Dear Team, I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the exceptional organization of yesterday’s diving trip. From the preparation of equipment to the warm welcome at the center, and from the professionalism of the boat staff to the dedication of the diving team, every detail was handled with excellence. A special note of gratitude goes to my instructor, Mubarak. Diving with him is truly enjoyable—his briefing was clear, thorough, and highly professional. His hospitality and expertise made the experience both safe and memorable, and I am delighted that he is part of the El Gouna diving community. I would also like to thank diver Mahmoud for his beautiful illustration of the reef, which perfectly complemented Mubarak’s explanation. My appreciation extends as well to divers Walid and Tiger, whose warm reception and attentiveness to clients added greatly to the overall experience. It was a remarkable day, and I am grateful to all of you for making it so special. Ahmed Fouad

We start around 8 AM. If you're not staying at the Cook's Club Hotel, that's not a problem. We will pick you up from any hotel or apartment in El Gouna. Our private bus will take us to the nearby Abydos harbor within El Gouna, which is just a few minutes away. From there, we will start with our 25-meter long boat "Vienna" to the first of the 55 accessible dive sites. During the ride, you can get your equipment ready and relax on the sun deck. Upon arrival at the first dive site, you will participate in the briefing and then enjoy your first dive. Before the second dive, you will have the opportunity to have lunch (charged separately). After lunch, you can rest a bit while we head to the next dive site, where you can enjoy another dive after the briefing. Afterwards, we will return to the harbor, where the bus will be waiting to take you back.

Great day diving with the family in the Red Sea. From the moment we contacted Blue Brothers they were responsive and helpful. We booked the private Speed Boat Trip - 2 dives. The hotel pickup/transfer was seamless. Our dive leader was Mahmoud. He was safety conscious, yet friendly and relaxed. Our captains Ibrahim and Ahmed were excellent boat operators and also very helpful. The dive sites were beautiful and the visibility was excellent. The rental gear was in good condition, and the dive shop was well run. If you are a family group this is the way to go.
We have dived with Blue Brothers on 3 occasions now just come back from our latest visit. I can highly recommend booking your diving with them we were a group of 4 friends and did 5 days diving. Communication from initial contact to the final contract was very professional and informative. Blue Brothers kept us updated on every aspect and pick up times were communicated on a daily basis. All staff from the shop staff, dive boat crew to guides were amazing very friendly & welcoming exceptional service and great value for money. We will be booking with them again next year.
Super professional and friendly. Excellent dive kit boat well organised and safe. Nothing too much trouble for the staff. Dive instructors excellent. Thank you Mubarak for getting Arthur through his Advanced open water and leading us in some spectacular dives. Best dive company I have dived with.
Blue Brothers is a great dive company. Prices were reasonable. The BB office kept me well advised and informed via WhatsApp and answered my questions quickly. Office staff made the signing in process quick and easy. They picked me up from my hotel the day before so that I could check out my rental equipment. The gear itself (wetsuit, boots, BCD, fins, etc) was quality branded and in great condition. The boat was a good size with decent facilities and plenty of room for everyone. The diving itself was good. The dive leaders were in control, made sure you were safe at all times, and were good spotters. Quite a lot to see including large moray eels, stonefish, lionfish, rays, pufferfish, bump head, and an octopus! The boat crew were friendly and helpful. The food was plentiful, varied and tasty - a highlight was the chef's orange cake! I would strongly recommend Blue Brothers Diving for experienced and new divers.
We had an amazing day and an unforgettable experience with Blue Brothers Diving! My girlfriend and I absolutely loved it. The whole crew was joyful, welcoming, and very professional. Our instructor, Momo, made sure we had nothing but delightful diving sessions. We’re French, and his French is really excellent so if you’re French, you can ask for Momo with your eyes closed! Two things made this experience even more special: first, we had the chance to dive hand in hand, which created an even more unforgettable moment. And second, the team even took us swimming around dolphins truly magical! Finally, the lunch was incredible. We really weren’t expecting something that good, so big congratulations to the chef!
Best dive Center in Egypt! Service in Perfection, they make everything possible what’s possible. Equipment and crew at it’s best Very friendly
I am lucky enough to have multiple dive holidays each year, so get to experience the good dive companies and the bad ones too. Blue Brothers remains right up there with the absolute best. Customer service is exceptional, the crew on the boat and the dive guised are also the best I have had the pleasure to dive with. If, like me, you do not wish to dive on Red Sea liveaboards, but still want to dive in the Red Sea, then spend a week in the beautiful El Gouna resort, a gated and safe environment, and dive on day trips with Blue Brothers, you will not regret it.
