Red Sea Aggressor IV
This is a new and very nice boat sailing in the Red Sea southern itinerary. There are 5 different levels to the boat and lots of space for all the guests to spread out. Most of the diving is done from zodiacs, but some times from the mothership. There is no camera room, but there are 2 camera tables on the dive deck and cubbies holes for the photographers to store all their electronics. There lots of electrical outlets all over the boat for charging electronics, and there is plenty of space in the lounge area, dining area or bar area to set up camera systems.
The cruise director and crew are excellent. They are very experienced and professional. The menu changes daily and the food is tasty. Divers with dietary restrictions will have no problems on the boat.
Nice warm towels are draped over your shoulders once your BCD is off your back. What a treat! The crew on the dive deck are really helpful with getting your gear on and off. Air and Nitrox fills are good and consistent. There are also robes in each cabin which is nice to put on in between dives.
We also have the flexibility to dive with the divemaster or buddy up and go do our own dives. The dive briefings are very detailed so it gave us a lot of confidence to separate from the group and go off on our own to explore. For divers who prefer to dive with the divemaster, the groups are smaller because some divers would rather plan and do their own dive. Everyone wins!
Overall great boat, excellent service and highly recommend.
