اكتشف سكوبا أو غواص سكوبا أو المياه المفتوحة: أي دورة للمبتدئين للحجز

يواجه كل مبتدئ في الغردقة نفس الاختيار الثلاثي، والأسماء وحدها لا تجعل من الواضح أيهما. ها هي المقارنة، جنبًا إلى جنب.

نقاط البداية الثلاث

اكتشف الغوص تحت الماء - التجربة

Not a certification, and you always dive with an instructor beside you afterward too, on any repeat dive. It exists to answer one question: do you actually enjoy breathing underwater? If you already know the answer is yes, skip it — it is not required before Open Water and does not save you time if you are certain. Full walkthrough of the day in what Discover Scuba actually involves.

Scuba Diver — Open Water, stopped halfway

A genuine PADI certification, not a trial — but capped at 12 metres and always requiring a dive professional present. It exists for people short on days: two to three days instead of three to four, and every bit of it counts if you later decide to finish the full Open Water course. Currently runs in Marsa Alam, from EUR 272.

Open Water Diver — the one most people actually want

Three to four days: theory (finishable online before you fly), confined-water skills, four open-water dives. You come out certified to 18 metres, worldwide, for life — no professional required once you are qualified, just a buddy. Runs in Hurghada from EUR 326, age 10+.

So which one, honestly?

• Genuinely unsure you will like diving: Discover Scuba Diving first.
• Certain you want to dive, but only have two or three days: Scuba Diver, upgradeable later.
• Certain, and have three to four days: go straight to Open Water Diver — it is the same total time as Discover Scuba plus Scuba Diver, for one certification instead of two half-measures.

Book your starting point

Discover Scuba Diving, Scuba Diver, or Open Water Diver — whichever fits your days and your certainty. All three include full equipment and a PADI professional throughout.

Can I upgrade later if I start with the cheaper option?

From Discover Scuba Diving, yes in most programme versions — ask when you book whether your specific dive counts toward Open Water. From Scuba Diver, always — it upgrades to full Open Water Diver with nothing repeated, just the additional skills and dives added on.