We had an excellent experience with Blue Brothers Diving. It had been a few years since our last dive, so we needed a refresher before getting back into the water. Mohamed Basiony was lovely — patient, reassuring, and incredibly knowledgeable. He took the time to go over everything thoroughly and made us feel completely comfortable and confident again. We learned a lot and really enjoyed the whole experience and we even saw a pod of Dolphins :) We’ll definitely be diving with Blue Brothers again when we return to Egypt!
The day trip boat is surprisingly large, almost a mini liveaboard. The on board facilities are in great condition and the crew was helpful. Our guide MOMO was the perfect guide for my diving companion who had been only recently restarting diving. He was patient, encouraging and upbeat with her which built up her confidence. The fresh lunches cooked on board were a nice bonus as well. The office staff was on particularly good and timely communication with my ongoing requests. Thanks to Manuela and Olivia and Iman for their being so organized and professional
My husband and I have just had the most wonderful time with Blue Brothers this last week. We did seven days diving altogether and I cannot fault a thing. Professional from start to finish - all of the staff looked after us so much, from Iman and Olivia in the office, Walid, Mubarak, Sahir, Mohammed, Aladdin on the boat and not forgetting our wonderful chef Mansour! We were kitted out with excellent equipment which was ready for us every day and there is a detailed safety briefing for the boat and before every dive. Everything is geared towards looking after us and making us feel safe. It’s a great relaxing day, usually with a longish trip out on the boat, a dive in the morning, a tasty tasty lunch, more relaxing and then a second dive in the afternoon. Nothing feels rushed - it’s been truly fabulous and we will be back again next year!
Blue Brothers are our favourite dive team. This was our 2nd year diving with them and they are all such lovely and professional people. Everyone is very welcoming and feel like friends - from the team at the dive centre, the dive guides and the boat crew. A very special mention has to go to Mansoor and his colleagues for the delicious lunches they prepare on the boat every day - YUM ! We dived for 7 days and had an amazing mixture of superb dive sites and perfect equipment. Everything always goes like clockwork and is very well organised. We love diving with these guys and are looking forward to returning again next year. It was a very special holiday and we can’t recommend Blue Brothers enough to anyone thinking about diving in The Red Sea. Thanks again everyone and very best wishes.
Great introduction dive, two dives on a reef. The boat trip was lovely, the lunch was tasty and great value. The two dives were amazing, the staff were all very helpful and my dive instructor (Yassa) made me feel safe and comfortable at all times. The team gave out lots of information about the area and the reef, which was interesting too.
I have just returned from my fifth trip with Blue Brothers Diving, and it suddenly struck me that I’ve never gotten around to writing them a proper review. This is a dreadful oversight on my part, because if any dive centre deserves a 5-star review, it’s them. From my very first trip back in 2010 to the most recent, every experience has been marked by professionalism and unforgettable diving. There are plenty of good dive centres in the area, but I’ve never once been tempted to try another – why would I, when I have already found the best? So, what makes Blue Brothers stand out? First and foremost, I love their full-day diving concept. Instead of rushing through two morning dives just to be back on land by midday, the entire day is spent on the boat in a relaxed, unhurried way. Every dive is preceded by a clear and thorough briefing. Between dives, there’s time to get out of your gear, enjoy lunch, take a swim off the boat, and simply soak up the beauty of the Red Sea. To me, this is diving the way it should be done! Blue Brothers Diving has many dive guides and instructors employed, as well as some freelancers. I have dived with many of them, and I can conclude that they choose them well, since I have yet to have a bad experience. Although I’ve observed different diving styles, I have enjoyed them all. The instructors and boat crew are all very service-minded, yet you’re still responsible for your own equipment and its assembly (in my opinion, pre-assembled equipment should not be allowed anywhere). If you need help, it’s there, but you’re expected to know how to do it (as any diver should). The gear is well-maintained and in good condition, and diving safety is taken very seriously. On my recent trip, another boat anchored next to us had a double diving accident presumably due to contaminated air. The crew of that boat were slow to act and did not know what they were doing. The crew of Blue Brothers Diving immediately stepped in to help and provide lifesaving first aid. They even had to supply pure oxygen from our boat, because the other boat had forgotten to refill theirs. That day, we talked a lot about how grateful we were to be on the boat we were on. I wholeheartedly recommend Blue Brothers Diving to anyone planning a dive trip in the Red Sea. I advise to familiarise yourself with the diving concept before going on the boat – the staff at the dive centre is very nice and welcoming and can help with this. Typically, you also go to the dive centre the day before diving to sort out your equipment. For any errand at the dive centre, free transfer is available from anywhere in El Gouna. Early booking will secure you a very competitive price for your diving (Early booking = registering for your first couple of dive days at least 14 days in advance). Other than that, enjoy the diving! Will I return again myself? – Definitely.
Used Blue Brothers Diving for our DPV course our instructor Saher Maher was excellent making the practical side of the course interesting and enjoyable. The whole team both at the dive shop and on the dive boat were very professional. Thanks and we will see you again.
