M/Y Blue Adveturer used to be known as Red Sea Adventurer, and is a very popular liveaboard offering trips to all of The Red Sea's best diving areas. Recently refurbished, the boat is 32 metres long and 8 metres wide. Up to 22 guests stay in twin, double and single cabins, but for full charters it's possible to accommodate 24 guests. It is set up to offer Nitrox with single or twin tanks, rebreather and technical diving.
The boat has four decks, guest cabins two suit all needs, and plenty of communal areas to socialise or relax alone, in couples or small groups. These include air-conditioned indoor and outdoor areas. The team are well established, professional and have lots of experience diving in The Red Sea. This includes the whole team, from the crew, the dive staff and those in the kitchen. Don't expect to lose any weight on your Blue Adventurer Red Sea liveaboard cruise. There's plenty of delicious food served several times during the day.
On the top deck of the boat is a large sunbathing area, with seating and shade. Then the upper deck has two double-bed cabins and a huge outdoor communal area. The cabins have doors which open out onto the deck, giving guests the best welcome every morning. The communal area on this deck is where mony guests spend most of their time on board. There's plenty of seating both in the shade and exposed, plus tables, beanbags and a bar. Here you can enjoy the sea breeze and wonderful views while chilling out with a drink until it's time to retire to your cabin.
The main deck of Blue Adventurer has two single cabins at the front, the huge dining saloon & lounge, and the dive deck. The wonderful food provided on board is normally enjoyed in the air-conditioned dining room that has two long tables, and plenty of seating for all guests. Just behind the dining area is the lounge with sofas, AV entertainment and more than enough reading material. Then outside at the back is the large and well-designed dive deck. It has two levels, a non-slip floor and each diver has space to store and put on their gear. Well-designed ladders enable divers to climb while still wearing fins, and although you can start and end a dive from the boat, Blue Adventurer also uses motorised tender dinghies to drop off and collect divers when necessary. On the lower deck there are eight twin-bed guest cabins, all of which have private bathrooms, air conditioning and televisions.
Whichever cabin or itinerary you choose for your Red Sea diving cruise on Blue Adventurer, you will experience a wonderful time both on board and underwater.

Itinerary
Blue Adventurer trips are seven days & nights in length. The trips start on Friday afternoons, but in most cases the boat stays in the harbour until the Saturday morning. This means that if you're arriving later on the Friday you can still join the trip. The boat returns to the harbour the following Thursday, usually after two morning dives, and guests disembark on Friday morning, after breakfast.
On average, there are 18 dives per trip, but this can be slightly more or less, depending on the sea & weather conditions, the trips' destinations and other factors. For example, night diving is not allowed within Egypt's National Marine Parks, or your post-trip flight time might restrict your final day's diving. Each itinerary is designed to maximise the number and quality of dives, and to allow for 24 hours to off gas and enable guests to disembark the boat and fly on the same day.
Please check the planned destinations for each trip in the boat's schedule further up this page.
The itineraries below are the most-common for each trip, but these can sometimes be changed for a number of reasons. Small changes are made due to weather & sea conditions, special marine life sightings, overcrowded dive sites, local-authorities' instructions, and the needs & requests of the paying guests. The safety & comfort of all guests is most important at all times.
