About This Trip
Begin your day with a comfortable pickup from your hotel and transfer to the marina, where your boat and dive team are waiting. Sail out to the Straits of Tiran, home to well-known dive sites. Gordon Reef, Jackson Reef and Laguna Reef are known for dramatic coral walls. Your dive guide leads two dives at two different sites in the Straits of Tiran, matched to your certification level. Full dive gear — BCD, regulator, wetsuit, fins, mask and weights — is available to rent as an optional add-on if you don't have your own. Between dives, relax on the sun deck and enjoy a freshly prepared buffet lunch on board before the boat returns to the marina and your transport takes you back to your hotel. Feeling up for more? A third dive can be added on the day, paid directly to the crew or settled back at your hotel.
