PADI Wreck Diving Course in Hurghada

The PADI Wreck Course Hurghada helps you explore wrecks with greater confidence and care. Learn with our PADI Master Instructors as you develop the planning, buoyancy and awareness needed for responsible wreck diving.

Wrecks offer much more than an underwater photograph. Their structure, history and marine life give you plenty to discover. However, they also bring hazards that you need to recognise and avoid. We take time to explain these before you put your skills into practice.

During your training, you learn how to survey a wreck, plan a route and move without disturbing the bottom. You also discuss suitable equipment, gas planning and the limits of your training. Throughout the course, we give you patient support and plenty of opportunity to ask questions.

You must be at least 15 and hold PADI Adventure Diver, Advanced Open Water Diver or a qualifying certification. Before booking, tell us your age, qualifications and recent diving experience so we can confirm your starting point.

Your PADI Wreck Course Hurghada, step by step

  • Plan your course with us. First, send your qualifications, recent experience, dates and accommodation. Together, we check your eligibility and discuss any skills you would like help with.
  • Complete your PADI e-learning. After booking and your deposit, we send your learning materials with instructions. Complete the knowledge development before practical training, with our help if you need it.
  • Day one — shore diving. Review your learning, prepare your equipment and begin your wreck skills. Our shore training uses the Suzanna wreck when conditions are suitable. You practise observing the wreck, recognising hazards and controlling your position in the water.
  • Day two — shore diving. Continue your wreck training from shore and build on your earlier practice. Your instructor chooses suitable dives according to your experience, progress and conditions. Across both days, you complete four training dives.
  • Review your progress. Across the two-day course, complete four training dives and the required knowledge and skills. Once you meet every requirement, you receive your PADI Wreck Diver speciality certification.

We never rush your learning. If you need extra training, we discuss the next steps and any additional costs before arranging it. The daily plan may change with conditions and your progress.

Personal support for your wreck diving course

Your confidence matters to us. Before each dive, we explain what you will practise and why it matters. Afterwards, we talk through your progress so you understand what went well and what to work on next.

Our PADI Master Instructors normally teach two students at a time. Suitable family groups can learn together with up to four students, provided everyone meets the requirements. Your instructor also follows the supervision limits for each activity.

Wreck training covers surveying, route planning and ways to avoid disturbing silt or marine life. You also learn about lines and reels, suitable equipment and the extra planning involved in wreck diving. Any entry into a wreck depends on the site, your skills and the course limits.

Afterwards, we recommend two days of fun diving from the boat to practise and enjoy your skills. These are a separate booking. Explore our daily diving in Hurghada, or ask about a suitable Salem Express wreck trip.

PADI Wreck Course Hurghada — your questions answered

Who can take the PADI Wreck Course Hurghada?

You must be at least 15 and hold PADI Adventure Diver, Advanced Open Water Diver or a qualifying certification. First, send us your qualifications and recent experience. We can then confirm your eligibility and discuss any preparation you may need.

What will I learn on the PADI Wreck Course Hurghada?

You learn to assess a wreck, identify hazards, plan a route and manage your position in the water. In addition, you practise techniques that help avoid disturbing silt and marine life. Your instructor introduces wreck equipment and line use within the course limits. For an overview, see the PADI Wreck Diver course.

Does certification let me enter any wreck?

No. Wrecks vary greatly, so every dive must remain within your training, experience and the conditions. Any penetration training is subject to the instructor’s assessment and PADI course limits. This speciality does not qualify you for unrestricted wreck penetration or technical diving.

Does the Wreck course increase my depth limit?

No. This course focuses on wreck diving skills and does not replace a depth qualification. Your dives must stay within your existing depth limits and experience. If you want further deep-diving training, ask us about the separate PADI Deep course.

How are the four training dives arranged?

The planned course lasts two days, both from shore, with four training dives in total. Training uses the Suzanna wreck when suitable. However, the final plan depends on conditions and your progress. We explain the arrangements before you begin.

Should I complete e-learning before arriving?

Yes, please finish the required knowledge development before your practical training. PADI e-learning is included in your course price. After booking and your deposit, we send the materials with instructions. Meanwhile, you can contact us if anything is unclear.

What if I have not dived recently or feel nervous?

Tell us before booking so we can discuss your confidence and experience. A refresher or some easier dives may help you prepare. Throughout your course, we give you patient guidance and time to practise. If you need extra training, we explain the options and costs first.

Are equipment, meals and hotel transfers included?

Equipment, e-learning, certification, marine fees and taxes are included. Both course days are from shore, so lunch is not included. Transfers are included within 2 km of the relevant activity facility. For accommodation farther away, we quote any additional taxi charge before booking.

How do I book my PADI Wreck Course Hurghada?

Send us your dates, age, qualifications and accommodation details. Once we confirm your course, pay a £200 deposit per person by Wise or bank transfer. This forms part of your course price. Then pay the balance in cash on the first morning. We do not accept cards. Please read our booking terms before paying.

Can I combine wreck training with other diving?

Yes. We can discuss another PADI speciality course, extra diving or a diving holiday in Hurghada. Each course is separate, and we confirm the full quote before booking. Optional trips, accommodation and airport transfers are priced separately.
