Before you book
Three short answers people ask before they write. Then you can book the day that fits.
Can I dive in Hurghada if I have never dived?Yes. You do not need a card in your pocket and you do not need to swim like a champion. On the first day we do not chase metres. We teach you to breathe underwater and we stay next to you.Why not the hotel boat?The hotel desk sells a seat on a packed boat. That day can be fine. It is also loud, timed, and you share the guide with a dozen cameras. A private day is quieter. The plan bends around you.A PADI course in Hurghada without a factory groupThe course exists. The group stays small. This is not a factory that opens the water in three days and forgets your face. You work with Reda, and the water here is the classroom.
