Emergency First Response (EFR) Course — Marsa Alam
Emergency First Response Course in Marsa Alam
One to two days of hands-on CPR and first-aid training that anyone can take — diver or not, no prerequisites. Covers primary and secondary care for land and water emergencies, and is the medical prerequisite for the Rescue Diver course.
More About This Trip
Emergency First Response is built for everyone — divers, partners, parents, travellers — with no prerequisites and no diving involved. Across one to two focused days you learn Primary Care (life-threatening emergencies: scene assessment, CPR, rescue breathing, choking, serious bleeding, shock and spinal-injury awareness) and Secondary Care (injury and illness assessment, bandaging and splinting while help is on the way). Everything is practised physically on mannequins and with partners. For divers there's a practical bonus: a current EFR certificate (within 24 months) is the required medical prerequisite for the PADI Rescue Diver course, so many students take EFR and Rescue back-to-back.

Dive Safe Package — medical care is on us
Diving with us includes medical care from licensed physicians — before your dive, on the day, and after your trip has ended. If anything comes up once you are back at your hotel, you are still ours to look after: call us and we arrange the doctor, at no extra cost.
A dive medical fitness check before you get in the water is entirely up to you. Some divers simply like the reassurance — say the word and we arrange it with a licensed physician at no extra cost, whenever suits you. And if the physician advises against diving, we refund your booking in full.
This is the whole price
The PADI certification fee is already inside the price above — along with your equipment, instructor and course materials. Worth checking before you compare: some dive centres quote the course on its own and add the manual and certification at the desk, typically €90–€130. Others include it, as we do. So compare what each price covers, not just the number.
What is genuinely not included is listed above, in full — nothing else is added at the boat.
