Hi,

I live in the UK and I've heard lots of good things about red sea
liveaboards but, alas, cannot remember any of the names of operators,
boats or places given to me by fellow divers while chatting at the
bar.

I'd be interested to hear your recommendations and/or places/operators
to avoid.

It might be worth noting I'm fairly new to this. I have about 40-50
dives under my belt. Mainly in the Andamans and Sipadan.

thanks

PS. AC is absolutely essential!

Some live aboards have suspended operation because of the shakey
political conditions in the middle east. If she is still running the
M/Y Oyster (operated by Oyster Diving) meets your requirements. I was
on her a few years ago and found it 5 star. Diving in Red Sea very
easy and conditions are usually good. Don't be shocked though to get
to a dive site and see 10 other boats rafted up. Best dive on a
liveaboard is the first dive of the day before the shore boats arrive.
