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.

Over the next 12 months, specialist scuba holiday company Dive Worldwide will be supporting Bite-Back Shark & Marine Conservation with donations collected from client bookings to any one of its stunning dive destinations around the world. The independently-owned operator expects to raise £3000 for the UK charity.
Manager at Dive Worldwide, Phil North, said: “We’re especially excited to work with Bite-Back and support its intelligent, creative and results-driven campaigns to end the UK trade in shark products and prompt a change in attitudes to the ocean’s most maligned inhabitant.”
Bite-Back is running campaigns to hold the media to account on the way it reports shark news along with a brand new nationwide education programme. Last year the charity was credited for spearheading a UK ban on the import and export of shark fins.
Campaign director at Bite-Back, Graham Buckingham, said: “We’re enormously grateful to Dive Worldwide for choosing to support Bite-Back. The company’s commitment to conservation helps set it apart from other tour operators and we’re certain its clients admire and respect that policy. For us, the affiliation is huge and helps us look to the future with confidence we can deliver against key conservation programmes.”
To launch the fundraising initiative, Phil North presented Graham Buckingham with a cheque for £1,000.
