The Sea Fox Liveaboard Red Sea is a 45-meter steel safari yacht built in 2023 for up to 36 guests in 18 en-suite cabins, while five decks carry the salon, the restaurant and a sun deck with a Jacuzzi and a sauna. Moreover, she runs both diving safaris and dedicated kitesurfing weeks out of Hurghada.
First of all, M/Y Sea Fox was launched in 2023, so she belongs to the newest generation of Egyptian safari boats. Furthermore, her 45-meter steel hull was built for long crossings to the offshore islands.
Because the layout is generous, guests have room to kit up, eat and rest without crowding each other. Consequently, the boat still feels personal even with a full guest list.
Eighteen private cabins accommodate up to 36 guests. In addition, every cabin has air conditioning, an en-suite bathroom, a hot shower and practical storage.
Meanwhile, the dive deck, two Zodiac tenders and high-capacity compressors keep the daily program running. As a result, the crew turns dives around quickly and without long waits.
Besides diving, the Sea Fox Liveaboard also runs dedicated Red Sea kitesurfing safaris. Therefore the same vessel suits dive clubs, kite groups and mixed private charters.
Above all, she works for divers who want serious offshore itineraries with real comfort on board. For this reason she is also a strong choice for full-boat charters. In short, the Sea Fox Liveaboard is a large boat that still feels personal.
18 private en-suite cabins — moreover, each has individually controlled air conditioning, hot shower, storage and charging points.
Two VIP master suites — namely cabins 17 and 18 on the upper deck, the largest accommodation on board.
Sauna and massage studio — in addition, both sit on the sun deck, alongside the Jacuzzi and the sunbathing area.
Separate restaurant and salon — therefore meals never interrupt briefings, reading or camera work.
Professional dive deck — namely tank stations, rinse tanks, a camera area, Nitrox and two Zodiacs.
Diving and kitesurfing — besides diving, the same boat runs dive safaris and dedicated kite weeks.

M/Y Sea Fox is a 45-meter steel Red Sea diving liveaboard built in 2023, with five decks and 18 private en-suite cabins for up to 36 guests. In addition, she carries two Zodiac dive tenders, 52 cylinders, two standard compressors, a separate Nitrox compressor, a sun-deck Jacuzzi, a sauna and a massage studio, and she sails Egyptian safaris from Hurghada. Red Sea Diving, a Hurghada-based operator working in the Egyptian Red Sea since 2000, runs the vessel. Finally, prices start from €1,600 per person for a seven-night safari, while marine park and port fees are charged separately.
Because quality rest matters as much as the diving, every cabin is a private, climate-controlled space with its own bathroom and hot shower. However, cabin allocation always depends on the plan for your selected departure.
Firstly, cabins 17 and 18 sit on the upper deck and offer the largest floor space on board. Moreover, each suite has a large bed, wide sea views and an upgraded en-suite bathroom.
Meanwhile, cabins 1, 2, 5 and 6 are suite-style cabins for couples and guests who want extra space. In addition, they keep a full en-suite bathroom and generous storage.
Besides those, twelve twin cabins carry two separate beds for dive partners, friends and solo travelers sharing. Furthermore, they hold two full sets of dive equipment comfortably.
Naturally, cabin configuration and availability vary between departures. Therefore you should confirm your preferred cabin type before booking rather than on arrival. Meanwhile, our team can also hold a specific cabin while you decide. Besides that, we confirm the final allocation in writing.
The 18 cabins sit across four decks, while the sun deck stays free for the Jacuzzi, the sauna, the massage studio and the sunbathing area. Meanwhile, the indoor restaurant is on the lower deck and the lounge sits on the high deck.
| Deck | Cabins | Number | Category and facilities | Price per person |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sun deck | — | — | Jacuzzi, sauna, massage studio and sunbathing area | — |
| Upper deck | 17–18 | 2 | VIP master suites | €1,880 |
| High deck | 13–16 | 4 | Twin cabins and lounge | On request |
| Main deck | 5–6 | 2 | Suites | €1,800 |
| Main deck | 7–12 | 6 | Sea-view twin cabins | €1,700 |
| Lower deck | 1–2 | 2 | Suites | €1,800 |
| Lower deck | 3–4 | 2 | Twin cabins | €1,600 |
| Lower deck | — | — | Indoor restaurant | — |
| Total | 1–18 | 18 | 4 suites, 12 twin cabins and 2 VIP master suites | — |
Of course, every cabin includes air conditioning, a private en-suite bathroom, personal storage and towels. Additionally, the crew services the cabins daily throughout the week.
