Subex Diving Center - Sharm el-Sheikh

We’ve always found Subex in Sharm el-Sheikh to be a solid choice for exploring the northern Red Sea. They cater well to divers looking to progress their skills, offering a good range of courses beyond the basics, including technical diving, which isn't always easy to find locally. Their daily boat trips hit the big sites, so you can expect to see the usual suspects – plenty of schooling bannerfish, maybe a Napoleon wrasse cruising by, and those dramatic wall dives the area is famous for. If you’re serious about your diving and want a professional, no-fuss setup, they fit the bill nicely.
