Especially its for our instructor Islam Sameh. He showed us how looks night snorkeling. And it was really unforgettable emotions. Thit pleasant time we will remember for a long time and of course will tell our friends about this adventure. Islamchik-krasavchik he showed patience and professionalis to us - thank you for that.He showed how beautiful can be Red Sea and at the same time dangerous, we saw there murena, red lionfish, squid, cramp-fish and other fishes that you can see only in the night.I can confidently recommend this excursion you will never regret.

All of our ten dives was very nice! The instructors seemed professional, and we always felt safe and taken care of. They seemed genuinely interested in making sure we got good dives, and that we got to see interesting stuff during the dive. Sometimes it felt a little stressful though, with people shouting and hurrying the divers when we were jumping from the boat, and climbing back (especially the boat crew). But that I think is quite the same elsewhere.. The food on the boats was verry good, especially on the one called Overseas! It was boring to come back to our hotel to eat dinner, because the food on the boats was much better (we did not stay at Reef Oasis Beach resort)! Everything ran smoothly, from booking the trip back home, to pick-up and transport back to our hotel. The nice lady in the reception seemed to have full control, and always had quick and good answers if we needed something. I would highly recommend Reef Oasis Dive Club in Reef Oasis Beach Resort, Sharm el Sheik, and will happily dive with them next time.

We flew to Sharm el Sheikh for some sun and diving. We booked the Reef Oasis Blue Bay Resort mainly because the dive center is located on site and directly off the beach to the hotel.

My husband and my two children (ages 16 and 18) were occasional divers with PADI Open water certification. We booked a 10-dive package per person before arrival. By departure, they got their PADI AOW, Nitrox certificate and tons of wonderful dives and excursions. All under the motivation, professional guidance and excellent training of Ayman Ali. Ayman is calm, patient, super experienced, structured and organized. He made the night dives, reef dives, excursions to the Blue Hole and other sites memorable, enjoyable and safe. We were there for 10 days in Sharm and dove 9 days (one day excursion to Cairo). The kids were so enthusiastic to get up every morning to get their two-dives with Ayman. Every dive with him was educational, fun and a wonderful discovery of the underwater world and its inhabitants.

The dive center’s staff, crew and dive masters were all very friendly, accommodating and professional. They are very cultural diverse and speak multiple languages. Special acknowledgment to the two gentlemen (unfortunately I don’t have the names) who were on site to help with the equipments before and after each dive. The facilities were welcoming, clean and practically situated- especially their beach site where you just merge yourself down to the reef.

If you ever make it to Sharm el Sheikh, I would highly recommend Reef Oasis Dive Center for an excellent experience.

I originally chose the Reef Oasis Dive Club to take the PADI Advanced Open Water course, of which I successfully earned that certification. In one short week I managed 18 dives which included boat and shore dives to Ras Mohamed, Shark Reef, Yolanda Reef, Ras Za’atar, Jackson Reef, Temple Reef, SS Thistlegorm, and The Blue Hole and the Canyon in Dahab.

The Red Sea is beyond amazing. The visibility was incredible and the water temperatures were so nice that I wished I could have stayed underwater for far longer than humanly possible.

My initial email correspondence was with Ms. Ola Slizankiewicz, who explained all of the dive details and answered all of my questions in detail and with professionalism.

Ayman Z. Salama greeted me with open arms and I felt very welcomed at the dive club. He was always available to answer my questions and moreover, he was very flexible with my dive schedule.

My instructor and subsequent guide for the entire week was Ahmed H. Hassan. He is a top-notch instructor and patiently guided me through the Advanced Open Water course. I also became certified in the Peak Performance Buoyancy and Enriched Air (Nitrox) specialty courses. I never felt rushed by Ahmed and I felt that he genuinely cared about my well-being. For example, Ahmed carried my cylinder, BCD, and regulators from the Reef Oasis vehicle to the entrance of the Blue Hole. It was a long and treacherous walk which he seemed to do with aplomb. Due to the Eid holidays, the entrance was crowded with people snorkeling and diving. Fortunately, Ahmed’s patience and fluency in Arabic ensured that we could get into the water without any issues.

The videography and photography of Mohammed Abdel Kader and Amir, both professional photographers with the resort, were amazing. Their skills are incomparable and well worth the money I spent to preserve my underwater memories.

I wish I knew the names of everyone, including the staff on the boats, who worked with me at the dive club. They collectively made my first dive experiences in the Red Sea very special.

Nadia el Adrou in the front office at the dive club is very kind. She processed my purchases of rash guards and other items, and explained in detail of my final invoice with me. It is worth noting that you will receive a print out of your dive log before you leave the dive club.

I will definitely return to the Reef Oasis Dive Club in Sharm El-Sheikh and look forward to future dives in the stunning Red Sea.

