Extras: A certification course and optional underwater photos or videos are not included.
YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
A little clarity.
Which introductory diving option is cheaper, and what do couples or families pay?+
Our two-dive Discover Scuba trip and Orange Bay with one introductory dive both have a €30 fare for ages 11+, €15 for ages 4–10 and no excursion fare for ages 0–3. Two adults pay €60; with one child aged 4–10 the base total is €75, or €90 with two children in that age group. These totals precede applicable transfers and optional purchases. Child fares do not guarantee permission to dive; confirm the participation plan for each traveler. Choose two introductory dives on this trip, or island time with one dive on the separate Orange Bay program; the adult base fare is the same.
Do I pay extra for diving equipment or underwater photos?+
The standard package includes diving equipment, professional supervision, two introductory dives for eligible participants, lunch, drinks and Hurghada transfers. Underwater photos, videos and personal purchases are optional extras; a certification course is not included. For hotels outside Hurghada, request the exact transfer quote instead of applying another tour’s supplement.
Do I need a diving license?+
No. This is an introductory experience for beginners.
How many dives are included?+
Two introductory dives.
How long and how deep is each dive?+
Exact dive time and depth depend on safety, conditions and the participant; the instructor makes the final decision.
What is the minimum age?+
Intro diving is commonly available from around age 10, but the operator/instructor must confirm eligibility before diving.
Can I dive if I have a medical condition or am pregnant?+
Diving may not be suitable. Medical/safety screening applies and the diving professional has final authority.
What information do you need for hotel pickup?+
Provide your hotel name, room number when available, and a reachable phone or WhatsApp number. Your exact pickup time is confirmed after the hotel details are checked; the activity time is not necessarily your hotel pickup time.
Can you accommodate dietary requirements?+
Tell us about allergies or dietary requirements before booking so the available meal options can be checked. A special menu should be confirmed in advance.
Does paying for the trip guarantee that I can dive?+
No. The diving team must approve your participation after the required safety and medical screening. Tell us about relevant conditions before booking so eligibility can be checked in advance.
