RedSea-Divers - Hurghada
The team at RedSea-Divers are a solid choice in Hurghada, especially if you’re looking to get certified or brush up your skills. We've always found their PADI courses run like clockwork, well-organised without feeling rushed. They’re a great fit for new divers or those travelling with family who might need a bit more hand-holding. What we really appreciate about RedSea-Divers is their focus on the local sites. Rather than chasing every big name, they spend a lot of time around the reefs close to Hurghada, like Shaab El Erg, where we’ve had some cracking encounters with resident bottlenose dolphins, often curious and playful. Or Abu Ramada, famous for its drift dives and the chance to spot white tip reef sharks tucked under ledges if you know where to look. They’re particularly good at finding the quieter moments, heading out a little earlier or later to avoid the busier boats. Expect clear briefings, well-maintained gear, and a relaxed atmosphere back at the centre. Our tip? Ask them about their early morning trips; the light on the corals is something else.
