I dived with Freedom for 3 days, I have AOWD. I have no reservations in recommending this team should you find yourself in the area and want to either revisit your love of diving or a nervous first timer. The dive centre itself is very clean and well maintained. Staff extremely friendly, well trained and with a host of linguistic talent. Boats and equipment very well maintained.

Very enjoyable again and a totally professional service. Next day was a twin dive from the boat at another of the local reef. Lots to see despite the water being a firm 22 degrees. We were off to the end of the house pier to dive the house reef. After a re visit to the basics and making sure no one was likely to kill themselves. Our instructor was top notch, made everyone comfortable, was patient and clear. The following day we met up for the short refresher course prior to the dive. I was issued my own locker for the gear I had brought with me. Upon arrival they were expecting me and most of the usual paperwork had been completed online so we were pretty much good to go. My refresher dive was booked and my follow up dives after. My enquiry was answered quickly and covered every point I asked. I made contact via email a month before my trip from the UK. From the outset they proved to be nothing less than professional all the way. I had the good fortune to dive with this organisation March this year. I loved it and will definitely come back!

After the full day tour, the guide even took his time to take us on a fotoshoot dive from the dive boat back to the house reef.Īll that is left to say is that I fully recommend Extra Divers, whether for complete beginners or very experienced divers. All dives were planned very carefully and structured.Īll the fun dives we did were a great experience. Thanks to the instructors great teaching skills I felt that I was improving with every dive. Personally, I did different specialty courses (deep diving, perfect buoyancy, navigation and nitrox) and since I was the only one taking these courses I had the benefit of getting ‘private lessons’. They always took their time for us and provided us with the best experience we could hope for.

The whole team is very professional, extraordinarily friendly and willing to help. When some of us required it, they provided us with a personal guide.

After that we were free to inscribe for a wide range of different diving tours (early morning, a variety of short trips, half- and full day tours, sunset dives etc.). The first dive had to be a checkdive at their absolutely stunning house reef just in front of the dive center, where we repeated the basic diving skills. On the first day they equipped us with everything we needed (regulators, jackets etc.) and prepared us for diving with them for a week. They took a lot of time for everyone of us to create the perfect program. The whole team was extraordinarily willing and capable to adjust to our wishes – including short term program changes from our side. We all had different levels of experience and different wishes of what to do, ranging from the Open Water Diver Course over different specialty courses to various fun dives. Me and a group of friends spent 6 days diving with Extra Divers at Makadi Bay. So don’t hesitate, discover the wonderful place with iDive Diving Center! As there are a lot of boats over your head while diving, don’t forget your SMB. The House Reef is just fantastic, you'll really see a lot and Carlo has an in-depth knowledge of the marine life and explains you everything with great enthusiasm. So, I definitely recommend him for your course. After the course I did another five dives with my boys, and they have well learned with Ahmed. The diving equipment, especially the suits are in perfect condition, and they also have very small sizes for kids.Īhmed, the diving instructor of my two kids did a wonderful job with them. Their team is also very much dedicated to the customer’s needs and also their security. The Dive Center is run by two highly skilled diving professionals Erika Marchino and Carlo Cogliati. They had an instructor for themselves which was really a great experience. Both did the theory at home before we arrived in order to have the fun part in Egypt. My 2 boys (12 & 14) did the PADI OWD with iDive Diving Center.

We were from October 14th 2021 at the Red Sea at Makadi Bay.
