Scuba diving for the first time becomes approachable with full instructor support and calm, shallow dive sites chosen for beginners. The day is structured to build confidence gradually, starting with clear instructions before moving into guided underwater sessions. Between dives, there’s time to relax on the boat and reset for the next part of the experience.
Hotel pickup in the morning leads to a transfer down to the marina where the boat is prepared for departure. After boarding, the crew runs through equipment setup and a safety briefing, explaining how the diving will work step by step. Once ready, the boat heads out to nearby dive locations selected for their calm conditions and suitability for first-time divers.
Each dive is fully supervised, with one instructor assigned per participant to ensure close support throughout. You’ll complete two separate dives at different reef spots, each around 20 minutes, reaching shallow depths designed for introductory training. Between dives, the boat returns to a relaxed pace with lunch served onboard and time to rest before heading back to port in the afternoon.
Along the Red Sea coastline in Hurghada, the marina provides access to sheltered reef systems known for clear water and stable conditions. Dive sites are selected nearby to reduce travel time and maximise time spent in the water.
