Sherazade live-aboard
Sherazade is a twin engine live-aboard motor yacht, measuring 33 metres in length and accommodating 16 guests in eight en-suite twin cabins.
She is operated by an experienced team who have made the Sudan their home for over 20 years and know each reef intimately - there is no one better to guide you through the Sudanese waters.
Boat rating: GOLD CLASS BOAT
BOAT RATINGS...
We rate live-aboard boats into three categories; GOLD, SILVER & BRONZE.
• GOLD boats would usually be newer, nicely furnished, fully air-conditioned and have en-suite bathrooms (toilet & shower) in all cabins.
• SILVER boats may be older and not so well furnished. These would normally also be fully air-conditioned and may also have en-suite bathrooms in guest cabins.
• BRONZE boats would normally be older and may have centrally controlled air-conditioning. These boats are unlikely to have en-suite bathrooms in guest cabins.
These are Aquatours own ratings and are quite basic, but give you some idea of how different boats may compare to each other.

The saloon area is great if you're looking for somewhere cool & out of the sun, to chill out for a bit, but for those that can't get enough sunshine there are two sundecks! One partly shaded and one open to the elements.
Diving
View of dive deck - Sherazade.
There is a generously sized dive deck at the rear of the boat, which that means you can kit up in comfort.
With 7 night or 14 nights on board Sherazade, our different itineraries offer a real chance to get to grips with this diving wonderland. The Sudan Discovery aims to show off the crème de la crème of Sudan’s diving, visiting what are becoming classic dive sites such as Sha’ab Rumi, Mesharifa, Con Shelf II and the Umbria. In contrast, the Sudan Frontier pushes the boundaries and takes the opportunity to get to the well-kept secrets and deep pinnacles of the Suakin Islands. The 2 week Sudan Expedition combines both of the above itineraries to give the complete Sudan experience. All itineraries offer one night in Cairo at either end of the trip and the opportunity to visit Cairo’s famous pyramids and museum.
Safety & Navigation
The boat is equipped with life rafts, life jackets, fire extinguishers, smoke detectors & fire alarm system, first aid kit & a 50 litre oxygen tank or emergencies. Navigation equipment includes GPS, radar, echo sounder and VHF radio.
