Discover Scuba Diving in Hurghada – No Experience Needed

Discover Scuba Diving in Hurghada with Marine Yacht | SSI Dive Center

Have you ever wanted to experience the underwater world but have no diving experience? At Marine Yacht SSI Dive Center in Hurghada, you can join a professionally guided Discover Scuba Diving (DSD) program — no certification or prior training required. This is the ideal introduction to scuba diving in the clear, warm waters of the Red Sea, with everything included to make your experience safe, fun, and memorable.


What Is Discover Scuba Diving?

Discover Scuba Diving (DSD) is an SSI program designed for complete beginners. It is not a certification course, but a fully guided experience that allows you to safely try scuba diving under the supervision of a certified SSI instructor. You will receive a short briefing on safety and basic diving skills, followed by a real dive in open water. At Marine Yacht, your dive will last around 35 minutes and take place at one of Hurghada’s top shallow reef sites, perfect for beginners.


What’s Included in the DSD Experience?

Marine Yacht offers a complete, all-inclusive DSD package:

  • Full dive equipment rental
  • Safety and skills briefing by a certified SSI instructor
  • 35-minute guided dive on a vibrant coral reef
  • Free underwater photos and videos of your dive
  • Lunch and soft drinks served onboard
  • Hotel pickup and drop-off included
  • Optional snorkeling during the rest of the trip
  • Small group sizes for personal attention

All you need to bring is a towel and sunscreen — we take care of everything else.


Why Choose Hurghada for Your First Dive?

Hurghada is one of the best destinations in the world for beginner divers. The Red Sea offers:

  • Excellent visibility and calm conditions
  • Warm water year-round
  • Shallow, colorful reefs close to shore
  • Abundant marine life including clownfish, parrotfish, rays, and more
  • Safe dive sites ideal for first-time divers

Our team selects beginner-friendly locations to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience from start to finish.


Who Can Join?

The Discover Scuba Diving program is open to anyone aged 10 years and older who is in general good health. You do not need to know how to dive or swim professionally — just be comfortable in the water. If you have specific medical concerns, we can provide a health questionnaire to ensure your safety.


What Will You See?

During your dive, you’ll explore coral gardens teeming with marine life. The Red Sea is home to vibrant hard and soft corals, hundreds of tropical fish species, and occasionally sea turtles, octopuses, or moray eels. Every dive is different, but all are guided carefully to help you enjoy your first time underwater.
