How to choose
- Beginner try dive vs certified scuba courses: Try dives require zero previous experience and introduce scuba skills gently under direct supervision, whereas open water courses require academic exams and formal testing.
- Intro scuba dive vs surface snorkeling: Scuba diving lets you breathe comfortably beneath the waves to observe reef life up close, while snorkeling remains floating on the water surface.
- Boat diving day vs shore diving: Full-day boat trips travel to pristine offshore marine park reefs with buffet lunch and drinks served between two distinct dive stops.
FAQ
Questions about Diving in hurghada
Can I try scuba diving without previous certification?
Yes. Beginner intro scuba diving is designed specifically for first-time divers without certification. Before entering the water, an instructor explains basic safety rules, hand signals and breathing techniques. You then descend to a gentle depth of six metres with direct one-to-one underwater instructor supervision.
What is the maximum depth for beginner intro dives?
Beginner try dives reach a maximum depth of six metres in calm, sheltered waters. This depth provides excellent natural light, dense marine life and safe pressure levels for first-time divers. The dive takes place along a colourful reef slope, accompanied by a dedicated instructor throughout the underwater descent.
Is all scuba diving equipment included in the trip?
Yes. The trip includes all required scuba gear: wetsuit, buoyancy control device, regulator, air tank, weights, mask and fins. Equipment is thoroughly inspected and prepared before departure. You also receive an open buffet lunch, soft drinks and complimentary hotel transfers.
How long must I wait to fly after scuba diving?
Medical diving guidelines require a minimum wait of 18 hours after completing your scuba dive before boarding a flight. This safety interval allows residual nitrogen to clear naturally from your body before experiencing cabin altitude changes, so you should schedule diving earlier in your holiday stay.
Can non-divers join a friend on the diving boat?
Yes. Guests who do not wish to scuba dive can join the cruise as snorkeling participants. They can enjoy the boat voyage, spacious sun decks, freshly prepared buffet lunch and guided surface snorkeling at reef stops while divers complete their underwater sessions.
