Why choose us for your PADI course in Egypt?
Learning to dive is a big moment. You may be excited, a little nervous, or returning after time away from the water. We take the time to understand how you feel and explain what comes next. Our British-owned and managed company puts personal care and safe diving at the heart of your experience.
Two students, one instructor
Small teaching groups mean more attention for you. There is space to work on the skills you find difficult, ask another question and feel comfortable before moving on.
Experienced Master Instructors
Your instructor brings years of teaching experience to your course. Clear explanations and patient support help you understand what you are doing and why it matters.
Families can learn together
Families can learn in a group of up to four where suitable for the course and each person’s needs. We will help you choose age-appropriate options so everyone receives the care they need.
Safety starts before you enter the water, with preparation, clear briefings and carefully maintained equipment. We want you to become a thoughtful, capable diver, rather than simply collect another certification.
Find the right course for you
New to diving? Our PADI Open Water course is the starting point for learning to dive. We teach its practical training from shore, allowing you to concentrate on your skills with your instructor close by. Read the course page for the schedule, swimming requirements and everything included.
Already qualified? Explore Advanced Open Water, Rescue Diver and our range of specialities in the course selection below. Tell us about your experience and what you would like to improve, and we will help you choose a useful next step.
Bringing children? Our children’s courses and junior options give younger learners a suitable introduction or a route towards certification. Each course has its own age and participation requirements, which we will check with you before booking.

There is no need to rush from one qualification to the next. Time spent enjoying dives and practising what you have learnt is valuable too.
Turn your PADI course into a diving holiday

You may be coming to Egypt for a course, but why stop when the training finishes? Stay a little longer, enjoy the Red Sea and put your new skills into practice with our team.
We can arrange a holiday around your chosen course, with accommodation, private airport transfers and extra diving brought together in a personal quote. It takes the pressure off planning everything separately and gives you more time to enjoy being here.
Save up to 20% on PADI courses when you book an accommodation and diving package. Ask us which offer applies to your chosen course and stay. Learning holidays are quoted individually, so we can explain the full price and inclusions before you book.
Travelling on your own, as a couple or with your family? We can help plan a stay that suits you, including a non-diving partner. Your course remains available on its own if you have already arranged your accommodation.

Keep learning after your course
Your confidence develops with experience. After your Open Water course, we recommend allowing time for two days of boat fun diving. You can practise your buoyancy, become more familiar with your equipment and enjoy the reefs without a training schedule to work through.
We offer special rates for fun diving after our Open Water course; ask us to include these days in your quote. They are an optional addition, and we will explain the cost when we plan your stay.
If you are already qualified, we can also combine further training with guided diving. Tell us what interests you and we will help you balance learning with time to enjoy the sea.
Planning your PADI course in Egypt
Contact us with your travel dates, the number of people learning and any previous diving experience. For children, include their ages. We will talk through the course, preparation and availability, then confirm your price and what is included.
For all our PADI courses, you book with a £200 deposit per person. Once your deposit is paid, we send your eLearning before you arrive, so you can complete the theory at home and focus on your practical skills here. Divemaster equipment and eLearning are purchased separately. We are available to help with questions as you prepare. Please check availability with us before booking flights for a course holiday.
Browse the course pages below for current prices, inclusions and requirements. You can also compare our diving and course prices and read our booking terms.
