Aquarium Red Sea - Hurghada

Diving from Hurghada City

Aquarium Red Sea Diving Center sits in Hurghada City, Egypt, and describes itself as the premier scuba diving destination in the Red Sea. It's a PADI Resort with 12 PADI instructors on staff, running courses and activities pitched at everyone from complete beginners to experienced adventurers.

The teaching side is the heart of the operation. Whether you want a quick intro dive or an in-depth certification course, the certified instructors provide the training and knowledge needed to become a safe and confident diver. Course options span PADI Scuba Diving, PADI Snorkelling, PADI First Aid – EFR and Adaptive Diving, backed by an onsite training pool and classroom.

Daily diving trips head out to vibrant coral reefs and rare marine life, with sharks, whales, turtles and ocean fish among the sightings. There's a house reef and a dive boat, plus air fills, nitrox, equipment sales and scuba, kids' and general rental gear. Staff speak English, Spanish, French, German, Arabic and Russian, and the centre lists an Adaptive Services Facility — making it a fit for mixed-ability groups and travellers who'd rather not dive in a second language.
