blue o two’s Red Sea fleet gets a makeover
UK-based diving tour operator blue o two have upgraded their Red Sea fleet.
M/Y blue Fin, M/Y blue Horizon, M/Y blue Melody and M/Y Red Sea Adventurer have had a team of over 100 people working hard on each vessel over the last few months, updating both the interior and exterior of each boat.
Guests on board any one of the Red Sea fleet can spend their evenings in redecorated cabins with new fixtures and fittings, carpets and colour schemes.
The inside saloon of M/Y blue Fin in particular has been spoilt with up-to-date blinds and carpets, as well as new food and drink facilities to ensure ease for all guests making use of the saloon area at different times of the day in between dives.
Leaving the tranquil experience of the underwater world to the crystal blue surface above and on deck, a sky lounge sun deck has been created onboard M/Y blue Melody for the perfect place to relax and unwind after a day full of diving, providing a serene infinity view of the sea from mid deck surrounded by open space and brand new teak furniture.
Not only has M/Y blue Melody been fitted with a sky lounge sun deck, but the sun deck on board M/Y blue Horizon is now new and improved, extended by 1.5 metres, enhancing the infinity view of the sea from mid deck with a brand new Jacuzzi. Guests can bubble their evenings away taking advantage of the peaceful view whilst sharing their experiences from their day of diving.
Continuing the effortless layout of the vessels, bar areas in both the main saloon and on the sun deck of M/Y Red Sea Adventurer have been completely redesigned to create an open and comfortable space. M/Y Red Sea Adventurer has also received a complete new paint scheme, whilst the outside of the rest of the Red Sea fleet have been given a fresh lick of paint for an extra sleek look.
Built by divers, for divers, these incredible vessels allow guests to experience a variety of the top dive sites in the Red Sea. Basking in spectacular scenery and gliding above the rich and diverse ecosystem, the Red Sea is unique with a marine paradise that offers some of the most spectacular diving in the world.
blue o two provides a selection of itineraries to choose from ensuring everything that the Red Sea offers is included in an exciting trip for all. From the famous Northern Wrecks & Reefs to Daedalus & St Johns in the South, divers will witness the wonders of nature and experience a trip of a lifetime.
