It was a very fun experience with a very nice and friendly instructor (Ayman).

Excellent experience . Reef was superb and Ayman was a great instructor, very patient. Would definitely recommend reef oasis for open water diver course . Elliot

I completed my training at this dive center through the OWD (Open Water Diver) program. The facilities for learning are excellent—there’s a large pool with varying depths, and the equipment is professional-grade. The training took place both in the pool and in open water (shore dives). Ashraf Ali, my instructor, is a true professional—very patient and kind. He explains everything clearly and can do so in several languages, including Russian. He makes sure to give each student plenty of individual attention. I’m so glad I ended up in his class!

Excellent experience! Very relaxed atmosphere at the dive centre. Our instructor - Ayman Aref - was great very professional and able to explain everything well, our group consisted of me and my son 14, and a russian guy. Diving in the ocean at Far Garden Sharm el sheikh twice amazing.

Amazing experiance, way better than snorkeling, also good skill learning/pool diving also open water diving. About 4 people per group. Our instructor Ayman was really good, also good for teens.

Great experience, amazing open water course, I did 3 dives in the pool and 4 dives in the sea and it was beautiful. This feelings are unforgettable. Very thankful to my instructor Ashraf Aly

I’ve always wanted to scuba dive and am so pleased I booked my first experience and open water course with Reef Oasis in Sharm El Sheikh. The whole experience was excellent, the team are professional and friendly, and I had some fantastic dives including a boat trip. Our personal instructor Abdullah was magic and we felt in safe hands throughout. An experience of a lifetime I will never forget. Thank you! 🙏 🤩

Our experience at Reef Oasis Dive Club was absolutely amazing and became one of the highlights of our entire trip! My husband and I completed our Open Water certification with the club, as well as Nitrox certification. We also had the opportunity to do a night dive and join an unforgettable excursion to Tiran Island with three amazing dives. Every dive was well organized, safe and full of incredible marine life and beautiful underwater landscapes. A very special thank you to Hamada, who guided us throughout our diving experience. From the very beginning, he was incredibly professional, patient, friendly and supportive. He made us feel safe and confident both during the training and underwater, while also making every dive exciting and enjoyable. Thanks to Hamada, we not only completed our certifications but also discovered how incredible the underwater world of the Red Sea is. The night dive was a truly special experience, and the trip to Tiran Island with three dives was one of the absolute highlights of our holiday. We are truly grateful to Hamada and the entire Reef Oasis Dive Club team for their professionalism, care and hospitality. They made our first diving experience so special and created memories we will remember for a very long time. We would absolutely love to come back and continue exploring the underwater world with Hamada and the team. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a professional, friendly and reliable dive club in Sharm El Sheikh! 🤿🐠

I completed my Open Water Diver course, and my wife completed a refresher course at Reef Oasis Dive Club in Sharm El Sheikh, with Hamada Capo as ours instructor. A huge thank you for the professional training, excellent guidance, and patience with us throughout the course. And a special thank you to Hamada for helping us become dive buddies! 🤿❤️ We’re looking forward to many more dives together! 🌊🤿

I completed my Open Water Diver course through Reef Oasis Dive Club in Sharm-el-Sheikh with Hamada Capo as my instructor. It has been an incredible experience, from practicing in the pool to diving amongst turtles, sting rays, and all kinds of beautiful fish and corals, and and I can definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to try diving!

I recently completed my Open Water course with Zakaria, and I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. His professionalism, knowledge, and dedication were exceptional. He was patient, thorough, and made sure I understood not only the skills, but also the importance of safety underwater. I always felt in safe hands thanks to his excellent preparation and knowledge of different diving techniques. Beyond teaching the course, Zakaria genuinely shared his passion for the underwater world and helped me build confidence as a diver. I highly recommend Zakaria to anyone looking to learn to dive!

This was an excellent introduction to diving. The staff were kind, friendly and patient and Ayman, the instructor was great. I hope to return soon, this experience will be difficult to beat.

I took the OWD course with the reef oasis dive club team. Thank you very much to the team and my instructor Ash for the professionalism, support, cool collaboration and a unique friendly atmosphere and positivity) I will definitely come back for advance;)

Clear instructions, plenty of patience, good equipment. Too profit-driven. Money comes before safety, and the photos and videos are sold at very, very high prices, taking precedence over the experience of discovering marine life. A bit of a shame, even though everything went very well.

It’s was outstanding experience,, under the outstanding instructor MR .Ayman

Great experience with the team and Ash our diving crew instructor, great explanations and very clam, would recommend 10 out of 10.

It was so good trip i did open water course with the best instructor ever ashraf ali he was so kind helpful and he helped me alot l ove him and also the front office ganna she helped me in reservetion and hatem back staff all was good

Definitely Recommend Ashraf Ali the GOAT !!!

