Although Red Sea shore and day boat diving is well covered already, there is an added dimension to livaboard or safari diving in this area. Some dive sites can be visited which otherwise could not, and the timing of dives can be more flexible. Many operators run either a Northern or Southern Red Sea safari. The main difference is that the boat can anchor on or very near a dive site, so that you can be the first to dive it at 0700 the following day. This avoids the jacuzzi effect on certain Red Sea sites. For example I dived on the Thistlegorm three times over christmas 2006 and did not see any divers other than our party of 14.