Naturally, prices are per person, based on shared occupancy for seven nights on board. However, single occupancy, charters and group rates are always quoted individually.
| Category | Cabin numbers | Deck | Price per person |
|---|---|---|---|
| VIP master suite | 17 and 18 | Upper deck | €1,880 |
| Suite | 1, 2, 5 and 6 | Lower and main deck | €1,800 |
| Sea-view twin | 7–12 | Main deck | €1,700 |
| Twin cabin | 3 and 4 | Lower deck | €1,600 |
| Twin cabin | 13–16 | High deck | On request |
Cabins 3 and 4 give you the lowest price on board while keeping a private bathroom. Meanwhile, cabins 7 to 12 add a sea view in a quieter main-deck position.
The two VIP master suites are the obvious choice for couples, because they combine the largest layout with the best views on the boat. In contrast, dive partners usually prefer a twin cabin. Besides that, full-boat charters are quoted as a single package rather than per cabin.
Naturally, the vessel works as a floating resort between dives. Therefore each indoor and outdoor area is planned so that your surface intervals genuinely support the next dive.
Firstly, the onboard chef prepares three fresh meals a day around the dive schedule. Moreover, the menu mixes Egyptian and international dishes, with snacks between dives.
Meanwhile, the air-conditioned salon hosts briefings, dive-footage reviews and marine-life talks. In addition, it doubles as the quiet place to sit out a windy afternoon.
Similarly, loungers and shaded seating sit side by side on the upper sun deck. Consequently, you can follow the sun or escape it without moving far.
Finally, the sun deck carries a Jacuzzi, a sauna and a massage studio. As a result, tired muscles recover while the sun drops behind the coast.
Naturally, underwater photographers get a dry workspace with charging points and a dedicated camera area. Furthermore, camera rinse water stays separate from general dive gear, so housings and ports stay safe. In addition, the salon works well for editing between dives.
Firstly, every diver receives a numbered station for the whole week, with a cylinder position and storage for personal equipment. Therefore the deck stays clear even when 36 divers are kitting up.
Secondly, two Zodiacs carry divers to entry points, collect them after surfacing and reach reefs the main vessel cannot safely approach. Meanwhile, the crew handles cylinders and heavy gear during transfers.
Of course, Nitrox is available on request for appropriately certified divers. However, you must analyze your own cylinder, set your computer correctly and sign the Nitrox log before diving.
Finally, the dive team gives a route briefing, site information and buddy-group organization before every dive. Nevertheless, group sizes and guide ratios still depend on the route, the guests and current regulations. Therefore we set the groups on the first day, after the check dive.
Notably, she can operate all eight of Egypt’s best-known itineraries. However, the exact route and dive-site order always depend on the departure port, weather, currents, guest experience and official permissions.
Notably, wreck diving at Abu Nuhas pairs with coral walls at Careless Reef and sheltered lagoons full of reef fish.
See the North route
In particular, the northern wrecks combine with the Sinai coast and the dive sites around Dahab.
See North & Dahab
Similarly, this week blends northern wrecks with the offshore walls of the Brothers Islands.
See North & Brothers
Namely, Brothers, Daedalus and Elphinstone in one offshore week for experienced divers.
See the BDE route
Meanwhile, remote Daedalus Reef pairs with the sheltered coral gardens of Fury Shoals.
See Daedalus & Fury Shoals
In addition, untouched reefs, caves, tunnels and coral gardens sit close to the Sudanese border.
See Deep South
Above all, this is an expedition week for divers who want rarely visited southern reef systems.
See the Elba route
Finally, a calm southern lagoon known for spinner dolphins, and therefore a strong choice for snorkelers.
See the Sataya routeExtended southern programs may also reach Rocky Island and Zabargad, while the Elba route additionally requires special permits. Nevertheless, access there always depends on official permission, weather and the approved sailing plan. Therefore we always confirm the final route in your booking documents. Our Red Sea liveaboard guide explains how the routes compare, while redsealiveaboard.net covers the wider Egyptian fleet.
