Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt · 5h · €155 per person · EN
We had an amazing experience diving with Shark Divers! We did three full days of diving with them, and everything was exceptional. Our guide Bob was absolutely outstanding. He was highly professional, yet very friendly and calm.
What is this tour like?
Shark Divers works from Hadabet Um El Sid in Sharm El Sheikh, next door to the Desert View hotel, and rates 4.9 from 203 Google reviews. This is their certified-divers programme in the boat trips section: a shark-diving day run from a Zodiac. The small rigid inflatable is the point — it carries a handful of divers instead of a full day-boat load, moves quickly between sites and drops you close to the entry rather than at a mooring.
Because of that format the price sits well above a standard two-dive day: €155 per person. The operator's product page now spells out what that buys: two dives mixing blue-water crossings with reefs on the safety stops, three hours of Zodiac rental, a site briefing, water and juice — and, in the inclusions list, transfers, the Zodiac rental itself, soft drinks, guide fees, air tanks and weights, and permissions. Only two extras carry a figure: a diving gear box at €20 and a dive computer at €10. The programme runs from 05:30 to 10:30 between June and November, and the page gives the duration as five hours. Chances of seeing a shark the operator puts at 50/50, and books 24 hours ahead; the booking flow takes a 10 % deposit. This is a programme for divers who already hold a certification and are comfortable with a fast open boat, entries from the tube and no shaded deck to sit out the surface interval.
