Egypt: diving from shore

[skyguy94]

Who'd you book with?

Hi Skyguy94, we've only booked flights and accommodation this far, in Hurghada.
We were thinking of Prince Diving after having read some positive feedback on them.
Aquanaut might be one option, too.
Frankly, I should go and read this forum through, just haven't had the time to do all that yet.
Any good ideas who to dive with (dive shops), what to do, maybe some daily trips around Hurghada?
Cheers
Matti

I dunno, I haven't dove there yet. I booked a liveaboard with Emperor Diver's over the holidays, but they all seem similar at this point. I did have problems with with blue02 not being responsive to my emails and questions. I actually was ready to book with them, but they never really got back to me.

Yes - Blue O Two seems slightly unresponsive at the moment. COuld be due to the fact that they were at the UK's largest dive show over the weekend...

I used to live in Ann Arbor...

Ditto- for Orca Dive Club at Dahab.

Really? Orca are charging "coastguard fees" and "reef fees" off people? Or did i read that wrong?

My issues were during the first two weeks of October. I gave up after that.
