Dive UK taught me more in 1 month than a lifetime of school. Recently, I was informed by my school that i had to do a 1 month project on anything pertaining to ‘life experience’. I felt directionless and decided to call up Steve to see … More if he would give me guidance, he immediately offered support when needed and within days i had easily organised my trip without any hassle. I was told i would shadow under steve as he imparted his diving wisdom, as well as learn what it means to be an instructor and run a successful business, alongside doing my Rescue EFR and 3 specialty courses.
Dive UK delivered everything i could have hoped for and more. After a scary and jumbled trip through multiple airports, i was immediately welcomed by Steve and made to feel like family. My accommodation was clean with respectful, catering staff that were at my disposal for any minor issue or need.
Steve as an instructor is uniquely perfect, equipped with a breadth of knowledge like no other and the perfectionist mentality that any diver ,no matter how experienced, could learn from. Every step is laid out for you and by following his exact instruction you will succeed no doubt. Observing him teach and guide new divers was worth a million PADI courses.
Every mistake of mine was noted and ironed out and in a caring yet tough way. Steve speaks in a concise manner carefully illustrating each step and is willing to go at your pace until you learn.
Everything was made easy by Dive UK. I also want to mention the wonderful second instructor Emma, whose zest for life and bubbly personality makes every day on the boat a dream. She is a calm, well mannered and observant diver with a keen eye and a big heart. Definitely worth coming back for.
I came for a life experience and had very high expectations, Dive UK delivered everything i could have hoped for and more. I could feel the love they have for diving and the passion they have for students every single day. I can go home a very happy man with a newfound mentality and appreciation for life, as well as memories that will last a lifetime. All thanks to Dive UK -

Me and my partner booked a scuba dive and a boat trip to swim with dolphins in the Red Sea Egypt with Steve and his team. Day 1 we did scuba diving with Emma who was absolutely awesome! She was very friendly, that had a great sense of humour … More she assured both of us that we could take our time. She made us both feel so confident that as I got into the water I was totally calm and 100% trusted her. I was happy to dive down within seconds of entering the water and had the most amazing experience 10/10 by far blew other dive companies out of the water. Day 2 consisted of Steve and his team taking us out on a speed boat he found a pod of around 13/14 dolphins which we were able to snorkel with (I returned to the boat shortly after swallowing a few cups of sea water lol) my my partner swam next to wild dolphins for around 20/30mins. I was so happy as it was one of her life long dreams completed 😀 Steve is fantastic very honest and genuine guy and made our experiences better than we could have expected. 10/10 for dive uk please check out their page and we will be returning next year to complete our open water license
🙂 see you in the summer ❤️ -

Found this company on line and booked it to get my 16 year old son certified. Could not have been more happy with the choice. Steve was a fantastic instructor. He is 100% focused on safety and it was obvious that my son was in very safe … More hands. Pick ups / transfers from our hotel were always bang on time and there were no hidden extras. Hugely professional and far superior to any other dive company that I have used before! I would 100% recommend.
My son and I then went on to do a 2 tank boat dive with Emma the following day. Emma was absolutely brilliant. As with Steve she was super focused on safety but also on marine conservation - such a responsible dive company. The boat was also the best I’ve been on - brilliant crew, plenty of space and an unexpected really tasty lunch.
Could not have asked for a better dive experience all round! -

Dive UK Hurghada was a great company to dive with and I would highly recommend. Their dive and safety equipment was spot and on, some of the best I've seen in a reactional dive center. I dived with Emma for two days off the boat 'Blue' … More which had a really helpful crew. Emma was great and took my wife for her intro dives. Emma's professional and calming nature help calm my wife's nerves on her first underwater adventure. I would highly recommend Dive UK Hurghada especially for new/nervous divers or those looking to learn. Thanks to Emma and the whole team for a great time. Plus the red sea is always a delight with lots of life

I recently qualified as an open water diver meaning I felt nervous going into the Red Sea for the first time. However these nerves went instantly after I met who my dive instructor was, Emma. She made me feel safe and comfortable in the … More water showing me loads of cool new things for the first time. She knew the dive sites well ensuring every dive was amazing. It was a great experience and I wish I was doing it all again so hopefully back very soon, I highly recommend this to anyone looking to scuba dive.

