Two-Dive Reef Day (Gouna departures)

Small-boat diving with El Gouna's calmer logistics

El Gouna's dive centres run smaller, quieter boats than the Hurghada fleet and sit closer to the northern sites — Sha'ab El Erg, Umm Gamar, and the Gubal wrecks on longer days. Valet-style setups (they build your kit, you dive) are standard here. Certified divers, all levels of site available.

Best time

Year-round; north sites are calmest in summer

Entry & fees

Two-dive day incl. tanks, weights, guide; kit rental extra. We match you to the right centre and quote current rates.

Insider tip

Ask for a boat doing Umm Gamar's southern plateau — the cave-and-pinnacle section at 20 m is the area's most underrated dive.
