Itineraries

There are two ways to exerience diving from a liveaboard in Sudan: a two week trip departing from Egypt, or a ten day trip with departure from Port Sudan.  

The first option is to fly with a direct charter flight to Egypt and depart from the Marsa Alam area.  In this way, you get to dive the southern Egyptian Red Sea including St Johns, while on your way to Sudan.  There is plenty of time for diving some of the best sites in the Red Sea, while enjoying all of the comforts that only a liveaboard can offer.
On this type of trip, there is no time spent on shore in Sudan. 

The second option involves flying to Cairo, then onward towards Port Sudan.  Due to flight scheduling, and that there is only one flight a week between Cairo and Port Sudan, an overnight in Cairo is required in both directions.  For those of you that have not have the opportunity to visit the pyramids or Cairo museum, there will be time to do just that.
