We are receiving regular feedback from excited guests on Red Sea liveaboards and day-boats that shark sightings are on the increase. There have even been some very special visitors to a house reef in Safaga!

Shark season in the Red Sea traditionally runs from May to October, and during this time liveaboard operators focus on itineraries specifically created for divers looking to maximise their chances of diving with sharks. Favoured sites include The Brothers, Daedalus, Elphinstone, Fury Shoal and St. John’s Reef.

Hammerheads, silvertips, silkies, oceanic white tips and threshers are often spotted at The Brothers, and sightings of grey reef sharks are common on the North and South Plateaux of Small Brother. Elphinstone offers regular encounters with oceanic white tips, while Daedalus is famous for its schools of hammerheads. The more southerly sites of Fury Shoal and St. John’s Reef are famous for hammerheads, grey sharks, silvertips and white tip reef sharks.

We offer a number of trips that visit these legendary sites, flights are available from a number of UK airports.

Guests returning from many Red Sea resorts are also reporting an increase in shark sightings on their day-boat trips. Divers looking for a land-based holiday with the chance of getting up close and personal with sharks should head to El Quseir, Marsa Alam, Shams Alam or Hamata.

Finally, how about diving over a house reef and bumping into a whaleshark? This is exactly what could happen to you when diving on Coral Garden’s magnificent house reef in Safaga. Several whaleshark encounters have been reported by excited divers, with video footage eagerly being shared on social media.

We are delighted to announce the addition of the beautiful Red Sea Aggressor II to our liveaboard product range, enabling UK divers to once more experience the world-famous diving upon which Sharm built its reputation.

Operated by the acclaimed Aggressor Fleet, the Red Sea Aggressor II is a brand new luxury liveaboard providing the highest standards of quality and personal service. Itineraries run from Saturday to Saturday and depart from Hurghada.

Highlights include the world-famous wrecks of the Thistlegorm, Rosalie Moller and Abu Nuhas. Guests will also dive the legendary sites for which Sharm gained its reputation, including the Ras Mohamed National Park and Straits of Tiran, featuring the stunning reefs of Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas and Gordon; known for their extraordinary diversity of coral and pelagics.

Our Director, Andreas Elia, said: “We are very excited to be able to bring this stunning new liveaboard into our Red Sea product range. With Sharm airport currently off limits for UK divers, this represents their best option to dive world famous sites that have been thrilling divers for decades.