Besides diving, M/Y Sea Fox is also available for dedicated Red Sea kitesurfing safaris from Hurghada. Moreover, the liveaboard travels between remote islands, shallow lagoons and flat-water kite spots that are difficult to reach from land.
Consequently, guests can enjoy several kite sessions a day whenever wind and weather allow, supported by experienced staff and a Zodiac safety boat. In addition, kite safaris suit beginners, experienced riders, organized groups and private charters.
However, kite locations and session times depend completely on wind, weather and local maritime permission. Therefore the final program is confirmed on board rather than in advance. Nevertheless, the season and the usual wind pattern are easy to plan around.
In general, a standard safari runs for seven nights with six activity days. Nevertheless, the final program depends on the selected diving or kitesurfing itinerary, the weather and maritime permissions.
| Day | Typical programme |
|---|---|
| Saturday | Boarding after 15:00, cabin allocation and safety briefing |
| Sunday | Check dive, followed by two or three further dives |
| Monday to Thursday | Three to four dives daily, depending on the route |
| Friday | Two final dives, then the return passage toward the marina |
| Saturday | Breakfast and check-out, normally between 09:00 and 10:00 |
Above all, this table is a general example rather than a fixed schedule. Therefore the captain and dive guides may change sites or timings for safety, weather or operational reasons.
Meanwhile, the kitchen prepares fresh buffets that mix Egyptian and international dishes, and snacks appear between dives. Additionally, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and allergy-related requests can usually be supported with advance notice.
Please send dietary details before boarding rather than on arrival. After all, the vessel may spend several days far from ports and shops. Consequently, late requests are much harder to cover.
Above all, your safety is the highest priority on every Sea Fox Liveaboard departure. For this reason the 2023-built steel hull is backed by professional operation, regular maintenance and a full inventory of safety equipment.
Firstly, the captain and engineering team regularly inspect the engines, generators, electrical systems and compressors. Moreover, the vessel undergoes scheduled servicing and the inspections required by the relevant Egyptian authorities.
In addition, she carries GPS, radar, a depth sounder, AIS and VHF marine radio. Consequently, the captain can monitor the route, the weather and sea conditions throughout the journey.
Naturally, every trip begins with a complete boat and emergency briefing. Furthermore, before each dive the guides explain the site, the currents, entry and exit procedures, maximum depth and the emergency plan.
Divers must present valid certification and diving insurance. In addition, Nitrox users must personally analyze their cylinder, set their computer correctly and sign the Nitrox log.
Our captain, crew and dive guides have long experience navigating and diving in the Red Sea. Therefore they review emergency, rescue, fire and evacuation procedures regularly.
However, the captain may change the itinerary, delay sailing or cancel a dive whenever weather or sea conditions are unsafe. After all, no dive site is more important than the safety of guests and crew. Consequently, we would rather change the plan than push a marginal dive.
M/Y Sea Fox is insured against marine accidents. However, every guest must also carry personal travel and diving insurance covering medical treatment, hyperbaric treatment, emergency evacuation and repatriation.
Finally, you can read more about how we work on our diving safety page.
Naturally, every guest must bring a valid certification, a logbook or proof of experience, valid diving insurance, a completed medical questionnaire and emergency contact details. Additionally, advanced routes ask for more.
Of course, certifications from bodies such as PADI and BSAC are accepted. However, the exact minimum qualification and logged-dive count must be confirmed for your selected departure.
Moreover, you can tap any photo to open it full size.
In short, she suits certified divers, underwater photographers, wreck enthusiasts, kitesurfers, dive centers and private charter groups. Moreover, her cabin mix makes her one of the easier boats to fill as a club charter.
Naturally, the North route suits a wider range of certified divers. In contrast, offshore itineraries such as Brothers, Daedalus, Elphinstone and Elba are intended for divers comfortable with currents, deep walls and open-water entries. Therefore the Sea Fox Liveaboard team always checks your logged dives before confirming those weeks.
Of course, we operate several vessels on the same Egyptian routes. Therefore the right choice usually comes down to size, cabin layout and the atmosphere you prefer on board.
