Thread: Scuba Diving in Sharm El Sheikh

Hello Travel lovers!!
I am going to Sharm El Sheikh and I would like to do scuba diving. Can you please give me ideas and suggestions about where to do it, what diving school are out there? I have never been to Egypt nor did scuba diving but i am really exited!! Thanks in advance.
Hope to hear from you soon,
mims

I would like to recommend Aquarius Dive Club in the Sheraton Hotel in Sharm el Sheikh.

that is true, i have also heard about it...but doesn't thailand have better options, have heard alot about thailand as well?

I would reccomend a course I went on a year ago with GoLearnTo which was in Sharm El Sheikh - diving into the Red Sea. I also did my PADI qualification with them and was almost offered a job there too - its a shame I already had a job to come back to, otherwise I'd still be staying there!!
I think their website is GoLearnTo.com or something - have a look, I'd def do it again!

The area in which you can go diving in this region is also quite large and offers a variety of various diving spots that will offer you a different perspective each time you go to a new location. Combine these factors with the relative and moderate calm of the waters and you have the set up for the perfect dive.
