At the southernmost tip of the Sinai Peninsula where the Gulf of Suez meets the Gulf of Aqaba, you will find an underwater paradise -a rainbow world with vibrant reefs and thrilling drop-offs which are home to more than one thousand species of tropical fish, corals, Manta Rays, Turtles, Sharks and the famous Napoleons.
With superb year-round visibility and endless sunshine, the diving Mecca which surrounds the resort towns of the Egyptian Red Sea will keep you coming back again and again to experience the splendors of the Red Sea.
Our company is an operation of six dive centers situated on the shores of the Red Sea. We are located on the Sinai Peninsula in Sharm El Sheikh and on mainland Egypt in Hurghada. Egypt is in the arid desert belt, therefore hot in the day and cool to cold at night.
Water temperature is constantly 20-26° C (lowest in February, highest in August). Wetsuits are necessary throughout the year, normally 4 mm in summer and 7 mm in winter. Watch for dehydration due to low humidity. Drink far more water than usual and add extra salt to your meals.
We aim to make your Red Sea experience the holiday of a lifetime. We offer five-star service to our clients. Whether you are a first timer, a recently certified diver, or an experienced diver, we believe that Egypt has something for everyone. We offer courses in the following languages: English, French, Italian, German, Dutch, Spanish, Arabic, Russian, Czech/Slovak, Serbian, Turkish and Greek.
All of our centers are PADI Gold Palm Instructor Development Centers which specialize in diver training. As Gold Palm IDC centers, we are acknowledged by PADI as providing the highest standards of education and professionalism. We have been in the Red Sea for the last 25 years and our knowledge of local reefs and customs will guarantee you a relaxed and comfortable holiday.
We offer a wide variety of dive activities and special programs. Whether your interests involve extensive dive trips on our live aboard boats, land safaris which take you up and around the Gulf of Aqaba, or simply a snorkeling trip to discover the wonders which reside just beneath the surface, we can supply you with an itinerary certain to impress.
Our mission is to provide customer satisfaction with a dedicated and international team of dive professionals committed to providing First Class Service. We would like to show you the ultimate underwater playground the Egyptian Red Sea.
