There are 3 routes to choose from.

The upper deck has a large and partially shaded social area with lounge-style seating, chaise lounges, hot tub, bar and music system. The large air-conditioned saloon features a comfortable lounge area to watch TV or socialise with fellow passengers, and the dining area. The dive deck includes diver equipment storage, warm freshwater showers, water exit ladders, a membrane nitrox system, rinse tanks and a camera table with low pressure air hoses. Up to 4 dives per day are made in Sudan from the 2 large tenders.

There is a varied weekly menu featuring Western style breakfast, and international and Arabic lunches and dinners. These include soups, salads, entrees of seafood, fish, beef or chicken, fresh bread, vegetables, and a selection of sweets. Complimentary local beer and wine are served each evening with dinner. As is the norm on Aggressor cruises, the final night is spent in the port and dinner is taken at a recommended local restaurant.

So if you ever wanted to discover the thrilling diving destination of Sudan, but on the high quality liveaboard yacht of a trusted name in the scuba industry, the Arabian Aggressor could be your answer.
