About Us

Alsuraya, the Arabic name for the Plejades constellation, carries deep significance in Egyptian seafaring history. The stars of the Plejades have long been used by sailors for navigation, guiding ships safely across the vast waters of the Red Sea and beyond. This celestial reference embodies guidance, adventure, and the connection between humanity and the mysteries of the sea. Naming the liveaboard Alsuraya honors this legacy, blending the wonders of the cosmos with the rich maritime heritage of Egypt.
