Sahl Hasheesh: Try Scuba Diving — Two-Reef Red Sea Cruise with Lunch & Drinks
From Sahl Hasheesh's quiet sands to a coral wall humming with fish — in one easy day.
Sahl Hasheesh does mornings beautifully — and this one ends with you on a dive yacht. A short included transfer brings you from your hotel to the boat, and before the day warms up you are already cutting across open Red Sea water toward the first of two reefs.
Diving here needs no experience and no licence: your instructor handles the theory in plain language, checks every strap twice, and stays within arm's reach as you descend. The sound of the boat disappears. What is left is your own breathing and a reef going about its business — wrasse patrolling, damselfish flickering, coral fans swaying in the current.
You surface to the smell of lunch. The crew serves a fresh buffet on board with unlimited soft drinks and tea, then points the bow at a second reef with a different character — new colours, new fish, and a second twenty-minute dive to lock the feeling in.
Snorkelers are welcome the whole way, children from age two can join the boat, and licensed divers can switch to a deeper two-dive programme of 30–40 minutes per descent. A warm shower, a lazy sail back, and you are at your Sahl Hasheesh hotel by evening. Free cancellation — reserve now, pay when you arrive.

Fantastic. First dive with a patient instructor and superb snorkelling for the non-divers. Unlimited drinks and a good buffet. Ideal day out from Sahl Hasheesh.
Perfect day. Did my first dive off Sahl Hasheesh and loved it, and there was great snorkelling for the rest of the group. Beautiful reefs, lovely buffet.
Best thing we did in Sahl Hasheesh. Breathing underwater is magic, and the reefs were teeming with fish. The crew were so encouraging. Loved the unlimited drinks too.
Such a fun day. Did my first dive and couldn't stop smiling, and the snorkellers had a ball too. The instructor was brilliant and the reefs stunning.
Absolutely brilliant. First-dive nerves gone within minutes thanks to a fantastic instructor. The reefs were full of life and we even saw a turtle. Best day of the holiday.