My experience with the dive club was spectacular! I did a shore and a night dive, then a day on the boat to Ras Mohammed, and another boat day trip to Local. As a single American English speaking woman traveling to the Red Sea for the first time, I am so grateful to have found such a safe, welcoming, and fun dive crew. Hamada Capo dove with me all 3 days, and I couldn’t have asked for a more professional, experienced dive master to go with. Many thanks!

We completed five dives with Reef Oasis and enjoyed each one of them. We dove each of the house reefs (Far Garden and Temple) and then three boat dives at Ras Mohamed. The dive masters were all very experienced and professional and ensured we all had a safe and memorable experience. We had a bigger group on the boat dives and the dive masters tried to split us up based on ability. Both groups ended around the same area, however they allowed those of us with more air to stay down longer. We really appreciated this, as there was sometimes a 15 minute difference. Our favorite dive master was Ahmed Abd Elrazik. He took the time to ask us what kind of experience we wanted (deep or shallow dive) and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great dive. The equipment was in good working order and the staff ensured we had properly fitted equipment. We highly recommend Reef Oasis and appreciated the friendliness of each staff member we encountered!

Highly recommended dive center situated right at a stunning house reef, probably the best in Sharm! The crew is enthusiastic and skilled with a special focus on safety. Wheather you are a snorkeler or diver they will stop at nothing to make sure you are super safe in the turquoise waters of the reefs. It is for sure a very popular center with many guests but they managed to make diving excursions personal and boat trips to dive spots were beautiful with wellprepared and delicious food. All transport (boats and minibus is top class) The dive sites are extraordinary (did not do the wreck dive, so no opinion on that one) but the favourite must be Canyon, part of Blue Hole/Canyon excursion. Don't miss it! The food at that lunch place was also the best I had during the entire vacation! Choosing a dive package is easy with the guidance of coordinated well informed staff, and if you decide to dive more than you originally opted for (diving spots are so spectacular, chances are big you will want to) adjusted payment is an effortless procedure. No extra waste of time or fuss once it is time to unfortunately pack and go home from vacation. Special thanks to unforgettable crew member Monty, and all the other lucky Reef Oasis instructors who get to dive every day in the best spots of the Red Sea.

I was there for almost a week and took my PADI Open Water course. The course was taking partially at their pool and partially at their house reef in front of the hotel beach named “Temple”. During the course, I saw of course the amazing coral reef and various spices of Red Sea fish, as well as the moray, turtle and blue spotted ray.

As for safety aspect, my coach Ali Saif is extremely patient and reliable, and is highly recommended! He knows how to make you feel comfortable and relaxed under the sea if you are a beginner. The whole team is professional from the instructor to the young boys who do the backup preparations. I appreciate everyone there at diving club.

Pricewise, I think it’s quite fair, but diving is generally not a cheap activity so don’t expect something with very low price. And comparing the PADI course worldwide with it here and the reef and marine live you would see in Red Sea, I think it’s absolutely worth the price.

I also took two days with 5 fun dives after completing the course. We went to the Ras Mohammed national park and Straits of Tiran and they were just astonishing. I prefer Ras Mohammed personally because you can visit the underwater cave, the deep vertical wall, all types of marine animals and corals. We saw a crocodile fish lying on the bottom sand and was cute. Other teams at the same day even encountered whitetip shark and whale shark. Both professionals and beginners and find interesting things to do there.

My husband did the Advanced Open Water course there and also took the night dive. He thinks it was one of the most amazing experiences he’s ever had.

Unfortunately, we didn’t see shark or eagle ray or any big thing there this time. But the journey in general was fantastic!

I booked 2 shore dives.
The corals at the shore are magnificent.
The diver with me was very professional and he gave me a brief about nitrox and we dived with nitrox.
My 11 years old daughter got excited as well and I booked for her an intro dive for 15 minutes.
She loved it.
The equipment are well maintained.

I did about 15 dives over a fortnight. House reef Ras Mohammed and Tiran.
The office staff are really helpful and friendly, the dive support staff are excellent and the Dive Instructors are just the best. They manage dive groups to maximise your individual bottom time based on air consumption efficiency and take you to the best sites. They know their stuff are helpful and are great company. The boat ‘Overseas’ is well run and comfy. I will definitely use again. !!!
I also booked a night snorkel with Alex who was brilliant with my young son, showing him all sorts of things we might easily have missed.
Through Mo, who was also brilliant with my family, we booked 2 private speedboat snorkel trips to Tiran. Alex actually accompanied us as guide on both those and he was brilliant. Across all snorkelling we saw loads of fish life, and some less commonly seen stuff like octopus squid and a shark!! Alex also managed to find the dolphins on the way back. My boy was buzzing!!!! Thanks to all staff from me, my wife and Shark Boy
