Nile Divine — 8-Cabin Dahabiya
A 60-metre sailing dahabiya on the Nile. Eight cabins, sixteen guests, two sundecks and a spa. Known as The Floating Gallery.
Under sail
The Nile Divine is a dahabiya measuring 60 metres by 9. It carries sixteen guests across eight cabins. Every room holds original artwork by Alaa Abu El Hamd, a Luxor artist. Sculptures by local artists sit throughout the vessel. The owner designed the boat herself and hand-drew the furniture, using alabaster and travertine sourced in Egypt. The result is a vessel that reads as a gallery as much as a ship.
The Boreas Floating Resort is our own 20-cabin vessel, built for full private charters in the Red Sea.
