Emperor Divers
Amazing diving holidays in Egypt, Maldives, Indonesia and the Solomon Islands
Divers choose Emperor because…
Since 1992, Emperor Divers has been sharing the magic of the Red Sea, Maldives, Indonesia and Solomon Islands with divers from all over the world. In that time, we’ve welcomed thousands of guests – many of whom return to us year after year – drawn back by unforgettable experiences and friendly faces.
Our focus is simple: to deliver safe, sustainable and seriously memorable diving for everyone. With world-class liveaboards, excellent resort diving and a full range of PADI courses, we’re here to help you explore the ocean your way. We have trips that showcase the very best our regions have to offer, led by teams who live and breathe the destinations they dive.
I had the absolute best diving vacation of my life aboard the Best of Raja Ampat trip on Emperor Harmoni. Everything about this liveaboard was next-level. This trip exceeded every expectation I had. Truly a 5-star experience and the best diving trip I’ve ever been on. Highly, highly recommended! (Thomas Davis, November 2025)
We thank every diver and student who’s joined us over the years. We’re proud so many of you return as true ‘Friends of Emperor’. And if you’ve not yet dived with us, we’d love to welcome you aboard and share the knowledge, passion and warm hospitality that have shaped our story for more than three decades.
Nubi, Takki und der Rest der Crew – danke für die tollen 3 Tage!! 🙂
Wir haben einen Tauch- und Schnorchelausflug gemacht und ich kann nur Positives berichten. Die Crew ist einfach toll, nett, lustig und unglaublich flexibel. Kein Wunsch bleibt offen, alles fühlt sich entspannt und unkompliziert an.
Das Essen hat uns wirklich überrascht, frisch zubereitet und so lecker, das hätten wir auf einem Tauchboot nie erwartet!
Taki und Sad als Tauchguides sind genau das was man sich wünscht, professionell, sicher und dabei richtig witzig. Man fühlt sich von Anfang an gut aufgehoben.
Mustafa als Schnorchelguide ist einfach ein Erlebnis für sich. Es fühlt sich an als würde man mit einem guten Freund schnorcheln gehen. Er hat ein unglaubliches Auge für Details und zeigt einem Dinge die man alleine nie entdecken würde, zum Beispiel haben wir einen Skorpionfisch gesehen den ohne ihn garantiert niemand gefunden hätte.
Die Riffe sind wunderschön, die Aussicht traumhaft und man fühlt sich einfach wohl. Absolute Empfehlung, wir kommen wieder! 🐠🤿
Nach dem ersten Tauchgang wurden wir an Bord mit einem leckeren Mittagessen verwöhnt. Anschließend fuhren wir weiter zum zweiten Spot, wo uns eine beeindruckende große Korallenwand erwartete. Dort konnten wir die faszinierende Unterwasserwelt des Roten Meeres beim Tauchen erkunden.
Besonders hervorzuheben sind die Crew und die Dive Guides Taki, Sad und Mustafa, die während des gesamten Ausflugs sehr nett, aufmerksam und hilfsbereit waren. Sie sorgten dafür, dass sich alle Teilnehmer wohl und sicher fühlten, und standen jederzeit mit Rat und Tat zur Seite.
Insgesamt waren wir rund neun Stunden unterwegs und erlebten einen abwechslungsreichen Tag mit vielen schönen Eindrücken, spannenden Tauchgängen, einem hervorragenden Service und unvergesslichen Begegnungen mit der Meereswelt. Ein rundum gelungener Ausflug, den wir gerne weiterempfehlen.
The staff on the vessel is fantastic – the dive guides were incredible!!!!
Great food – and staff that was there in anticipation of every need.
I bow to the service and experience ❤️
Our 3rd trip with Emperor liveaboard.
Abbiamo alloggiato al Wadi Sabarah Lodge che è un paradiso per gli amanti della natura, della tradizione locale e del relax e scoperto per caso il centro Emperor divers poiché non avendo mai fatto immersioni prima non avevamo neanche ricercato nulla al riguardo e invece vinta la paura grazie a Simon che è un istruttore eccellente (parla perfettamente sia inglese sia italiano) abbiamo scoperto quanto è bello fare immersioni. Abbiamo effettuato tutti gli esercizi preparatori ed il briefing iniziale per imparare le basi e poi siamo partiti alla scoperta del reef di Abu Dabbab che è semplicemente meraviglioso con i suoi coralli pesci e tartarughe. Tutto è stato perfetto anche la crew e l’attrezzatura e le tempistiche in questa cornice bellissima del Wadi Sabarah. Abbiamo anche approfittato della gentilezza di Simon per capire cosa fare nei giorni di vacanza qui visto che non avevamo organizzato nulla ed in generale per mille consigli e curiosità.
Special thanks goes to our friend and instructor Marwan!!
Highly professional especially towards safety, ecological awareness and a talent for spotting rare animals like e.g. scorpion fish!
We always felt very safe and we now feel confident as divers.
It was a big pleasure and we will keep coming back here.
Port Ghalib is simply one of the best hubs for getting to the coolest dive sites in Egypt.
