M/Y Celesta — premium safari liveaboard on the Red Sea

M/Y Celesta

Our home on the Red Sea

Our Vessel

We don't charter someone else's boat — Celesta is ours.

M/Y Celesta is a 36m premium safari liveaboard built in 2026 with a traditional wood hull. She was designed from the ground up for divers — recreational and technical alike — with a spacious dive deck, full gas blending capabilities, and Scandinavian-inspired interiors that make the surface intervals as enjoyable as the dives.

With 12 cabins accommodating up to 24 guests and a dedicated crew of 12, Celesta offers the kind of personal, attentive service that only comes from a vessel we own and operate ourselves. Every detail — from the dive infrastructure to the cuisine — reflects what we believe a premium liveaboard experience should be.
