Our take on Independence III

  • No Divebooker guest reviews yet: a newer or less-booked boat, so ask the operator for recent guest feedback.
  • From $160 per day it costs about 14% more than the typical boat on the same routes ($140).
  • Nitrox is free on board, while many boats charge extra for it.
  • About 10–12 divers per guide, as listed by Divebooker.
  • A mid-sized boat for 24 guests in 12 cabins, the most common size in Egypt.
  • Built in 2022, one of the newer boats in the Red Sea fleet.
  • 15 upcoming departures are guaranteed to run.

Who it suits: Sails both beginner-friendly northern routes and the marine parks, so check each departure's route before booking.
