Off to dive into the crystal-clear waters of Sharm! In the morning, after a good breakfast, the minibus driver will be waiting for you in front of your hotel. The meeting time is usually between 7:30 and 8:00 a.m. to take advantage of the light and the mild temperature. After a short drive of about 20 minutes, you'll arrive at the dive center, located on the marina. On your first day, the team will have you try on fins, a mask, and a snorkel to make sure everything fits perfectly. If you have your own equipment, feel free to bring it along!
Our instructors will help you fill in any gaps in your training. Around 9 a.m., the boat will cast off and take you to one of the many dive sites accessible from the marina. You'll share the boat with scuba divers, who will use the trip to set up their equipment. And you? You're on vacation: relax and admire the scenery. The instructor will ring the bell for the briefing. They will show you a map of the dive site, review the areas to explore from the boat, and give you safety instructions. Finally, it's time to get underwater! The dive sites are chosen based on skill levels and preferences, as well as the weather conditions.
Each one more beautiful than the last, you'll feel like you're swimming in an aquarium. For your safety, the crew watches over you from the boat throughout your trip, and a Zodiac is...
