Dive Area & Sites

The Red Sea is renowned for its exceptional diving, offering a diverse underwater landscape from vibrant coral reefs to historic shipwrecks. Visibility is typically excellent, often exceeding 30 meters, and water temperatures are comfortably warm year-round. The MY Blue explores iconic sites such as the Northern Wrecks and Reefs, including the famous Thistlegorm and Abu Nuhas, along with the pristine Southern Marine Parks like Rocky, Zabargad, Daedalus, and Brothers. These itineraries promise encounters with a rich variety of marine life, from colorful reef fish and turtles to sharks and other pelagic species. Divers can expect a mix of drift dives, wall dives, and wreck explorations, catering to various skill levels and interests. The diving operations on board the MY Blue are highly professional and geared towards maximizing guest enjoyment and safety. Up to 21 dives are offered per week, providing extensive opportunities to explore. The vessel features a spacious dive deck for gear preparation and a dedicated camera station for photographers. Tenders are utilized for convenient transfers to and from dive sites, ensuring easy access to the best spots. Nitrox is complimentary for certified divers, and the boat supports rebreather and sidemount diving, along with providing DIN adapters. Dive guides are knowledgeable and experienced, offering thorough briefings and ensuring safe, memorable underwater adventures.

Insurance Recommendation

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.
