Diving & Snorkeling Experience ➝
Do I need certification to go scuba diving?
No. You do not need a diving certification to enjoy a beginner diving experience as a tourist. Before entering the water, you will receive a safety briefing and basic instructions. During the dive, you will be accompanied and supervised by a certified diving professional, so you can safely experience the Red Sea underwater even if you have never dived before.
Can children join snorkeling tours?
Yes. Children can join snorkeling trips with their families. Life jackets and appropriate safety equipment are available, and at the different snorkeling stops each family can choose what feels most comfortable — staying closer to the boat or joining the group to explore more of the Red Sea.
What if I feel nervous or uncomfortable while diving?
Feeling nervous before your first dive is completely normal. Before entering the water, a certified diving professional will explain the basic safety rules, equipment and simple hand signals used underwater. During the dive, you will be closely supervised and can signal at any time if you feel uncomfortable or want to stop. The experience is taken at a pace that allows you to feel safe and comfortable.
What if I’m not a strong swimmer or feel nervous about snorkeling?
You can still enjoy snorkeling even if you are not a confident swimmer. Life jackets are available, and you can choose what feels comfortable for you. On organized snorkeling trips, guides provide instructions and supervision, while private speedboat trips offer more flexibility — you can stay close to the boat, spend less time in the water or simply enjoy the trip without snorkeling.
Equipment & Safety ➝
Is equipment included for diving and snorkeling?
Yes. The necessary equipment for both diving and snorkeling is included in the experience price. Before entering the water, the equipment is prepared and you will be shown how to use it correctly.
How is safety handled during diving and snorkeling?
Before entering the water, you will receive a safety briefing and clear instructions about the activity and equipment. You will also be asked about any health conditions that could affect your safety in the water. During organized diving and snorkeling activities, trained professionals supervise guests and provide assistance when needed. If you have a medical condition or any concerns, please let the diving or snorkeling team know before entering the water.
Do I need travel insurance for diving and snorkeling?
Travelers should arrive in Egypt with their own valid travel insurance. Before travelling, we recommend checking that your policy covers the activities you plan to join, including diving or snorkeling where applicable. Trust Travel Egypt does not provide separate travel insurance.