Me and my friend travelled to Egypt in September, having already booked an open water course and an advanced course with dive UK Hurghada. We were in frequent contact with Steve, which was beneficial prior to our arrival. The open water … More course was brilliant, and has taught us all of the skills required to be able to be safe in the water and still be able to enjoy the beautiful sea life that lives here in Hurghada. The advanced course has enabled me to dive safely up to 30m, and grow my skills from the open water course. I recommend Steve to anyone visiting Hurghada for diving! 🙂

I found Dive UK Hurghada through a Google search and after reading the website and reviews it felt like the right place for me; I'm so glad I chose it.
The communication, payment and course arrangements were easy. The taxi collected … More us from our hotel and dropped us off each day. The course was engaging and relaxed and I felt totally at ease and confident with Steve's knowledge and experience.
We were able to cover all our skills and even had a bit of extra time for a fun dive where we spotted a seahorse!
Overall a great experience with Dive UK Hurghada and would recommend it to anyone. -

My 12yr old went from nothing to completing his Advanced with Steve (assisted by Emma) on our recent holiday. I can thoroughly recommend the training. It was very thorough. More importantly my son really enjoyed the training which was explained … More brilliantly to him, so much he carried on to do his advanced. Steve and Emma were brilliant with him and he also said was an amazing experience. To round it off for me in 30 years of diving I still have a few things to see and on Emma's 1st guided dive she spotted me my 1st nudibranch on a shore dive. Boat dives were great too with one of the best swim throughs I have done in a long time. Nothing was too much hassle for Steve and team even when son was sick one day. Really shows how much they care. Thanks to Fadl too for the pickups. Steve offers some great package deals so definitely worth to get in touch before booking a holiday.

Junior advanced open water. 13 year old Son.
I decided to book with Steve and Dive UK Hurghada after seeing Facebook posts and following for a while. We weren’t disappointed. From the moment my Son met Steve he felt at ease and was encouraged … More to ask questions. Steve was interested in the type of experience he wanted and didn’t rush any of the course, time was spent on the areas that needed it. Couldn’t recommend enough. Higher kit was in great condition, clean and well maintained.
Thinking of booking another day diving just so work further on his buoyancy. -

Steve is a great instructor who made me really comfortable throughout the dive. He is very informative and supportive and helped ease my nerves when I was scared as this was my first time diving.

Scuba Steve (a.k.a. The Tanker) is a great person, whose main focus is giving you a great diving experience as part of a great holiday. As a dive professional you can see his passion for diving and teaching people to dive the right way. … More
Nothing is too much effort and from the moment you arrive he will be there to greet you any thing you need he will sort for you.
Unlike large dive centres Steve operates with smaller groups and is more often diving with you ensuring that you get the best experience you can from every dive.
I would highly recommend anyone coming to Hurghada, to approach Steve first for diving while visiting the Red Sea -

Just back from a diving holiday in the Red Sea and can not recommend Steve highly enough! First time diving again for many months and Steve could not do enough for us and was excellent throughout.
I had a bad experience on a previous dive … More in Malta and was rather nervous about diving again, but Steve was brilliant. His patience and superb instruction made me feel very comfortable, and I had my confidence back in no time.
Steve's passion for the ocean and love of what he does truly shines, and made the whole experience that much more memorable.
Professional, friendly, fun and just five stars all round.
Thanks Steve, we can't wait to see you again! -

I have no hesitation in recommending Steve and his team following our recent trip to Egypt. I had 6 days diving off a day boat from Hurghada with a variety of dive sites including wrecks and day trips to Luxor and Cairo/Pyramids. Steve … More is meticulous in his planning. Care and attention to detail was faultless, The safety and enjoyment of his customers is his top priority. This was my first time diving in the Red Sea and his enthusiasm for it definitely rubbed off on me. He is so passionate and knowledgeable about diving there. He was eager to help with any requests from the group and went the extra mile to make sure this happened. He tries his hardest to give you the best possible experience.
The day trips were expertly planned for us to get the most out of them. We were encouraged to enjoy the sights and were never rushed. I loved his homemade sandwiches on the Luxor trip! -