Dive instructor Ayman was fabulous, great teacher. Had a really good few days learning to dive. Would definitely recommend

This was my first trip to Egypt, and at first I only wanted to try scuba diving once. But thanks to the amazing team at Reef Oasis Dive Club, I ended up completing the full Open Water course and receiving my diving certification! A special thank you to my instructors, Ahmed Negm and Ghofran Maltan. They made the training not only informative and professional, but also enjoyable, exciting, and full of positive emotions. The practical sessions were clear, safe, and fun. Spending my time learning to dive turned out to be much more interesting than simply lying on the beach. There was also a funny moment: at first, everyone thought I was Italian, even though I am actually from Russia. It became a great running joke and made the experience even more memorable. I would also like to thank Ashram, whom I met on the beach. He was the person who first told me about diving and explained what the courses included. Without him, this adventure might never have started. Thank you to the entire team for the knowledge, support, great company, and unforgettable experience. I am leaving Egypt not only with wonderful memories and photos, but also as a certified diver. Highly recommended! Arrivederci e grazie di cuore! Nikita from Russia

My daughter completed her PADI Scuba diver training with Reef Oasis aged 11. From her first dive, it was clear she was in good hands. The instructors were not only exceptionally knowledgeable- but knew how to perfectly balance the learning experience for a younger learner, having great fun along the way. My daughter loved her instructor and continues to talk about how wonderful she was. I couldn’t recommend the dive school enough - all the staff are very approachable and offered advice and support throughout her training.

Our experience at Reef Oasis Dive Club surpassed all expectations. I completed PADI refresher (after 17 years away from diving), my 10yo daughter was a first time diver, undertaking her open water course. The team are so knowledgeable, friendly, caring, organised and professional. We had helpful email communication before we arrived so we knew how our week would work and my daughter undertook her PADI theory course and exam before we arrived (thank you Shouman for the email help). On arrival, the dive team quickly sized and sorted us out with kit and boxes and we met our amazing instructor Cristina, she got us started right away and took my daughter through her open water skills and assessment during the week, I was able to book and join the open water dives. Cristina helped with everything and went over and above expectations, nothing was ever too much trouble; enabling internet access for the PADI website, keeping my daughter confident when she was initially struggling with equalising, lending her own mask and overall really caring about her students as well as ensuring we had so much fun. Her instruction was clear and very thorough, and at every stage I felt my daughter was completely safe. The explanations and skills were always delivered with kindness, patience and an understanding of her student. The team work so well together, there was plenty of laughter throughout the week. The dive helper boys provided extra checks on equipment, carried my daughter's kit for her, simply smiled when they got trod on by the odd fin, nothing was ever too much trouble and everyone was so nice. We loved it all so much that after the open water was passed, we arranged a boat trip to Tiran. Our guide for the 3 dives from the boat was Hany, (my 10yo was up for all 3 dives after gaining so much confidence during her week of teaching with Cristina) , Hany was also professional and I felt my daughter was very safe in his hands. He was super with her when she got sea sick and really understood how to work with young divers. He was also very kind and forgiving around buoyancy challenges! We saw some fantastic reef life during our week, including a huge turtle, lots of blue spotted rays, beautiful coral and many many lovely reef fishes big and small. The team worked so well together to give us an absolutely perfect diving holiday. Cristina was an absolute star and we can't thank her enough for an amazing week. If you are looking for a fabulous dive school who will give your child a positive experience, ensure they really understand their equipment, and complete their skills properly, and safely for the best start to their diving journey (as well as have a lot of fun and see some beautiful reef) then this is the place to book. Can't wait to return!!

A very good instructor very good explained and patient

**An Amazing Dive School – Exceptional Instructor, Ashraf Ali** We cannot recommend Reef Oasis Blue Bay Dive School highly enough, and in particular, we would like to give a huge thank you to **Ashraf Ali**, who has been an incredible diving instructor for our 11-year-old son. Two years ago, Ashraf introduced our son to diving by guiding him through his **Bubble Maker course**. He was absolutely amazing with him — so caring, patient and encouraging — that when we returned to Sharm El Sheikh, there was no question that we wanted Ashraf to continue teaching him. We are now incredibly proud that, with Ashraf's support, guidance and encouragement, our son has successfully achieved his **Junior PADI Licence**. Watching his confidence and love for diving grow has been wonderful, and Ashraf has played such an important part in that journey. Ashraf is a truly fantastic instructor. He puts **safety first**, while teaching in such a positive, supportive and enjoyable way. He has a wonderful ability to make children feel comfortable and confident in the water, whilst ensuring they learn the skills and responsibilities that come with diving. The **Blue Bay Dive School** itself is also incredible, with fantastic facilities and excellent equipment, making it a brilliant place to learn and develop as a diver. **Thank you so much, Ashraf, for everything you have done for our son.** We are so grateful for your care, patience and dedication. We will definitely be back soon, and we can't wait for our son to continue his diving journey and work towards his **Advanced course** with your support and guidance. You are a fantastic instructor, Ashraf, and we couldn't have wished for anyone better to teach our son. **Thank you! We will see you again soon!**

Ashraf was a wonderful diving instructor. We had 4 open water and 1 closed water dives. Everything was great. Course took 2 days.

