Diving in Hurghada

When booking a stay in our holiday rentals in Hurghada, for the purpose of vacationing or leisure, diving is almost a must.

Clearly, diving wasn’t for the guy who left the googles and stayed on land, but the duck and the swan seems mighty interested so, as a result, perhaps diving is more for them?

We didn’t stay around long enough to find that out.

Such a rich and natural diving culture, including dolphins and turtles, is very hard to find anywhere in the world.

Many of our staying guest at Tiba Resort and Sheraton Plaza,  in view of the great diving in Hurghada, are often super excited after their day(s) under the surface of the Red Sea.

There are so many diving companies in Hurghada, such as Diving Star, Dive Hurghada and Scuba Hurghada Dive Center, that we can’t recommend one over the other.

PADI, Professional Association of Diving Instructors, that is to say an organization setting standards, have some suggestions on their website for diving in Hurghada.

If you feel like diving somewhere else than in all the swimming pools available at our holiday rentals in Hurghada, notably the Red Sea, you should check out the PADI website where you also can make online reservations.

There are plenty of bookable day trips well worth looking into and, furthermore, we can be your home away from home on land.
