Diving in Hurghada: 2 dives, small groups, certified divers

Two dives on one boat, split into groups by experience so nobody waits for anybody else

A full-day diving activity in Hurghada with two dives at separate Red Sea sites, hotel pickup within 10 km, lunch, cold drinks and experienced multilingual guides who split divers into small groups by certification level. You bring your dive card. The boat brings two full 12L tanks per person, weights, rental gear if you book it, and a 27-meter vessel with sun beds and a shaded deck between dives.

The experience

The day starts with a bus pickup from your hotel and ends the same way. Once on the 27-meter boat, you'll get a full safety briefing while the captain heads toward the first dive site. The crew splits certified divers into small groups matched to experience level, so each group moves at its own pace with an experienced guide. You dive for as long as you want: the tanks hold enough air for more than an hour if you choose to use it. After the first dive, there's a full lunch buffet and time to rest in the shade or on the sun beds while cold drinks stay available.

The second dive happens around 2 pm at a different site. Both spots are chosen for the mix of skill levels on the boat that day. At 4 pm the boat docks and your driver brings you back to the hotel. The operator lists safety as the priority and staffs each small group with its own guide. They speak English, French, German, Arabic and two additional languages. You'll need at least a moderate level of fitness and a valid dive certification. Bring your card and note your last dive date and number of dives when you book.

Rental equipment is available for an extra charge if you need it. Just provide your weight, height and shoe size at reservation. Larger tanks (15L) or nitrox are available on request for a surcharge. If your hotel sits more than 10 km from the marina, there's an additional pickup fee. Cold drinks and lunch are included. The operator notes the lunch is excellent and the dive equipment is reliable.
