Diving possibilities

You have four options for diving with us:

Dives on the house reef

You can dive at any time in the house reef directly in front of the dive center. House reef dives with a guide are possible daily at 9:20 am and 2 pm. You can get your tanks at the dive center so that you can easily prepare your equipment there. You can dive in the house reef either from our jetty or via the beach shore. Please register in advance at the reception of the dive center to sign in on the list and receive your tanks.

Short trips by boat

On several days of the week we offer short trips twice a day with one dive each. We have plenty of beautiful dive sites to choose from, which are max. 30 minutes away by boat. The meeting points for the tours are at 9 am and 1:45 pm.

Early morning dives (meeting point 6 am) are also offered by us.
Sun-set dives (meeting point depends on the day) are only available in the summer months.

Half day tours by boat

Several times a week we offer a half day tour with two dives within a max. 30-minute driving time. The meeting point for the tour is at 8:30 am. We also have plenty of beautiful dive sites to offer. Drinks are available on the boat and are paid for in cash to the boat crew (soft drinks 1 €, water 0,50 €). Tea and coffee are available for free.

Full day tours by boat

We also offer daily tours with two dives. The meeting point is at 8:30 am. Various beautiful dive sites are also available here. There is usually the option of a third dive on daily tours by previous arrangement (surcharge 23 €). For the daily tours, we have a large boat on which you can also get lunch and drinks. The lunch buffet costs 5 €, soft drinks 1 €, water 0,50 €. Tea and coffee are included. Lunch and drinks are paid for in cash on the boat to the boat crew. If you would like to have lunch on the boat, please put a “X” next to ‘lunch’ on the excursion list for planning purposes.

Snorkelers are also very welcome on all our boat tours.

Diving packages

We offer dive packages for boat dives. These can be dived flexibly. A break in between is no problem. The packages with boat dives can be dived on all three tours (short trip, half-day tour, day tour). The surcharge for a 3rd dive is not included in the dive package and is charged separately. The dive packages do not have to be booked in advance. At check-out, a package price is automatically charged when a certain number of dives is reached.

Diving courses

We also offer you the opportunity to take various diving courses with us. We offer these according to the SSI standard and, on request, according to the PADI- and CMAS-standard.

Our courses range from Open Water Diver to advanced courses to Dive Master. We also offer various specialty courses. For diving beginners, we also offer try dives in our house reef and from the boat.

Check-Dive

Your first dive with us is a check-dive, which you can do daily at the house reef or on certain boat tours. Of course, the guide will accompany you on this dive without extra charge.

Divers with more than 25 logged dives or an Advanced certification can dive independently with a buddy after the check dive.

Divers with less than 25 dives without an Advanced certification must be accompanied by one of our guides. Accompanying a guide costs 5 € per person per dive.

Nitrox

We offer all certified Nitrox divers in the interests of safety:

NITROX 32 % FOR FREE

-> Analyser & a list to register are available on the house reef and on the boat.

Insurance Deco chamber

We support the deco chamber “Deco International” in Safaga (approx. 10 minutes away). With a one-time donation of 7 €, you can insure yourself for three weeks. With this insurance, up to six hours in the decompression chamber would be free of charge in the event of a diving accident. If you are unable to proof that you have insurance, you will have to pay the entire costs yourself.

Check-In

For check-in, we need from you:

Diving license / Brevet
Logbook
Medical certificate or a medical self-disclosure form to be filled out on site

Passport or National Identity Card

Check-Out

At some point, even the best time comes to an end and you have to go home again:

Please return all your rental equipment and weights to us.
- Broken or lost rental equipment will be charged.
Please bring your logbook with you so that we can compare our entries.

Fees

In order to be fair to all divers, we must inform you that we will charge the full price for the boat tours in the event of cancelations or no-shows if you do not contact our reception, by telephone or by e-mail and let us know by 5 pm the day before at the latest.

You only pay the rental fee for your rental equipment for the days on which you actually dive. We therefore ask you to inform us if you take a break from diving in between.
