Dive Africa is operating one of the most professional day boat operations in Sharm, and we always endeavor to include a large variety of dive sites in every diving package. This ensures that you will experience the wonders of the Red Sea to its fullest extent. Day trips include the spectacular Ras Mohamed Marine Park, Ras um Sid and Straits of Tiran, some of the most attractive dive sites in the Red Sea, at no extra charges, (except for the Ras Mohamed National Park entrance fees). We also endeavor to operate with a maximum of 8 divers per guide or even less on private charters. The boats we use are state-of-the-art, all fitted with toilettes, saloon, sundeck and spacious kit-up area's.
 

We offer a free complimentary transfer service between your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh/Naama bay and our dive center on daily basis.
 
Normally a day boat would depart at approx. 9:00am and return at approx. 16:00pm. Please note however, that this could change, depending on the dive location and water conditions.
 
Please also note that at Dive Africa it is compulsory to do at least one day's diving at one of the less demanding dive sites, prior to diving Ras Mohamed, Straits of Tiran or the Thistlegorm wreck. Boat night dives can be arranged on daily basis with a required minimum of 5 divers.
 
Equipment rental is charged per day, irrespective whether used for a single dive only. Diving equipment can be stored overnight on board our boats or locked in the equipment room at our dive center. The package price for full equipment rental is only applied if diving with Dive Africa. If dives are organized independently of the center, for which rental equipment is required, package price will not be applied, and all equipment rented will be charged on individual basis.
 
We will also endeavor not to break up existing groups diving from the same boat or change the dive guide, taking in consideration our customers requests and weather conditions.
 
NEW! It is also possible to do dives from day boats with Nitrox, please note however that availability is limited, so it is advisable to book this service in advance.
 
More conveniently if you would like to do some wreck diving, but prefer not to join a long liveaboard safari, we organize one-day trips (2 or 3 dives) to exciting wrecks including the world-renowned Thistlegorm and Dunraven wrecks.
 

Dive Africa Watersports arranges guided shore dives to some of the best dive sites available in Sharm El Sheikh, which includes Ras Umm Sid, The Tower, Ras Nasrani, Sharks bay, Turtle bay, and Pinkies Wall, on a daily basis.
 
The first shore diving trip normally departs daily at 10:00am and returns again at 12:00pm. A second trip is also scheduled to depart at 14:00pm, and returning at 16:00pm. Please note that some of the sites can only be dived if conditions and tides permit thus scheduled times subject to change.

An experienced guide accompanies all shore dives, and transfers to and from the dive sites are normally done in a clean and comfortable air-conditioned mini bus. The great advantage when diving from shore is that you avoid the crowds that flock to the Red Sea annually, by scheduling your dives during quiet times! Those who visit the Sinai with their families can do one dive either in the morning or afternoon and spend the rest of the day with their families.
 
At most of the dive sites the shore entry / exits can be done with relative ease, and walking over wide reef plates can be avoided. Our staff also assist you with the carrying of your equipment to / from entry exit points. A large local carpet is utilized for kitting-up on, thus avoiding sand and dirt from getting into diving equipment.
 
For those who prefer special diving trips we also arrange early morning dawn dives, or late afternoon sunset dives. Observe the coral reef and fish wake up in the morning or settle for the night in the late afternoon. Other shore diving expeditions, which can be joined, include the famous Ras Mohamed Marine Park, diving Sharks Observatory and Eel Garden. Please note that, due to possible currents and adverse water conditions, the Ras Mohamed trip is suitable for the more advanced divers only!
 
Shore dives are arranged with a required minimum of 2 and maximum of 8 divers. Guided night dives from shore are possible with a required minimum of 2 and maximum of 8 divers.
