Amazing Company and Instructor - Amazing company and instructor. Emma was a total professional and gave us a lot of comfort knowing our ‘adult’ children were in her capable hands for the Open Water certification. I also completed an Advanced OW refresher. We also booked a dive day after passing where my wife and daughter came along and snorkelled. Would highly recommended if you’re coming to Hurghada and are looking to learn to dive to use this company.

The best dive centre we have experienced! - We discovered Dive UK Hurghada and Steve through Facebook. As already qualified divers, we were looking for a reputable dive shop in the Red Sea for our daughter who is 14 to get her Advanced Open Water cert.
We couldn’t have been more happy with the service, communication and interaction that we got from Steve before and during our stay, and with Wassam who led a lot of our dives.
I would recommend Dive UK Hurghada to anyone wanting a first class experience. Steve loves his work and makes sure everyone has the best experience possible. Yes, you may get cheaper, but you may not have the same experience or the peace of mind knowing your child is in as such safe hands when she is diving alone completing her PADI AOW.
The dive boats that Steve selects are spacious with attentive crew, limited numbers and good food provided. The experience is second to none.
I enjoyed every single moment from being picked up from our hotel to being being dropped off at the end of 2 or 3 amazing dives with the most passionate and experienced team. They made our daughter fall back in love with diving, and for me, I arrived as someone who liked diving but left as a diver!
We can’t wait to come back. Thanks Steve and Wassam, see you soon!

Best Diving in Hurghada - DIVEUKHurghada
Had the best week of my life, learning and diving in Hurghada with an English instructor. I was planning on doing the Open Water course and two days of fun diving, but the course was so fun and informative I decided to do my Advanced Open Water straight after. The first day of my advanced open water we practiced things like underwater navigation skills and fish identification. Then we refined these skills and dived the fascinating Excalibur wreck 21m below. Then on the second day we did 2 dives from a lovely boat, with lunch in between them, all included in the course. Before I came to Hurghada I had looked around many dive centres before finding Steve, and all of them provided me with misinformation and hidden costs. If you are learning to dive in Hurghada, or are already an experienced diver, go with Steve at DiveUK. You will not be disappointed.

Open & Advanced PADI - Open water & advanced open water course.
Came on my own as a solo woman and was paired up with another Brit who was doing the same. Felt safe and well looked after from the resort to the dive site and back. Steve and Maged were great, very professional and took their time with me. I was pretty nervous as I'm a bit claustrophobic, hate getting water in my eyes, and usually struggle breathing through my mouth (nightmare customer) but after the first couple of dives I started to feel comfortable and really enjoyed myself.
In the advanced course we did a wreck and two days from the boat visiting some coral reefs. On our dive Steve also got some snaps of us underwater which left us with some great memories.
Beautiful experience x

Great experience, great guides and instructors. - I booked a week of diving with Steve and Emma earlier this year and loved every minute of it. The dive sights were great and Steve and Emma took very good care of my group. I also had the chance to do a deep dive cert with Steve. The instruction was very professional and competent and quite enjoyable on top of it. You can also tell that both of Emma and Steve are not only passionate about diving but also making sure that their customers have a great time. The daily diving felt more like a bunch of friends on a day out rather then an assembly line diving operation. Emma is also a great steward of the seas. After a week of diving we decided to do a bit of reef clean up on one of the shore dive sights and managed to pull around 8 bags of trash off the dive sight and despose of it properly. They really live the motto 'see the world and leave only bubbles.'

Amazing Experience Diving Red Sea. - Okay where do I start? possibly from inception of the most awesome trip of my life… and for someone that is well travelled I don’t say that lightly. I was introduced to Steve’s and (DIVE Hurgada) Team by a mutual friend and my dive boss unfortunately he is no longer with us.
I saw a post on Steve’s page for a live-aboard Northern Wrecks and Reefs. My gills were a little dry following covid so I asked my UK dive buddy Steve YOLO was his reply and we booked immediately.. we managed to get very reasonable flights from Luton to Hurgada by Wizz Air 32kg luggage prefect for dive gear. I recommend getting the lounge and parking deal.
We arrived in Hurgada and was met by Steve’s driver who was very present and spoke very good English on route he gave us a few tips.
We arrived at the boat and was greeted by the crew, who took our bags to our room. From that point it was 5* service, the full trip including some amazing food.
The Diving was breathtaking my buddy has been to the Red Sea a few times he commented about the professionalism in particular dive briefings. Khalid one of 5 instructors and our dive instructor presented these which included videos and very precise information about the dive
one that will be ingrained was his thistlegorm brief.
I’m looking to book in 2023

Great experience - My husband and me dove at the end of October with Dive UK. The experience was great. The guides and Steve were really friendly and we had a really good time. On top, the boat was really comfortable and the food was delicious. Thank you so much

Padi advanced open water - Completed my Advanced PADI open water certification with Steve and Emma at Dive UK Hurghada. Great experience, the dive sites were like being in an aquarium! Steve personally picked us up from our hotel each morning which was hugely appreciated. Prepare for a bit of waiting around before the boat heads out, but the pros of getting there early are that you get the best spot on the boat and can have the pick of the rental kit if you need.
Would definitely recommend and would go with Steve again if / when we go back!

The most amazing 6 days 🤿 - I came along to Hurghada with my partner who completed his advanced diver training last year with Steve and wanted to go again. I’d only had some brief experience in diving having done a few discovery dives on holidays over the years, and with Steve’s training I managed to complete my Open Water and then going on to do my Advanced within the space of a few days.
Steve’s a great teacher, really detailed and meticulous with what he teaches and is so supportive and patient with you. He takes what he does very seriously while still managing to have you in stitches even while you’re under water 🤣 Emma is also amazing and made me feel so confident when leading our dives and is really passionate about diving and sealife.
Both are hilarious and really lovely people and made the 6 days of diving so enjoyable. Can’t recommend Dive UK Hurghada enough!! We also booked our trips to Luxor and Cairo through Steve which were great value for money so if you’re wanting to do a bit of everything he can sort it. Thanks so much for everything guys 🙏🏼
