Your diving holiday in Egypt, made around you
Are you looking for a diving holiday in Egypt? Start with our diving holidays in Hurghada, or let us put together something just for you.
You might want a week on the dive boat, a few days exploring Cairo and Luxor, or a longer stay with time for both. Tell us what you have in mind. We design our own holidays, so we can plan your diving, accommodation, transfers and trips around you.
There is no need to have it all worked out. I’m Steve, the owner of Dive UK Hurghada. We can have a chat about what you enjoy, what you would like to see and how much time you have. Then we can start putting your holiday together.

Ideas for your diving holiday in Egypt
These are a few ideas to get us started. You can choose one, combine them, or tell us about something different. Your holiday does not have to fit a set number of nights or diving days.
Diving in Hurghada
Spend your days exploring the Red Sea with our team, then enjoy your evenings at your own pace. Choose how many days you would like on the boat and leave room for a rest day if you fancy one.
Diving, Cairo and Luxor
Make time for Egypt above the water as well. We can include private trips to Cairo and Luxor alongside your diving, with the travel and accommodation planned together.
More of the Red Sea
If you would like to travel further south, speak to us about including Marsa Alam. We will talk through the options and the time you need, so the holiday feels comfortable rather than rushed.
A diving holiday in Egypt that suits you
Travelling on your own, as a couple or with a group of friends? You are very welcome. Some people want to dive every day, while others want a mix of diving, sightseeing and time to relax. Therefore, we can plan for different interests within the same group.
For example, you might start in Cairo, spend time in Luxor and finish your holiday diving in Hurghada. Or you might prefer to stay in Hurghada and add a private trip. We will discuss the route, travel time and costs with you before you decide.
Whether you are coming from the UK, the USA or elsewhere, speak to us before booking flights. We can help you plan the arrival and departure points around your holiday. If there is something you cannot see here, please ask. We will do our very best to arrange it.
Where to stay on your Egypt diving holiday
Our Hurghada holiday packages use self-catering studio apartments close to restaurants and shops. All have a fridge, and some have small kitchen facilities. The marina is around ten minutes’ walk away.
If you would prefer a hotel, or need accommodation in more than one place, tell us what you are looking for. Then we can discuss the options and include the agreed accommodation in your personal quote.
We will also share local advice and places we enjoy ourselves. Sometimes it is the little things, such as knowing where to get breakfast or finding a nice restaurant, that help you settle in.
Small groups and safety first
On our guided fun dives in Hurghada, we take no more than four scuba divers per instructor. We do not do big groups. This gives us time to look after your comfort, answer your questions and give you the attention you deserve.
Our full-time PADI Master Instructors bring years of teaching experience and hundreds of courses taught. Before each dive, we explain the plan and safety procedures. We choose dive sites according to the weather, currents and the group. Safety always comes first.
If you feel nervous or have not dived for a while, please tell us when we plan your holiday. We can talk through the support or refresher you need. Read more about our approach to dive boat safety.
Learn to dive as part of your holiday
You do not need to be a qualified diver to get in touch. We can design a learn-to-dive holiday around the PADI Open Water course, with time to learn at a comfortable pace.
After your course, we recommend two days of fun diving on the boat. This gives you time to put your new skills into practice, gain experience and enjoy being a diver. We can include these days when we plan your stay.
Let’s plan your diving holiday in Egypt
- Tell us about your holiday. Share your dates, who is travelling, your diving experience and the places you would like to visit. A rough budget helps us suggest suitable options.
- We put the plans together. We will discuss availability, accommodation, diving, trips and transfers, then give you a personal quote with clear inclusions and any extras.
- Confirm the details with us. Check availability with us before booking flights. Once your plans are agreed, we will explain the booking steps and payment arrangements for your holiday.
Every holiday on this page is quoted individually. That is why we explain the full cost of what we have agreed, with no surprises when you arrive.

Your Egypt diving holiday questions answered
Can I choose my own holiday length and diving days?
Yes. Tell us how long you would like to stay and how much diving you want to do. We design the holiday around your plans, rather than asking you to fit a fixed itinerary.
Can I combine diving with Cairo and Luxor?
Yes. We can arrange private trips and plan the travel, accommodation and diving together. We will help you allow enough time for each part, so you can enjoy the places you came to see.
Can you include Marsa Alam?
Yes, we can discuss trips down to Marsa Alam as part of your holiday. Tell us what you would like to do there, and we will explain the options, travel arrangements and cost.
Can my non-diving partner come with me?
Of course. We can plan a mix of activities and free time for both of you. Your quote will reflect the diving and other activities each person chooses.
Do you arrange holidays for solo travellers and groups?
Yes. We welcome individuals, couples and groups. Let us know the number of people travelling and your room preferences. We will explain any single-room supplement in your quote.
Can you arrange a hotel instead of a studio?
Yes. Tell us about your preferred location, facilities and budget. We can discuss suitable accommodation and build the agreed option into your holiday.
Are flights included?
You book your own flights. Please speak to us first so we can check availability and agree the best arrival and departure points for your itinerary. We can then arrange the agreed transfers around your flight details.
How much will my diving holiday in Egypt cost?
It depends on your dates, accommodation, diving and trips. For a starting point, see our Hurghada holiday package prices. For a different itinerary, contact us and we will give you a detailed personal quote.
