Diving

Since the beginning of the 90’s we organize dive courses and trips in Dahab and since 1999 we had our own Dive Center in Marine Garden Camp, next door to Sindbad Camp.
Since we moved to Sindbad Camp we are no longer a Dive Center, but because we work together with a Dive Center next door we still can offer you dive courses and guided dives...
We provide you courses in English, Dutch and Arabic.

In and around Dahab we mostly dive from the shore. We drive to the dive sites in Jeeps and Pick-ups.

And to be honest, you don’t come to Dahab for the big fish. The beauty of the dive sites is the great variation, the corals and the “small life” like nudibranches and seahorse like creatures.
In the North you can dive the Bell’s-Blue-Hole drift dive over a deep drop-off; a bit more South is the Canyon an attraction and South of Dahab the Islands offer you a coral garden as sweet as a symphony.
Less than 100 meters of the camp you find the Light-House Reef, the place to do your course or to do your Fresh-up Dive or to make a Night Dive. But it is also a site where divers who “saw it all” make dive after dive and come home with the most enthusiastic stories and brag about which unknown creature they saw and photographed.

Since a couple of years there are some dive boats in Dahab. When the weather is fine and there are enough interested people we arrange a boat trip to Gabr-el-Bint. A holiday in a holiday.

There are some things we hate. For instance: overfull Jeeps, big groups that go diving with one guide and/or many divers in the water. We avoid this by using an extra Jeep and a limited amount of divers in a course or guided dive.
