Fitness and Health

You don't need to be an athlete to participate in scuba diving and anyone who can swim and has an average level of fitness can enjoy the activity.

Some medical conditions, eg heart disease or active asthma, may prevent you from participating in scuba diving, subject to appropriate advice from a doctor.

Ocean College strongly recommends you complete this medical questionnaire prior to arrival in resort, although diving medicals can be obtained locally in Sharm El Sheikh.
