Liveaboard
Red Sea Liveaboard — BDE, Egypt, September 7–14 2024
One of the legendary diving cruises of Egypt and the Red Sea, also called the golden triangle, on the dive sites of Brothers, Daedalus and Elphinstone.
Vertiginous walls exposed to currents which offer abundant wildlife from small to large. The BDE sites are full of beautiful gorgonian fans, colorful parrot fish, and large schools of fish such as batfish, snapper, nason, barracuda and trevally.
Shark lovers will be in paradise: expect to come across many species — gray, longimanus, hammerhead, thresher, whitetip, albimarginatus and silky sharks. Two awesome wrecks are also on the route!
Only accessible by liveaboard, the two Brothers Islands are rooted at a depth of more than 500m. Made up of two flat tops exposed to the currents, pelagic life abounds there — sites renowned worldwide for the beauty of their walls and the diversity of underwater life. A privileged place to encounter thresher sharks, hammerheads and longimanus sharks, plus two beautiful wrecks: the Numidia and the Aïda 2.
This reef offers a multitude of diving sites: a large flat top in the south and a drop-off to the north with an incredible abundance of anemones and clown fish, Napoleons, and magnificent corals. Also an excellent site for encountering sharks, particularly hammerheads, grays and longimanus.
One of the most famous reefs in Egypt. Drop-offs at more than 100m deep, full of corals and colorful fish, with two flat tops at 25m and 45m forming a magnificent arch around which schools of trevally, tuna and all types of sharks gravitate depending on the season.
You can find here a video clip of the trip.

The Revillagigedo Archipelago is located in the Eastern Pacific, 386km southwest of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula. Often described as the Galapagos of Mexico, it's only accessible by liveaboard — it isn't possible to set foot on land during the trip! It's made up of four almost deserted volcanic islands: Socorro, San Benedicto, Roca Partida and Clarion, around which the dives are organized.
The surrounding waters are abundant in marine life, including a remarkable concentration of large pelagic species such as oceanic manta rays, a multitude of shark species (hammerhead, silky, whitetip, tiger, coral, galapagos, and even whale sharks), whales and dolphins.
The diving season in Socorro runs from November to June. The temperature ranges between 23–26°C (73–78°F) from Nov–Jan, and is cooler from Feb–May at 20–23°C (68–73°F). Some species are only present during certain periods: whale sharks (Nov/Dec–May/June), humpback whales (Jan–March), with the best chances of seeing schools of hammerhead sharks from April to June.
