[mania]

I thought it can be a good idea to post them.
For all of you going diving to Egypt.

Search and Rescue - Hurghada
+20 12 235 13 13

Search and Rescue Sharm el Sheikh
+20 12 313 41 58

SAR in both cities is specialized in rescuing divers and snorkels. They are coming really fast!!!

I keep these numbers in my mobile and my logbook.

Both SARs - in Hurghada and Sharm are using speed boats and at least in Hurghada - they are coming within 40 minutes - 1 hour. But this rule applies only to SAR. Other emergency services - you are right - are not so fast.
