, which is easily big enough to safely accommodate a full boat of divers.

Finally, on the lower deck are nine standard twin-bed cabins, all of which has a private bathroom, air conditioning, porthole windows and mini fridge. If you join the trip alone we will only put you in a cabin with another guest of the same gender.

Prices & Schedule

Sea Serpent trips begin every Thursday evening. Guests are usually picked up from local hotels and airports during the afternoon and taken to the boat.

On Friday morning Sea Serpent will depart from the marina and you get two or sometimes three dives that day.

Saturday to Tuesday you can dive up to three (and sometimes four) times per day. Night diving is not allowed within the marine parks.

On Wednesday there are up to two dives in the morning. The boat sails back to the marina, allowing your dive equipment to dry and your body to release excess nitrogen. On Wednesday night you sleep on the boat in the marina, or sometimes in a local hotel.

On Thursday morning everyone leaves the boat after breakfast.
