What is this tour like?

Aqua Sharm Diving College works out of the Sharm Inn Amarein hotel in Hadaba and holds a clean 5.0 on Google from 147 reviews as of 3 September 2026. The day itself is the standard Sharm format: two dives from the boat, with a dive guide, 12-litre air tanks, weights and belt, and transfer from and to any hotel in Sharm included in the €80.

This operator is the clearest example in town of why the headline price is not the bill. Its own price list adds the national park fee on the boat at €10.00 per day, lunch and drinks on the boat at €10.00 per day, and then states that 14 % VAT is not included and will be added to the total invoice. €80 becomes €100 before tax and about €114 after it. We would rather you knew that here than at the jetty.

What are the highlights?

  • Transfer from any hotel in Sharm is inside the price
  • Guide, 12-litre tanks, weights and belt included
  • The operator publishes its VAT rule instead of hiding it
  • 5.0 on Google from 147 reviews (3 September 2026)
  • Small centre — 147 reviews rather than thousands, and the rating has held

Paid separately, on the day: national Park fee on boat, €10.00 per day; lunch and drinks on boat, €10.00 per day and 14 % VAT is not included and will be added to the total invoice. Ask us for the exact total before you book and we confirm it with the centre.

So what do two dives actually cost me?
€80 for the diving, €10 for the national park fee, €10 for lunch and drinks — €100, and then 14 % VAT is added to the invoice, so around €114 per person for the day.

Is equipment included or rented separately?
Rented separately: the price covers tanks, weights and the guide, but not the personal kit — wetsuit, BCD, regulator, mask and fins.

Wind can close the Tiran and Ras Mohammed runs at short notice. If the coastguard stops the boats, the operator moves you to another day or to a sheltered site; written cancellation terms we confirm with the centre before you pay.

Tell us the date and the number of guests — we hold the slot with the centre and send you the written confirmation with the final total, fees included.
What languages does the team work in?
The team works in English. Russian is not confirmed for this centre, so we do not promise a Russian-speaking guide — ask us and we will find one of the Sharm operators that does confirm it.
