Clearing water from your mask.

Controlling your buoyancy and underwater positioning.

Complete Your Open Water Training Dives in the Red Sea
The highlight of your PADI Open Water Diver Course is putting your newly learned skills into practice in the beautiful waters of Marsa Alam.
PADI Open Water Diver certification requires four open-water training dives, together with the required knowledge development and confined-water skills.
The advertised Marsa Waves program includes two scheduled diving sessions daily over three days. Your instructor will organize the sessions around the required training components and explain how the practical activities fit into your certification program.
During your supervised open-water dives, you'll apply your scuba skills in a natural marine environment while exploring suitable Red Sea training locations.
Improve your buoyancy, practice underwater communication, complete required diving exercises, and become more confident moving beneath the surface.
As your skills develop, enjoy the opportunity to admire colorful coral formations and tropical reef fish during the underwater exploration portions of your training.
Dive locations, depths, and schedules are selected according to PADI training requirements, your progress, and the day's sea conditions.
Discover Beautiful Diving Locations Around Marsa Alam
One of the advantages of taking a scuba diving course in Egypt's southern Red Sea is the opportunity to learn in an area famous for its remarkable coral reefs and marine biodiversity.

Depending on the training schedule and conditions, suitable locations may include areas around Marsa Mubarak, Abu Dabbab Bay, and local house reefs.
These beautiful Red Sea environments provide opportunities to practice essential skills while discovering colorful corals and tropical marine life under instructor supervision.
