PADI Scuba Diver Course — Marsa Alam
PADI Scuba Diver Course in Marsa Alam
The fast-track certification: about half the theory and dives of the full Open Water course, earning you a licence to dive to 12 metres under the supervision of a PADI professional. Perfect when you're short on holiday time but want a real, lifelong qualification. Upgrades to full Open Water later with full credit.
More About This Trip
The PADI Scuba Diver rating is the answer to a common holiday problem: you want a genuine certification, not just a taster, but don't have three or four days to spare. Over two to three days you cover the first sections of PADI dive theory, master the core confined-water skills (mask clearing, regulator recovery, buoyancy) and complete open-water training dives on Marsa Alam's gentle reefs. The certification qualifies you to dive worldwide to 12 metres under the supervision of a PADI professional — which covers most guided holiday diving. Everything counts forward: whenever you're ready you can upgrade to the full Open Water Diver rating with no repeated work. Minimum age 10; basic swimming ability and normal good health required.

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.
