Ultimate Thrill Ride – Red Sea Shark Safari

Sharks – They’re provocative, powerful and maybe just a little scary, but we know that every diver out there is secretly (or not so secretly) absolutely desperate to see these awesome predators up close and personal … Well Shark Safari 2011 is your chance to do just that !

Our Shark Safari Warm Water Rush Trip has proven to be one of our most popular WWR options ever, and is now in its seventh year, having proved to be a massive success every year previously. The basic concept is to head to the crystal clear waters of the Red Sea, but to then head as far away from the madding-crowds as is humanly possible. Why head away from the crowds ? Well that’s exactly what the big fish do, and thats exactly what we are out there to see on this Warm Water Rush trip.

We depart the UK, escorted by one of our most experienced Scuba + Outdoor Southern Red Sea Group Leaders, straight into the heart of the Red Sea Coastline at Marsa Alam, before a quick transfer to our vessel of exploration – Grand Sea Serpent. As one of the most luxurious and popular Red Sea liveaboards operating in the South, we are assured absolute comfort, space and enjoyment onboard at all times, whilst our hyper-experienced dive guides ensure the underwater-experience is a perfect match.

25TH MAY TO 1ST JUNE 2011 GATWICK TO MARSA ALAM APPROX 18 GUIDED DIVES ONLY £1295pp !!!

Our dive itinerary for the week takes in the some of the best dives sites that the Southern Red Sea has to offer, and, from experience, the sites we are most likely to encounter the Big Stuff. The itinerary for the trip sees us take in the dive sites of Marsa Alam; Daedalus; Rocky Island; Zabagad Island; Wadi Gamal and Fury Shoal. These sites have a reputation of excellence in themselves, and with the most famous dive sites such as Anemone City, The Daedalus North and South Plateaus; and the West and East Wall Drifts at Rocky Island included, we are sure of an amazing adventure.

The sites themselves are, of course, only a part of the Shark Safari story it’s the wildlife that completes it. On our previous Shark Safari trips these sites have always guaranteed us big-fish encounters with Oceanic White Tip Sharks; Thresher Sharks and even Hammerhead Sharks, whilst also letting us enjoy some of the most pristine Hard and Soft Coral Diving in the Red Sea. The usual suspects of Anemone Fish (Clown Fish); Grouper; Napoleon Wrasse; Eels; Sweetlips; Batfish; Lion Fish; Dolphins and Turtles really are just a given on a trip of this nature too. In total you will be completing 18 – 20 of the best possible Southern Red Sea dives on this trip, all of which will be as exciting and adventurous as the next.

Our Grand Sea Serpent host for the week is a a huge 41m liveaboard, with 12 en suite guest cabins, all with Air Conditioning and Mini-Bar; two off-board tenders to get you close into the reef during dive-drops; on-board Nitrox blending system providing Free Nitrox for all qualified divers; spacious salon; sun decks to catch some post-dive rays and, best of all, two super-experienced Red Sea dive guides and a super friendly crew.
