Sharm
el Sheikh is a world-class diving destination due to the high quality and diversity of the coral and associated marine life.
With its year round sunshine, warm waters and outstanding visibility (typically 20 to 30 metres) Sharm el Sheikh provides an underwater wonderland for divers and snorkellers of all levels of training and experience.
Dive sites include the protected Ras Mohammed and Tiran National Parks and the wrecks of the SS Dunraven (1876) and the world famous World War II merchant ship, SS Thistlegorm (1941).
Diving can cost as little as £26 per person per day, including tanks and weights. See below for dive pack pricing.
If booked on arrival in resort dive services will be charged at the local rate in Euros, which may be higher, see below.
Dive packages are for qualified divers only and you will need to bring your logbook and certification card with you. A check dive on your first day will be required if you have not dived within the last six months. If you have not dived for more than 12 months then a scuba review will be required, this is to ensure that your skills and understanding are up-to-speed. These can be booked and paid for locally.
