Author: Need a diving holiday this year, but haven’t decided where to go, well let me help you out, I just went on my first Diving holiday and want to share the experience with you!
Hurghada is one of the most beautiful places that I have ever visited, and the Ocean “Red Sea” was amazing. The waters are so cool and calm, with clear blue seas. Now Egypt is generally a beautiful place to visit, with locations like Sharm El Sheikh and Luxor, but Hurghada makes you feel special. If you have ever heard of the Oberoi chain of hotels you will know what the place I was staying in would look like. This 5 star hotel was quite modest in price, but was extremely luxurious. There was a coral reef just off the coast from here and some great locations to go Wall Diving and Free diving.
The Coral diving was amazing, I couldn’t believe all of the separate colours that I saw, not to mention all of the weird and wonderful fish there were. Now I had already been Scuba Diving before so I was considered only a slight Amateur, but I had passed my PADI novice test. This allowed me to go Scuba Diving in Hurghada. We all had a great diving session in the Coral waters, it was amazing, and then the next time we were taken out we were taken into the deep blue. I wasn’t sure really what the plan was today, because stopped paying attention after I met a lovely lady.
I was quite quickly told to get ready for the Shark Diving, that didn’t sound good to me! Now, I am not all that good with sharks, although I can dive where they may be, I would prefer to stay away, and now I am going to be swimming with them. I was told that everything would be fine and not to panic. Now for the sake of not embarrassing myself in front of the lovely lady, I got in. Almost immediately we were met by about 4 Sharks (white tip I think). It was amazing, I had the best time of my life!
Hurghada holidays are a must do for anyone. Try Diving holidays if you ever get the chance, not to mention Hurghada diving!
