A Diving Trip in One of the Most Exotic and Least Explored Destinations
The Red Sea gives you exclusive access to marine ecosystems packed with life. If you enjoy seeing large pelagic species on your dive trips, the Red Sea Shark Route aboard a liveaboard is the kind of trip you remember.
The Scuba Scene is a luxury liveaboard designed to give divers comfort and a well-organised setup while exploring the Red Sea. With capacity for up to 26 guests spread across five levels, the boat has several areas to relax, including a swimming pool, multiple decks with sun and shade, a jacuzzi, and a wide dining room. Every cabin is designed with sea views and private bathrooms. The Scuba Scene is the right base for combining diving with the level of comfort you want after a long day in the water.
Cabin Types
Lower floor cabins with ocean views (Cabins #1-6)
Upper floor cabins with ocean views (Cabins #9-14)
Double Bed Cabins (Cabins #7 and #8):
These cabins are slightly more compact, with a double bed (1.3m x 2m) and a single bed (0.9m x 2m), a private bathroom, and air conditioning. Smaller in footprint, but with the same level of comfort and functionality as the rest. A good option for divers sharing a cabin who still want a bit of privacy and quality rest after each day of diving.
Our room
During our visit we stayed in an upper-deck cabin. Every detail felt well thought-out, the window views were striking, and the hot shower after a long day in the water was very welcome. When we wanted to be outside, we had the pool, the jacuzzi or the upper deck to choose from. The combination of cabin comfort and on-board spaces made the days flow easily.
Is diving in the Red Sea worth it?
To be honest, after diving in many of the world’s top sites we expected the Red Sea to be a smaller discovery. We were wrong. It is well worth the trip. The biodiversity is genuinely strong, the climate lets you dive almost year-round, and the variety of dive sites covers everything from wrecks to drift dives with pelagic species. The Red Sea earned its reputation honestly.
Introduction to the Southern Route Compared to the Northern Route
While the North Route of the Red Sea is famous for its iconic shipwrecks, such as the SS Thistlegorm and Abu Nuhas, the Southern Route stands out for its pristine marine life and the chance to see pelagic species like hammerhead sharks and oceanic whitetip sharks.
The Southern Route is less crowded and includes some of the most remote dive sites, such as the reefs of Brothers, Daedalus and Elphinstone, where divers can enjoy unique underwater landscapes and abundant marine life.
This Red Sea Shark Route on a liveaboard is the one we did, and we definitely recommend it.
The itinerary, Southern Red Sea Route: Daedalus, Elphinstone and Brothers Islands
Daedalus Reef: Hammerheads and Coral Sharks
Daedalus Reef is a stunning, isolated reef famous for its wild environment. During our dive, we explored its vertical walls filled with hard and soft corals in excellent condition. The currents here attract pelagic species, and one of the most exciting moments was the encounter with hammerhead sharks, swimming in groups along the reef. Visibility was excellent, which let us see everything in detail and made every minute underwater feel valuable.
Elphinstone Reef: Adrenaline and Oceanic Sharks
Elphinstone Reef is a long, narrow reef that attracts divers because of its coral walls and strong currents. Here we swam among coral fans and crossed paths with oceanic whitetip sharks. Although the currents can be challenging, the chance to see these sharks in action makes the effort more than worth it. This is one of those dives that stays in your logbook for the right reasons.
Brothers Islands: Intensity and Wildlife
The Brothers Islands, Big Brother and Little Brother, offer some of the most demanding and rewarding diving in the Red Sea. Surrounded by vibrant coral walls, these islands combine strong currents, large predators and a great variety of marine life. We dived alongside grey reef sharks, thresher sharks and the occasional oceanic whitetip. The mix of intensity and abundance makes this stop one of the highlights of the Southern Route.

Comfortable and well-equipped spaces for divers
From the first day, we were impressed by how well the All Star Scuba Scene adapts to the needs of divers. The diving area has outdoor showers, fresh-water hoses and plenty of space for cameras. Between dives, it was very convenient to rinse off the gear and relax knowing that everything was looked after by the crew.
Cabins with Ocean View and Maximum Comfort
The cabins are not only comfortable, they also offer sea views and individual air conditioning. After every dive, it was a real treat to relax and watch the horizon from our cabin. The cabin layout balances comfort and privacy in exactly the right way for a week-long trip.
Relaxation Areas and Sundecks
The upper sundeck is the right place to unwind and enjoy the Red Sea views. Between dives, we used to relax in the comfortable chairs or in the jacuzzi, with the breeze and a drink from the bar nearby. Comfort right where you need it after each immersion.
An Experience Worth Having
Every dive in the Red Sea was a small adventure. As with our Saudi Arabia expedition, it did not disappoint.
One moment we will remember was the dive at Daedalus Reef. Floating in front of that massive coral wall that drops into the blue, surrounded by schools of fish and with a group of hammerhead sharks passing in the distance, was one of those scenes you stop trying to photograph and just watch.
At Elphinstone, the encounter with the oceanic whitetip shark was equally memorable. The current pushed us along the reef, and there it was, calm and curious, swimming alongside the group.
The Brothers Islands added the intensity layer. Stronger currents, larger predators, and walls full of life. Grey reef sharks moving in groups, thresher sharks gliding in the deeper water, and the occasional surprise from below.
Throughout the trip the Scuba Scene crew kept everything running smoothly. The dive briefings were clear, the boat moved at the right pace between sites, the food was excellent and there was always something useful waiting after each dive: hot tea, fruit, towels, fresh water.
If you are looking for a serious diving trip in the Red Sea, the Southern Route on the Scuba Scene is a strong recommendation. Pelagic encounters, healthy reefs and a level of comfort onboard that matches the trip.
