Our Discover Scuba Diving program is the perfect introduction to the underwater world for anyone who has never dived before.
No certification or previous experience is required. Together with your SSI instructor, you'll learn a few essential scuba diving skills before exploring the Red Sea in a safe, relaxed, and enjoyable environment.
During your experience, you'll dive to a maximum depth of 12 meters, with each dive lasting approximately 25–30 minutes, depending on your air consumption and comfort.
At the end of the program, you'll receive your SSI Basic Diver certification, and your first training dive will be credited toward the SSI Open Water Diver course if you choose to continue your diving education.
Whether you're traveling alone, with friends, or as a family, your first dive is about building confidence, discovering a new world, and creating memories you'll never forget.
