Best experience ever - Dive UK taught me more in 1 month than a lifetime of school. Recently, I was informed by my school that i had to do a 1 month project on anything pertaining to ‘life experience’. I felt directionless and decided to call up Steve to see if he would give me guidance, he immediately offered support when needed and within days i had easily organised my trip without any hassle. I was told i would shadow under steve as he imparted his diving wisdom, as well as learn what it means to be an instructor and run a successful business, alongside doing my Rescue EFR and 3 specialty courses. Dive UK delivered everything i could have hoped for and more. After a scary and jumbled trip through multiple airports, i was immediately welcomed by Steve and made to feel like family. My accommodation was clean with respectful, catering staff that were at my disposal for any minor issue or need. Steve as an instructor is uniquely perfect, equipped with a breadth of knowledge like no other and the perfectionist mentality that any diver ,no matter how experienced, could learn from. Every step is laid out for you and by following his exact instruction you will succeed no doubt. Observing him teach and guide new divers was worth a million PADI courses. Every mistake of mine was noted and ironed out and in a caring yet tough way. Steve speaks in a concise manner carefully illustrating each step and is willing to go at your pace until you learn. Everything was made easy by Dive UK. I also want to mention the wonderful second instructor Emma, whose zest for life and bubbly personality makes every day on the boat a dream. She is a calm, well mannered and observant diver with a keen eye and a big heart. Definitely worth coming back for. I came for a life experience and had very high expectations, Dive UK delivered everything i could have hoped for and more. I could feel the love they have for diving and the passion they have for students every single day. I can go home a very happy man with a newfound mentality and appreciation for life, as well as memories that will last a lifetime. All thanks to Dive UK

Amazing dive experience with very knowledgeable dive instructors. - Amazing diving experience in Hurghada Egypt. Steve and Emma are one of the best diving instructors and guides. As a first time diver I felt very comfortable in the water and that is because of their professional teaching skills and enthusiasm. The days on the boat were well organized, with equipment available and lunch provided. They took us to beautiful diving sites in the Red Sea. Overall a great experience learning how to dive and enjoying the first dives in the Red Sea. Steve and Emma you were amazing, thank you so much and hope to see you soon!

Exceptional Diving Experience with Dive UK Hurghada in the Red Sea - My experience with Dive UK Hurghada was nothing short of spectacular. From the time of booking to the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with professionalism, warmth, and a genuine passion for diving. I booked my dive holiday with Dive Uk Hurghada late 2023 for Sep 2024. Steve was extremely helpful with the organising, from the accommodation to the airport transfer and of course each day of diving. During our stay we also booked the private trip from Hurghada to Cairo museum and the pyramids which again Dive Uk Hurghada can organise. So in summary for the booking all we had to do is book our flights inform of the dates we were arriving and returning and they done the rest, perfect 👌. On arrival at the airport in Hurghada we were met with the lovely Emma who would be my dive guide for the 8 days I booked, with 2 dives each day. Which then transferred us to our hotel. We chose to stay in an all inclusive hotel as my wife does not dive but was still welcomed onboard the dive boat, which she decided to joined us, for some diving days, for a small fee. I opted to travel with all my own dive gear which I prefer but they can provide as much or as little equipment that’s required. Emma would collect us from the hotel each morning to transfer us to the dive boat. Emma is extremely knowledgeable in diving and very patient with new and experienced divers and also has a great personality and is, so easy to talk to in gaining knowledge for diving. I also decided under Emma’s instruction to complete my Advance Open Water certification, so glad I did. Emma was excellent at taking me through each step for the certification, and passing the qualification, exactly to the day I passed my open water a year previously. Thanks again Emma, so grateful for all your help and guidance. The Red Sea itself is a diver’s paradise, with crystal-clear waters, vibrant coral reefs, and a wide array of marine life. Dive UK Hurghada took this experience to the next level and are true experts in the local dive sites. Whether it was exploring intricate coral formations, swimming alongside colorful fish, or encountering larger marine creatures like turtles and dolphins, every dive felt like a unique adventure. During my dives we did encounter, turtles, dolphins and incredibly, a seahorse. What really sets Dive UK Hurghada apart is their attention to detail. The team was highly accommodating, tailoring the dives to everyone in the group’s experience levels and preferences. They provided in-depth briefings before each dive and were always attentive to individual needs underwater. For both seasoned divers and beginners, they struck the perfect balance between ensuring safety (which they pride themselves on and mainly accommodating smaller groups) and allowing for plenty of exploration and fun. The dive boat “Blue” was spacious, clean, and comfortable, making the surface intervals between dives just as enjoyable. The crew was incredibly friendly, offering refreshments and creating a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere on board. The entire days on board felt well-paced, with ample time to enjoy the Red Sea’s stunning beauty both above and below the water. I also want to highlight how eco-conscious the team is. They emphasized the importance of preserving the underwater environment, and it was clear they are committed to sustainable diving practices. It’s refreshing to dive with a company that genuinely cares about the marine ecosystem. In summary, Dive UK Hurghada provided an unforgettable diving experience and they also provide snorkelling experiences in one of the world’s most beautiful diving destinations. Whether you’re looking to explore the wonders of the Red Sea or improve your diving skills, I couldn’t recommend them more highly. I’m already planning my next trip back!

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
