Dive Holics - Jeddah
The team at Dive Holics really knows the Red Sea around Jeddah. They’re a PADI 5 Star IDC, so if you’re thinking about going pro, or even just getting serious about your diving, this is a solid choice. We’ve found their instructors strike a great balance between serious training and making sure everyone's having a good time. It’s a good option if you appreciate a well-run operation that prioritises safety and proper technique, without being stuffy about it. What we really appreciate about Dive Holics is their access to the northern Red Sea sites. We’re talking about reefs that feel far less trodden than some of the more southerly spots, and you’ll often get them almost to yourselves. On a morning dive with them, we remember dropping onto a wall thick with soft corals, the sunlight dappling through schools of antheas. It’s that kind of quiet beauty you find here. They’re great for arranging day trips that often hit multiple sites, and their boats are comfortable enough for a relaxed surface interval with hot tea. If you’re looking to escape the crowds and dive some healthy, less-pressured reefs, Dive Holics consistently delivers.
