We are deeply sorry to hear about the fire aboard the Emperor Seven Seas in Port Ghalib. It’s never easy to learn of such an incident, especially within our close-knit Red Sea diving community. Our thoughts are with the guests, crew, and the entire Emperor Divers team during this challenging time.

We are relieved and grateful to hear that everyone was safely evacuated thanks to the swift and professional actions of the crew and the cooperation of the guests onboard. It’s a testament to the incredible training and dedication of liveaboard crews that all lives were protected without injury.

At Red Sea Safaris, safety has always been our top priority. Incidents like this remind us of the importance of rigorous safety protocols, ongoing crew training, and well-maintained equipment — all of which we continuously seek in our liveaboard fleet.

Port Ghalib is a vibrant hub for divers setting off on unforgettable Red Sea adventures, and we know the diving community will rally around Emperor Divers as they work through this situation. We admire their transparency and the support they’re providing to guests and crew onshore.

We’ll continue to follow this story closely and hope for a swift resolution to the investigation. In the meantime, we remain committed to offering exceptional, safe, and memorable diving experiences throughout the Red Sea.

If you have any questions or concerns about your upcoming liveaboard holiday with us, feel free to reach out to our team. Let’s keep the spirit of Red Sea diving alive and strong — together.
