MY Amelie is a traditional wooden yacht built in the shipyards of Alexandria Egypt; a platform for the restless modern-day adventurers who want to get a glimpse of the underwater beauty of Red Sea.

The Amelie's trips were scheduled in a way that the dive sites can be dived at the ideal time. When building this liveaboard the goal was to build something unique, not only in design, but also in service.

The Amelie is 75 feet (23m) long and 20 feet (6m) wide;  was crafted in 1995 and underwent a total overhaul in  2019.  Attention has been given to every little detail of the Amelie to ensure that your dream dive holiday becomes reality. The Amelie mission is to make the guest forget that he is on a boat, by offering the best there is in diving and spare-time activities.

Amelie can accommodate 12 guests in 6 comfortable cabins located on the lower deck , each with twin bunk-beds, storage space, charging area and port-hole windows. There are also 2 shared bathrooms with freshwater showers.    On the main deck is featured the indoor saloon with the dining area, drinks station and comfortable sofas; for the sun seeker are available many areas of the boat among which there is the top deck whit comfy mattresses to lounge on .

Food as one of the basic human needs plays a crucial role in any dive holiday because it provides both sustenance, strength and pleasure. Therefore the designers of the trips paid special attention to the food offering. Divers created the menu because they know which food will provide strength and energy during a dive safari. Rather than the typical liveaboard food, you will be able to choose from a buffet or its fine cuisine. Furthermore they are also serving snacks all day.
