3 independent reviews for Family learn to scuba dive holidays

We are really pleased that you enjoyed the diving and that you found us friendly and welcoming. Dahab is not perfect as it is still a very young community, therefore a lot of what we expect from a developed country is still in its early days here. Rubbish, does not come exclusively from Dahab, but is brought in on the tide and wind from surrounding countries. Some of the ‘broken coral’ at Islands for example, is in fact due to earthquake damage and not divers. But diver related damage is one of the reasons that we employ a max ratio of 4-1 divers; in fact you had your own guide even though you were only 3 in your family, and this eradicates any potential damage as well as enhancing the dive experience. We have always paid our dive instructors above the ‘normal rate’ thus ensuring that we only have the best guides and instructors. But tips are always a nice way to show your appreciation. We are committed to improving the situation, both with our own efforts including; regular clean ups, both on land as well as in water pick up using nets supplied with every diver. We also are affiliated with several clean up groups such as; EcoDahab, HEPCA, Dahab Defenders and the Bedouin Clean Up group. We spend a lot to make sure equipment is of the highest standard and regularly replace and upgrade our dive equipment, however sometimes fails happen due to the conditions we work in ie sand or grit entering the o rings. It is however very rare and we always have a backup plan just in case.