What an absolute stunning dive centre. Amazing staff who are the friendliest people you’ll meet. I came here in march and went from being terrified to put my face in the water to then doing my DSD and then scuba diver course. I couldn’t have done it without the BEST instructor ever - Hany. He is so incredibly patient and knowledgeable. We’ve come back here this time so I could complete my open water course because I only wanted to do that with Hany ! This man deserves a pay rise ! I could go on and on about how wonderful he is but if your lucky enough to do your training with this man then you’re onto an absolute blinder, I can’t recommend him enough 😊😊😊😊

I took a diving course in the pool at the Reef Oasis Hotel, and the next day I went diving in the sea. I had a fantastic time. I'm a beginner, so I was first trained with a small group, and they explained and demonstrated everything. Ashraf led the training and guidance, making sure everything was done correctly, and supervised everything. Overall, I'm glad I tried it and will definitely come back again.

Hello everyone, we were in the reef oasis dive club, our instructor was ash, he conducted an excellent theoretical briefing to begin with, then there was a dive into the pool, worked out the fast necessary commands, learned to assemble the equipment on our own, connecting the cylinder, the next day we repeated the instruction again, equipped ourselves and from the pier began to dive into the sea, to a depth of 12 meters, the dive lasted 37 minutes, in the sea we managed to see the stingray, a seashell, a turtle and a large number of different fish. I recommend this company and instructor ash, a person knows his business and knows how to joke at a depth of 12 meters.

I had a great experience completing my Open Water Diver course with instructor Ayman Ali. He was professional, patient, and very knowledgeable throughout the entire training process. His explanations were clear and easy to understand, which helped build confidence both in the classroom and underwater. Ayman paid close attention to safety while keeping the course enjoyable and relaxed. He took the time to answer every question and made sure all skills were mastered before moving on. Thanks to his guidance, I felt comfortable and confident during my dives. I highly recommend Ayman Ali to anyone looking to learn diving or improve their skills. He is an excellent instructor who genuinely cares about his students and their progress.

I completed my Open Water Diver certification with Ashram and had a great experience from start to finish. The course was both fun and educational, and I learned a lot during the training dives. The instructors were patient, professional, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire course. They explained everything clearly and helped build my confidence underwater and now feel much more confident diving independently. I would definitely recommend Ashram to anyone looking to get their Open Water certification in Sharm El Sheikh!

My experience was very nice. I do the open water course. The instructor Ash very nice and funny, and all the team its very professional.

I had a great experience with this instructor. He was very patient, professional, and explained everything clearly, which made me feel comfortable and confident throughout the lesson! Recommended to everyone Aymen Ali! Thank you!

Great experience, instructor (Ayman) calm very attentive to my needs, good equipments, wonderful location and undersea life, calm and warm water. U would recommend this site for everyone who want to become a PADI diver.

Ayman is the great PADI instructor!!!

Great experience with coach Al Rady. My friend and I both got our open water license smoothly. Would come again for advance open water license!

It was really really good and Al Rady is the best instructor we have ever seen! He is so nice and we truly loved him and the experience! ❤️💗The admission fee is valid and nice, we are staying here for 4 days and I was able to get my OW certificate! The Red Sea is so beautiful and absolutely amazing! All the staff are nice and prepared so many for us! There are not many people on the shore and it was a very nice atmosphere!! Love it! The pictures by Mustafa is very good! The best is the Al Rady!

The experience is amazing and the teacher Ayman will take care of you in every moment Thanks a lot and for sure I will see you soon

I completed my diving course! Excellent school led by professional instructor Ash. Several dives in the training pool, then a sea dive to a depth of 18 meters! I received my Open Water Diving certificate! I will continue my training! I highly recommend instructor Ash.

I completed my Open Water Diver training with instructor Ash. It was an amazing experience! We had five dives in the sea and several sessions in the pool, where we practiced all the required skills. Ash was a great instructor — he explained everything clearly and demonstrated each skill step by step. During the dives, we saw a turtle, a manta ray, stingrays, and many incredible fish.

I visited this hotel with my wife and we had a great time. During our vacation, we completed the PADI Open Water Diver course. We were trained by Ash, an excellent instructor who guided us through a series of dives in both confined and open water, providing plenty of practical training sessions. The course was amazing, and Ash is a fantastic instructor.

It was amazing. Ayman is big professional!

It was amazing! Ayman is big professional!

The best teacher you can have, Ahmed Gouda. Ask for him and everything will be perfect. It's like a dream!

I and my wife did a short course with Ash. This was a wonderful experience. Ash is an excellent teacher with a perfect blend of professionalism, kindness and humour. We enjoyed every moment of the course. Diving is longer a scary challenge, but a great fun.

I had the best experience with the reef oasis dive club to get my PADI open water, and especially with my diving instructor Hossam. He is super friendly and calm, helps you with everything and is an absolute pleasure to have as your diving instructor. I would recommend this center and Hossam to everyone who would like to become a diver.

The diving course was really great. Ayman was a fantastic instructor; it was a lot of fun with him. He was very patient and answered all my questions thoroughly. I'm happy to be back.
