دورة PADI Deep Diver التخصصية

Some of the Red Sea's most spectacular scenery starts where the recreational limit for most divers ends: the plateaus at 20-35 metres, the gorgonian forests on the deep drop-offs, the wreck sterns resting past 30. The PADI Deep Diver specialty extends your certified limit to 40 metres and — more importantly — teaches you to use that depth with judgement.

Over two days and four training dives, each one progressively deeper, you learn the discipline of deep diving: planning depth and time precisely, managing your gas with generous reserves, pacing your descent and ascent, and using a safety-stop routine that becomes second nature. Your instructor demonstrates how colours vanish and objects change appearance at depth, and runs simple comparison tasks so you experience — safely and under supervision — how gas narcosis quietly slows your thinking. Hurghada's stepped walls and deep plateaus are ideal training ground, because every deep dive here ends in shallow, sun-drenched coral for the safety stop.

The prerequisite is an Adventure Diver rating or higher with a minimum age of 15. Equipment, PADI materials, certification fee, lunches on board and transfers within Hurghada are all included. Deep Diver pairs perfectly with the Enriched Air specialty for longer bottom times, and it unlocks the famous deep sites of the Red Sea and beyond — from offshore pinnacles to the great wrecks that rest below 30 metres.
