Itinerary: Straits of Tiran & North
Dates: 22nd February – 1st March 2019
Aboard: M/Y Blue Fin

 

The Itinerary…

The Strait of Tiran and North cruise allows you to take in some of the most iconic wrecks and reefs the northern Red Sea has to offer as well as the pristine coral reefs of Tiran.

The Tiran dive area is found in the entrance to the Gulf of Aqaba and is made up of four main reefs that form the top of an underwater bridge. These reefs, named after British cartographers (Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas, Gordon), are world famous for their extraordinary diversity of corals and strong southwesterly currents make them home to many large pelagic fish.

Spend four days cruising the northern Red Sea. Normally you will have the opportunity to make three day dives and a night dive each day. The exact itinerary and order of dive sites will vary depending on the conditions but you can expect to visit plenty of wrecks including SS. Thistlegorm. There is also some fantastic reef diving including the Ras Mohamed and Tiran marine parks, Sha’ab El Erg (famous for dolphin encounters) and the island of Gubal.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Vessel…

M/Y Blue Fin is the first in the blue o two fleet and with her understated luxury and unique layout remains a very popular choice. Updated in early 2016, M/Y Blue Fin is a traditional style liveaboard vessel that has some unique twists that keep her standing out from the crowd. Three huge king suites dominate the bow on the lower and middle decks, spreading almost the

whole width of the vessel. All other cabins are twins and are located on the lower deck. All benefit from ensuite facilities, air conditioning, mini refrigerators and personal entertainment systems. TV’s in the communal areas are also equipped with an Apple TV and a hard drive containing movies and TV series. M/Y Blue Fin is equipped with a nitrox membrane, booster pump and can also cater for rebreather divers.
