he Open Water Diver (OWD) course is the ideal starting point for anyone looking to become a diver. This programme is designed to be completed in three days, all while diving in the stunning waters of Sharm El Sheikh. The first day includes watching a DVD, learning essential theory, and engaging in diving exercises in either a swimming pool or shallow water. The following two days are dedicated to boat excursions to Ras Muhammed National Park, complete with lunch and drinks. Another option for the OWD is to begin with an introductory dive from the shore on the first day. You can watch the DVD in the evening at your hotel (consider bringing your laptop) or during your shore trip. The following days will also involve shore dives as you continue your OWD course, with a maximum depth of 18 metres. You will receive the required theory book for your OWD course from our Scuba Diving Centre in Sharm El Sheikh on your first day. Our Open Water Diving Course lasts three days, featuring a total of 4 dives from the boat.
