Discover Diving Sites
Originally, Hurghada was just a small fishing village, but today it presents itself as one of the most popular holiday destinations in Egypt. Hurghada was home to the first commercial diving centre on the Red Sea. It is an ideal starting point for diving in the Red Sea and for diving safaris to the southern and northern parts of the Red Sea.
Due to its fantastic selection of dive sites, many of which can be reached within 30-60 minutes by boat, Hurghada is extremely popular with beginners and advanced divers. Hurghada's dive sites promise an abundance of underwater life and a great variety of corals. Easy access to safe, sheltered ergs and reefs close to shore and world-class underwater visibility make Hurghada the ideal place for the diver, whether inexperienced or experienced. Around Hurghada you will also find many dive sites and wrecks. The spectacular national park around the Giftun Islands offers amazing drift dives and coral walls that will impress even the most experienced diver.
