Diving & Water Sports

The Red Sea is one of the easiest places in the world to learn to dive: warm, clear and shallow near the shore. Our diving trips cover beginner scuba dives on the house reef, snorkelling with dolphins and the watersports parks of Hurghada, Dahab, Marsa Alam and El Gouna.

Why choose Diving & Water Sports

  • 19 diving and water sports trips — beginner scuba, snorkelling, dolphins and jet skis
  • Hurghada house reef: shallow, warm and perfect for a first dive
  • Dahab and the Lighthouse Reef, one of the finest shallow dives in the Red Sea
  • Intro dives from $26, full courses and private sessions on request

Where the tours start

The boats leave from the marina of the resort you stay in — Hurghada, Marsa Alam, El Gouna, Dahab or Aqaba — and the water sports stations are a few minutes from the beach hotels. The pick-up from the hotel is included in every trip, and the equipment is waiting on the boat.

Best time to book

From March to November the water stays between 22 and 27°C and the visibility is at its best. From December to February the sea is a little cooler (19-22°C) and the coral is further away, but the prices drop and the dolphins are still around. The calmest days for a first dive are always in the morning.

Frequently asked questions

Not for the snorkelling trips and not for the intro dive: the guide takes you through a short pool session on the boat and then a supervised dive in shallow water. The certified programmes (Open Water, Advanced) need a recognised certificate, which the operator checks before the trip.
Swimwear, a towel, sunscreen and a hat for the boat. The mask, the snorkel, the wetsuit and the dive computer are on the boat, and there is fresh water to rinse off afterwards. For the intro dive you need a swimsuit and a signed medical form.
The kneeboard, banana and towable rides start at 10 years old with an adult, and the jet skis from 16. The snorkelling boats and the dolphin trips are fine for the whole family, and the crew keeps an eye on the children in the water.
