Highlights: Scuba diving amongst Red Sea coral reefs & fish, sun, sea & beaches of Hurghada.
As one of the natural wonders of the world, the Red Sea is unparalleled in its diversity of marine life, including some of the most beautiful coral reefs and dizzying drop offs in the world. This tour features ten pre-booked dives, with all your equipment hire included, and accommodation in a comfortable hotel close to the dive-centre in Hurghada. The dives on this tour are all boat based. Extension options are available to start and finish the tour in Cairo if required.
We begin this tour in Hurghada, where you are met at the airport, and then transferred to your hotel (we can also extend the tour to start & finish in Cairo if you wish, giving you the chance to see the pyramids & sphinx while you are in Egypt, or to fit in with your scheduled flights or another tour). Once you've settled in, we'll introduce you to the staff at the Dive Centre where you'll spend the next 5 days diving.
Our all-inclusive dive package covers all your diving (including equipment) and transfers to the diving sites. The diving in Hurghada is world class and you will have a guide to take you to some of the most exciting dive sites around Hurghada. Sites visited may include the Carless Reef, Island Reef and Dolphin Reef, along with many other of Hurghada's fantastic dive sites. The tour is based on two dives a day, though you may have the option of night diving as well. Extra dives (i.e. night dives) can be paid for locally at the dive centre.
If you haven't dived for over 6 months, then you will be required to do a Refresher Dive before starting the main dive package.
