A varied buffet selection is offered for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, featuring a blend of international and traditional Egyptian dishes. Snacks and light refreshments are available throughout the day.
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.
Complimentary WiFi · Nitrox provided free of charge for certified divers
Mandatory local charges, including environmental taxes, national park fees, port fees, and departure fees, typically range from 65 EUR to 130 EUR per person per trip. · Marine park fees and port taxes — approx. €150–200 per person per week (paid in cash on board)
Complimentary group transfers are provided between Sharm El Sheikh airport or local accommodations and the Snefro Pearl on designated embarkation and disembarkation days.
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.
Rental equipment, including BCDs, regulators, wetsuits, and dive computers, is available for hire. Specific pricing for individual items or full equipment bundles can be obtained onboard.
