Some details of the trip, we fly from Gatwick to Hurghada and with just a 10 minute transfer we board the boat. We set off on the route named as Simply The Best, this means that we avoid all the day boats and keep to the outer dive sites. We will be treated to a talk everyday from the resident shark expert Elke on how to react with the sharks about and the way they are being killed for shark fining and the like. We have previously been treated to close up and exciting encounters with Oceanic White Tip, Silky, Hammerhead and Thresher sharks. The crew are excellent always willing to help and the food is always plentiful and of a good standard. The cost of the trip is £1249 each. This includes all your diving, food, soft drinks, transfers and flights. It does not cover alcohol. There are 26 places on the boat, as a booking agent for Blue O2, if I book 10 people on I receive 1 free place, 20 people 2 free places. These places I will put back in to reduce the cost of the trip which will bring it down to about £1150. A deposit of £313 is required on booking.
You will need to be a PADI Advanced Diver or equivalent with 50 logged dives, but as any of those who went this year the diving is not too difficult and the guides on the boat are always ready to join you should you need their assistance.
