This was my first liveaboard, and it was outstanding!!! I cannot say enough about every member of the crew and how they took care of us. I cannot wait to join them again for my next adventure.

I recently spent a week on the Blue Melody liveaboard and it was an unforgettable experience for me. The crew was incredibly friendly always helpful and professional.  They all created a warm and welcoming atmosphere on board. The food was absolutely delicious: Fresh, varied and plentiful. I did not expect this. The boat itself was well-equipped and comfortable, with everything you need for a relaxing and successful dive trip.  Overall, great diving, great service, and great people, what more could you ask for?

Great liveaboard, the boat is very nice and clean! The crew is always available and smiling, a big special thank you to Jamal and Karmal who took care to make us happy on board and to Mustafa and Mahmoud for their good food. The dives are great and the dive masters very professional, the equipment was suitable and in good condition.

Really wonderfull trip with super-nice divers from england, denmark, brasil, france and germany. Guides and instructors gave us the highlights with Salem Express, Brothers (Aida + Numidia), Abu Nahas (Giannis D!) and of course the full thristlegorm with 4 dives (one night dive). Thank you to the whole team.
