Operator knows the Red Sea
Talked to dive guides on other boats at shared moorings, our crew knew more dive sites and local conditions than anyone. You can feel the experience. Dana, Switzerland

What divers say about Safy Mar
Thresher sharks delivered
I came specifically for threshers at Daedalus and got two sightings in three days. The dive planning around tides was impressive. Cabin A/C worked the whole week which in my experience is not a given. Noah, Sweden

Came for sharks, stayed for the reefs
Booked for shark sightings and got plenty. What surprised me was how good the reef diving was between shark dives. The boat really does offer the full Red Sea experience. Magnus, Jordan

Photographers paradise
As an underwater photographer, the camera rinse tanks and charging stations made the week effortless. Guides understood what I wanted to shoot and slowed down on cue. Hanna, Finland

Best Red Sea trip of my life
Dive briefings were on point, the guides knew exactly where the sharks would show up. Boat was spotless and the crew kept spoiling us with fresh fruit between dives. Cannot wait to book again. Nadia, France

Family of four, all happy
Two teenage divers, two adults. Crew tailored the groups so the kids had their own guide. They got to see sharks on their first liveaboard and are now obsessed. Yusuf, Hungary
