BrizAzores

One of the best ways to experience the Azores waters.

BrizAzores liveaboard is the best and fairest way to explore the Azores archipelago combining your scuba diving adventures with sailing in style between the islands and most popular dive sites.

The BrizAzores liveaboard is one of the best ways to explore the Azores archipelago combining your scuba diving adventures with sailing in style between the islands. BrizAcores offers liveaboard diving itineraries with a real twist where you can enjoy the islands’ culture and delights in the evenings and the diverse underwater landscapes including coastal dives with volcanic seafloors inhabited by a variety of species, wreck dives and cave diving during the day. The itineraries aboard the BrizAcores will bring you to one of the island’s harbours most evenings apart from when you dive the offshore banks.

Your week aboard the BrizAcores includes breakfast, an optional daily menu with lunch and dinner is available for an additional 30 Euros per day including water and juices. Wines can also be served aboard at an extra charge. Your return to an island harbour every day means you can venture out in the evening and try the different restaurants on the villages as you stop.

This Bavaria 46 is a 14 metres long sailboat with 4 bedrooms, 3 toilets and a shower, a living room and a fully equipped kitchen accommodating a total of 10 divers and 2 crew members who will assist you throughout your stay with any questions you may have about the itinerary, destination or boat.

The BrizAcores will always sail, even if there is only one diver booked on the trip. Usually other divers will start their trip on a different day of the week. This is a great way to accommodate all divers arriving on different days of the week whilst ensuring the same dive sites are not repeated and the best dives spots are visited by every guest.

7 nights at the Oasis Dive Resort

Our experience with using Ultimate Diving was very good. The booking was easy and professionally carried out. We stayed at the Oasis Dive Resort, Marsa Alam, Egypt. It was the perfect place to enjoy a great diving and snorkeling location whilst staying at a relaxing, informal and quiet hotel, whose architecture was sensitive to its desert environment and whose staff were friendly and welcoming. The beautiful house reef was amazing! We have stayed there three times before and hope to go back next year. We would thoroughly recommend both Ultimate Diving and the Oasis Dive Resort. Thank you for another great holiday. Helen and Jane

7 nights abord the BrizAcores

The dive centre has a real family feel – it’s owned by husband and wife (Zecca and Marisa), and you can tell they invest a lot of time and effort in their clients. I was the only person booked in with them during my week (as it was just outside of the main dive season); whilst this initially appeared daunting they went out of their way to make it an exceptional week’s holiday for me. I could not recommend this holiday and dive centre highly enough – they went out of their way to really look after me, accommodate everything I wanted to do, cater for my level of diving experience etc; the diving was spectacular with great sea life, suitable for both beginners and advanced divers (and opportunities to regularly go down to 30m and beyond) and so long as you’re prepared to be flexible (eg weather), it is an amazing experience which I hope to repeat again soon.
