Unforgettable Red Sea adventures with comfort and exceptional diving.
The Sea Serpent navigates the dynamic marine environment of Egypt's Red Sea, providing access to extensive coral formations and diverse pelagic encounters. The stark desert coastlines of Egypt give way to a marine world shaped by intense sunlight and minimal riverine influence. The resulting high salinity and clear waters have fostered the growth of vast, continuous fringing reefs along the coast…

Dining aboard the Sea Serpent is a delightful experience, with a full-board meal plan that includes breakfast, lunch, and dinner served buffet-style. Guests can enjoy a variety of delicious dishes, complemented by snacks available throughout the day and an abundance of fresh fruit. Complimentary soft drinks, tea, and coffee are always on hand. The crew is attentive to dietary needs, offering vegetarian and vegan options upon request, ensuring every guest enjoys satisfying and well-prepared meals in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere.
The Red Sea is widely regarded as one of the world's top diving destinations, famous for its exceptional visibility often exceeding 30 meters and warm waters throughout the year. Divers encounter a remarkable variety of marine life, from oceanic whitetip sharks, hammerheads, and grey reef sharks to graceful manta rays and pods of spinner dolphins. The region offers world-class wreck diving, including the legendary SS Thistlegorm, and pristine coral reefs at Ras Mohammed National Park. Southern itineraries explore remote offshore reefs such as Daedalus, Elphinstone, and the Brothers Islands, where dramatic walls plunge into the deep blue and large pelagics patrol the currents. Vibrant coral gardens host dense schools of anthias, butterflyfish, and giant moray eels, while macro enthusiasts find nudibranchs and ghost pipefish hiding among the reef.
VAT · Airport Transfer
Marine park fees and port taxes — approx. €150–200 per person per week (paid in cash on board) · Dive Insurance (7 EUR)
Return airport transfers and hotel transfers are included in the trip price. The vessel typically departs from Hurghada or Port Ghalib.
We strongly recommend all guests to purchase comprehensive dive accident insurance and trip cancellation insurance before departure. Dive accident insurance covers medical treatment, hyperbaric chamber costs, and emergency evacuation in the event of a diving incident. Trip cancellation insurance protects your financial investment — not only if you need to cancel or cut short your trip due to personal illness, injury, or other unforeseen circumstances, but also if the trip is postponed or cancelled by the operator due to severe weather, technical issues, or other operational reasons. In the unlikely event of operator insolvency, cancellation insurance can also help recover your payments. Please ensure your policies are valid for the entire duration of your trip and cover the planned activities.
