PADI Rescue Course Egypt: Look beyond your own dive
Our PADI Rescue Course Egypt helps you notice the people around you and think about problems before they grow. It is a rewarding next step for divers who want to be more useful buddies, whether or not they plan to become professionals.
The course asks you to think, communicate and work with others. That can feel demanding at first. Our PADI Master Instructors explain the exercises, demonstrate the skills and give you space to practise without feeling rushed.
What you practise on the PADI Rescue Course Egypt
Training starts with self-rescue and develops your response to other divers who need help. You practise assisting tired or panicked divers, responding to an unresponsive diver and managing rescue situations under your instructor’s guidance.
Later, scenarios bring the separate skills together. The aim is to make thoughtful decisions and communicate clearly. Afterwards, we talk through what happened, what worked and what you can improve. These discussions are an important part of learning.
Two training days, with first aid if needed
Rescue training takes two days from shore. Complete your eLearning before the practical sessions. If you need Emergency First Response, allow a separate shore-based day for that course. EFR has its own price and is not included in the Rescue fee.
You need qualifying CPR and first-aid training from within the past 24 months. Send us any existing certificate details so we can check them. The diving entry route is Advanced Open Water, or Adventure Diver including the Underwater Navigation Adventure Dive; contact us about other qualifications.
Arrive comfortable in the water
We recommend excellent buoyancy and control, plus at least 50 fun dives before taking Rescue with us. The 50 dives are our recommendation, not a PADI entry requirement. This experience helps you focus on another diver while staying comfortable yourself.
Tell us honestly about your recent diving and anything that makes you nervous. We can discuss preparation before you commit. Safety comes first, and certification depends on meeting the requirements rather than simply attending for two days.
Small groups and experienced instructors
We normally teach two students per instructor. Suitable families can learn together in groups of up to four, subject to each person meeting the course requirements. Children under 15 learn one-to-one unless they choose to train with a sibling or family member.
Our instructors have years of experience helping divers progress, including people who feel nervous about a new challenge. We explain, listen and give useful feedback. If further training is needed, we discuss the time and cost before arranging it.
Make your course part of a diving holiday
Book your PADI Rescue Course Egypt as part of a diving holiday with us. We can bring your course, accommodation, transfers and extra diving into one personally arranged plan. Tell us your travel dates and what you would like from the holiday.
We confirm the items and costs included in your own package before you book. You can also book the course on its own if you have already arranged accommodation. Send the hotel details so we can check transfer arrangements.
Stay for two more days on the boat
Use two additional boat days to enjoy your diving while putting your improved awareness and buddy communication into practice. These are normal guided dives, not unsupervised rescue exercises.
Explore our daily diving programme and ask us to add two days to your quote. Extra boat diving is booked separately from the course. We agree suitable dates around training, your progress and your travel plans.

PADI Rescue Course Egypt: your questions
Is Rescue only for future Divemasters?
No. Many divers take it to become more capable buddies. It is also an important step for those considering professional training.
Is EFR part of the Rescue price?
No. If you need EFR, we arrange a separate day and confirm its additional price. An existing qualifying first-aid certificate may meet the requirement.
