About this itinerary

The Strait of Tiran and North liveaboard itinerary offers divers some of the most iconic wrecks and reefs the northern Red Sea has to offer. Diving areas include the SS Thistlegorm wreck, and Ras Mohammed Mational Park, and the healthy coral reefs of Tiran. Located at the entrance to the Gulf of Aqaba, the Tiran diving area comprises four main reefs that form the top of an underwater bridge. These reefs, named after British cartographers (Jackson, Woodhouse, Thomas, Gordon), are world famous for their extraordinary diversity of corals and strong south westerly currents which make them home to many large pelagics.
