Overview:

M/Y Alsuraya is a 37-metre steel motor yacht operating in the Egyptian Red Sea. Built in 2024 and flagged in Egypt, this vessel combines a stable mono-hull design with multiple outdoor and indoor spaces for guests seeking a structured dive cruise or leisure-focused itinerary. With a capacity of 24 guests and 13 crew members, the MV Alsuraya liveaboard Egypt is tailored to groups interested in exploring Egypt’s abundant dive sites across both northern and southern regions. From wreck routes to deep southern reef systems, the vessel is equipped to offer consistent sailing at speeds of up to 16 knots.

The main salon and dining area are designed for comfort during downtime. Meals are served in a shared, air-conditioned space, while guests also have access to seating areas on the upper and sun decks. The bar on the upper deck and lounge seating provide spaces to unwind after diving or during surface intervals. The layout includes both shaded and sunny zones furnished with sunbeds.

The dive platform is located on the main deck, with direct access from the saloon. It is very spacious and includes both a dedicated camera station and a power charging station for all guests. Twin Bauer K150 compressors (450 l/min each) and a Nitrox system (NRC 1000 l/min) support daily diving operations. The dive deck accommodates equipment preparation and rinsing between dives.

Safety systems on the Alsuraya liveaboard Egypt include two life rafts (each with a capacity of 25), fire extinguishers, fire alarms, and foam-based suppression systems in the kitchen and engine room. Emergency evacuation plans are posted on the dive deck, and emergency hatches are in place throughout the vessel. Marine safety tools include rescue boats, flares, signal devices, and rescue ropes. First aid kits and oxygen bottles are available onboard, and the captain and at least one crew member are MFA-certified and trained in emergency response.