Just spent a fantastic 3 days with Steve scuba diving with my children and swimming with dolphins. My 13 year old completed his Junior Open Water - Steve was brilliant with him, very calm, patient, supportive and focused on safety. We took … More a private speedboat trip to swim with dolphins. Steve only works with local staff he trusts - our captain had 20 years experience and with their expertise and contacts we got to swim 4 times - it was incredible!
I’d highly recommend Steve, especially if you’ve got kids or nervous divers, or want a more personalised/bespoke experience. -

Unlike many dive boats that pack in large groups, Steve and team operate a more personalized … More experience with smaller groups, state of the art equipment, and bespoke options for those that want a true dive vacation. Also the boat is huge and has an amazing top deck lounge area for the picturesque cruises to the Red Sea dive sites.

For a long time I had a dream to do diving in the Red Sea. Last month there was a chance to go to Hurghada and I began to choose a company with whom I will do diving.
Honestly, after reading reviews on the Internet, I definitely chose to … More dive ONLY with a certified PADI instructor and ONLY with a foreigner. For trust.
So I found Dive UK Hurghada, I sent a request to which the friendly Steve responded. He told me and explained everything in the smallest detail, I felt that I would feel the most comfortable and safe diving with him.
Everything happened exactly as I thought.

Steve is a very good Instructor. I went diving with him as a guest and we did some good dives and saw some interesting fish. The Dive boat was very nice and clean and the crew were great and very friendly . Steve is very patient with his divers, when I'm in Hurghada next I will be definitely be visiting Steve and crew again, thanks for all your help. Paul
Wow, from the minute Steve picked us up I know he had a huge passion for Diving and the day did not disappoint, the crew and boat were fantastic and the lunch was very good. Steve is a great guide and puts safety first. I was so happy I booked a further 5 days and he gave me a great discount. Thanks Steve and ill be seeing you again.
First of all - it was awesome! I was interested in diving but I thought that it is possible only if you have certificate, but nothing like that. On the day before diving we had lesson in swimming pool where we were trained to use diving equipment. Thanks to Steve's the lesson was very calm, without stress or panic. I felt that I was in good hands so I was able to relax and enjoy the process. I enjoyed it so much I decided to do my Open Water course, Steve is a great instructor and very caring. nothing is to much trouble for him. Keep up the good work Steve.
My son wanted to try Scuba diving and we chose Steve because he used to teach children football in the UK so we thought he would take his time, we were right, Jayden loved it so much he stayed on to his first course. Steve was great with Jayden and even let me try to do it with no extra cost. Steve really does look after you, such a nice bloke and joked with everybody on the boat. Thanks Steve.
Thank you Steve for an amazing day with the dolphins, I never though I would ever swim with them and you made my dream come true, thank you. If you want to swim with dolphins Steve is your man, they love him and surrounded him for over 30 mins. They just kept coming back. Cant wait to come again and we will defo do the same trip. So worth the money.
Just a quick heads up to you Steve. Thanks for taking me on as a student, what a fantastic journey it has been. Reading up on what is needed is quite a bit daunting but you actually made it so much fun in practice! The step by step tuition and the right amount of detailed instruction and correction were very helpful, giving me the confidence to breeze through each task easily and calmly. Scuba Diving is a wonderful sport in a environment that is alien but fascinating, a true adventure into a different world. Now I can truly that world further with confidence, thanks buddy for making that possible.
I arrived in August 2020 for a 2 week holiday and had the good fortune to meet Steve who owns Dive UK Hurghada. I did try diving the year before but did not have a very good experience and was a bit reluctant to try it again. However after meeting Steve he laid all of my worries to rest. He is a total professional and is very patient with people he is teaching. I could not have completed my Open Water without him. A big thank you and I would highly recommend him.
