About Alia Soul
Sail the Red Sea aboard Alia Soul, a 36m (118ft) liveaboard custom built for diving. Built in 2014, she carries just 20 guests across 10 cabins, with a nearly 1:1 crew-to-guest ratio, en-suite bathrooms, air-conditioned seaview cabins, and an air-conditioned indoor saloon for easy downtime between dives.
Diving the northern and southern Red Sea
Itineraries reach the region's most celebrated waters, from The Brothers, Ras Mohammed and the Straits of Tiran to Fury Shoal, St. John's and Abu Dabab. The eight-night Safaga/Soma Bay route offers approximately 18 dives, taking in the dramatic walls of the Brother's Islands and the reefs of Daedalus and Elphinstone, where divers often spot oceanic whitetips, thresher sharks, large tuna and schools of colourful fish.
On board, spacious dive decks, a shaded diving area, tenders for diving and rinse hoses keep the diving smooth, with free Nitrox, DIN adaptors, sidemount, tech and rebreather support for every level. A sun deck, bar, charging stations and daily housekeeping round out the comfort. Advanced Open Water with 50 logged dives is required.
