Meet Captain Karim – the heart and soul behind Tortuga Speedboat.

​

Karam's journey in the Red Sea began when he was just 17. Starting out in Sharm El Sheikh on a daily kite surf boat, he quickly found his way to the world of dive safaris in Hurghada. What began as a seaman’s job soon turned into a true calling.

 

Through dedication, skill, and a deep respect for the ocean, Karam rose through the ranks to become captain of a large safari boat – a position he held for two years - until he became the Captain of his own boat, the Tortuga!

 

With years of experience navigating the Red Sea, Karam knows the waters like the back of his hand – from shifting currents to weather patterns. With him at the helm, you’re in the best possible hands.
