Who Can Do It?
Basically anyone aged 12 and over who passes the dive medical questionnaire can try an Introductory Dive.
IMPORTANT: you can go directly from high altitude to scuba diving, but you should not fly (or visit altitude) shortly after your dive, so please do not book your dive for the same day you are scheduled to fly. You should plan a 24 hours surface interval between diving and flying.

What to Expect?
After putting on the diving equipment, you will enter the water. Your instructor will be with you every step of the way. On entering the water, he will make sure you are comfortable. When you are ready, you will descend with him to 1 meter under the surface, so you can practice breathing through your regulator and check that your mask is fitted correctly. Once you are comfortable, you descend another few meters, to become familiar with your new surroundings. When you have indicated that you are ready, your instructor will take you by the hand and start the exploration of the aquatic realm.
The dive is to a maximum depth of 7 meters and lasts between 20 and 30 minutes, depending on your air consumption. Your instructor will operate all the equipment for you. All you have to do is RELAX, BREATHE & ENJOY the beautiful Red Sea, one of the world’s most famous marine environments.
After the dive and debriefing, our driver will drop you back to your hotel (disclaimer: your mind may be wandering somewhere underwater for the rest of the day 😉).
Our driver will pick you up at your hotel in the morning and drop you to the dive site or the marina, where our team will be waiting for you. Once on the beach (for shore dives), or on the boat (for boat dives), your instructor will give you a full briefing on equipment, safety, underwater skills and the marine life you’ll be likely to see during the dive.
