A full diving day from Safaga — two guided intro dives (or a certified two-tank plan), snorkeling in between, and a hot lunch with unlimited soft drinks as you cruise home.
Out of Safaga, onto a yacht, under the Red Sea — a first dive you'll retell for years.
Overview
Safaga has salt in its blood — a working Red Sea port that windsurfers and divers quietly rate among Egypt's best coasts. Your day starts with an included hotel pickup and a coastal drive to the marina, where a fully equipped dive yacht is fuelled for two reefs.
First-timers are the heroes here. After a relaxed briefing your instructor takes you down on a guided intro dive of about twenty minutes — within touch the whole time — over coral that looks lit from inside. Two separate reefs mean two different underwater worlds in one day, and snorkelers can float above every one of them.
Between the two sites the crew opens the buffet: fresh, generous, and backed by unlimited soft drinks and hot drinks. Eat, dry off, watch the water — then descend again.
Licensed divers can skip the intro format and take two guided 30–40-minute dives with their certification card. Everyone gets the on-board shower, the slow cruise back, and the drive home to Safaga before evening. Cancellation is free; you can reserve now and pay on arrival.

Two guided intro dives over two different reefs — no licence, no stress.

Fresh buffet lunch plus unlimited soft and hot drinks on board.
