Unforgettable Red Sea experiences

This case will most likely never happen to you because you have a gauge that tells you how much air you have left throughout the dive. This way you can get back to the surface in time and with a safe air reserve. But to answer the question anyway, if you do run out of air, use your dive buddy’s second mouthpiece to breathe from their tank while you surface together. There are other ways you will learn during your dive training.

No, as long as you don’t have any injuries in your ears and sinuses. The uncomfortable feeling is the very normal effect of the water pressure pressing on your ears. Fortunately, the human body is capable of adapting to pressure fluctuations in the ears, you just have to learn how. If you have no trouble adjusting to air pressure when flying in a passenger plane, you probably won’t have any trouble adjusting to water pressure when diving.

Learning to dive is an indescribable adventure! With PADI as your dive training organization, your journey to breathing underwater is broken down into three exciting phases: 1. Knowledge development (theory) – PADI eLearning only 2. Practical training in confined water (pool or pool-like conditions) 3. Open water dives <strong>1) Knowledge development (theory) – PADI eLearning only</strong> In the first phase of your PADI Open Water Diver training, you learn the key terminology and build a solid understanding of the fundamentals of diving. For example, you will learn how water pressure affects your body, how to choose the right diving equipment, and what to consider when planning your dives. You complete the entire theory section online with PADI eLearning, at your own pace — whenever and wherever you want. The course content is divided into chapters with knowledge checks along the way. At the end, you review any open questions with your instructor and complete the required knowledge assessment(s). If anything is unclear, you go through it together until everything makes sense. Important: We offer the theory exclusively via PADI eLearning. We do not provide or require printed manuals, DVDs, or other offline learning materials. <strong>2) Confined water training – practicing diving skills</strong> Now it is all about diving. In your first sessions in the pool (or pool-like conditions), you develop the basic skills you need for safe diving. You learn how to set up your equipment, how to clear water from your mask underwater, and how to control your buoyancy. You also practice essential safety and emergency skills, such as sharing air with another diver. The training includes five confined-water sessions that build on each other and prepare you for the open water dives. <strong>3) Open water dives – using your skills in the sea</strong> After the confined-water sessions, you head into the “real” water with your PADI Instructor for four open water dives. This is where the real underwater adventure begins. You will repeat and apply some of the skills you practiced in confined water — now in open water conditions. For the open water dives, we go out to the Red Sea with our dive boat over two days.

The climate is pleasant year-round. From December to April it can be windy, so we recommend warmer clothes, a windbreaker, and headwear.

If your travel company does not provide a transfer, we can organize a shuttle service. A taxi transfer is also possible, but we recommend arranging it in advance.
