Djibouti / Lucy liveaboard / 11th – 20th November 2016 / Only £2295
6 nights on board luxury liveaboard Lucy on a full board basis in a lower deck cabin. 16 dives offered over the week plus several whaleshark snorkelling sessions. Includes 12ltr tanks, weights and airfills are included.
Djibouti is certainly off the beaten track for most travellers but if you are a scuba diver on the look out for a liveaboard holiday with a difference, Djibouti has to be on your holiday wish list.
Effectively closing the Red Sea, Djibouti has become a stop off point for divers on the hunt for the largest shark on this planet – whalesharks. This is one of a handful of global diving destinations that can virtually guarantee whaleshark encounters between November to January each year. And we don’t just mean a fleeting glance on a reef. A Djibouti liveaboard will get you in the water with scores of whalesharks day after day after day.