Fantastic diving school. Really professional staff who is taking safety to a higher leven. I was diving with mahmoud and he was really fantastic. There was even on another boat a safari one 2 rescues needed. The safari boat did not stepped in but the blue brothers act fantastic to save divers their lives. Mahmoud went in as soon he saw they where doing nothing. Briefing is great and the boat it self also great. The equipement is in really good shape. Cressi bcd and a great octopuss system. The cressi suits are great. Worth the money and worth to dive with blue brothers. Best of el gouna. Fantatstic quality. Yes maybe they are a bit more extensieve then others but for you safety please book blue brothers.
Overall a great experience delivered by a truly outstanding team. Faultless service from start to finish (hotel collection/drop-off, dive centre equipment selection, boat, food on boat and lastly dive-masters - all v. professional), plus great locations to dive.
During our dive up to 20 meters we saw so many beautiful species, sea anemones, stingrays, Napoleonfish .... My last dive was a long time ago but both of my diving instructors were excellent guides, both very experienced and speaking German, I felt very safe all the time. Also enjoyed the time on the yacht and a delicious meal. Newest scuba equipment. I can only recommend and will definitely be back!
Very well-run diving centre with Swiss management. Beautiful day boat with a dedicated crew and good food. The diving instructors and guides are also very friendly and motivated. Definitely recommendable.
The tour was arranged to perfection, with excellent service from start to finish. I myself was allowed to enjoy two dives with a very experienced guide who showed me everything. We were also lucky: dolphins also came to take a look at what we were doing. My wife was involved in snorkeling, but that was also arranged to perfection. You could also see me diving occasionally. Lunch was also fine. I can recommend this service to everyone to enjoy the Red Sea and what there is to see.
This year’s diving experience was a true joy. Muhammad Elsherif, my diving buddy and accomplice, made this year and this week unforgettable once again. All of this in a very serious diving club with a nearly family-like welcome where the motto is safety first and the next is be happy, we are here for you. Impeccable equipment, a cheerful and friendly team: Blue Brothers Diving Center El Gouna. Oh, I almost forgot the crew of the Vienna, they are also perfect. Do not hesitate to visit them for training, diving, and snorkeling. Additionally, Muhammad will conduct the training in French. It’s a promise.
I did my 50th dive with them. Pure happiness. Recent equipment, a listening welcome (thank you Iman and Olivia) and an exceptional Francophone diving pair (Merci Momo). On the boat (which is very well maintained, large and well appointed) a good atmosphere with permanent smiles. The team is serene and well trained. This club we return with pleasure.
Great team, best service, experienced guides, everyone is so kind and accommodating. You feel totally safe. We had fantastic dives. The diving days were perfectly organized, from check-in to payment, all digital and comfortable. The guides responded individually to our wishes and got everything out of the underwater world and showed us so much. The crew is the best: the welcome on the boat, always helpful, the fantastic food, the many helping hands when equipping, on request taxi by sodiak, always view of dolphins etc. The spots are selected daily for the divers perfectly and offer something for every level and every requirement. Clearly - highly recommended!
The diving school was both absolutely professional and friendly. I was on the boat for 4 days for diving and was able to become much safer after the dive certificate this year. Our guide Fahmi was very patient, relaxed and helpful. Without him, I would have missed many fish. Even in the dive center, the care was very familiar. Thank you for the great time with you.
Did 3 days of diving with the base. In addition to the more than excellent professional support, I can highlight the top maintained equipment. A highlight was the day in Abu Nuhas with the two wreck dives
The dive center is probably the best available in El Gouna and Hurghada. Perfectly organized operation, punctual pick-up service, new and high-quality rental equipment, Nitrox for free, large dive boat with motivated team, tasty lunch and a professional dive crew for beginners, students and advanced. Bravo! I will definitely be back.
Out of curiosity about what diving feels like, I booked a one-day dive trip with a personal coach with the Blue Brothers Diving team. (Scubadive) This is a full-day tour with 2 dives on a reef in the open sea. Christina looked after me professionally and kindly from start to finish. She introduced me to matter with a lot of feeling, explained everything to me in detail and accompanied me. The equipment is state-of-the-art and in top condition. The whole team is very friendly and there is a relaxed and humorous atmosphere. On the 2 dive trips Christina was always right by my side, which gave me security, because diving is very complex. It was an incredible experience to be able to experience the fascinating underwater world in all its colours and shapes. I will come back and then take the open water course at Blue Brothers. Here I feel very well looked after and safe. Thank you for this great experience, which was really worth every penny. You're doing a great job, and that's what I mean from the heart.
we were very enthusiastic as always and will gladly come back - the around package from the dive center to the dive guide very courteous and helpful An adventure that we will never forget diving directly with the dolphins in the Red Sea.
