We did our Padi AOWD in February 2022 there and it was great.Diving Instructor was very capable and always tried to attend to our needs.The whole crew is great! They always have an eye on you when setting up the diving gear.The house-reef is amazing! Its so close, you can walk there. Many variations of corals and small colorful fishes.We also did a wreck-dive at around 27 Meters, which was very cool!Thanks for the great time!

Some wonderful diving with these guys. The manager Diesel has been great in helping me make the most of my time here. Doing 18 dives in 9 days. Had a stunning trip down to Abu Dabbab and Elphinstone, even managed to see a massive pod of dolphins on the way there, well worth it. The divemasters Mahmood and Gelgel are great guys, and super helpful with all your needs. Stunning house reef as well, literally on your doorstep!

Master Diving is very professional and has fantastic teachers. I did my PADI open water diving course in 3 days then today had the most amazing dive for fun. The coral reefs they take you to are amazing! Ive swam with large rays, learnt to dance under water, seen so many fish, a Moray Eel and many more. I would highly recommend diving with them.

The best place to have made my first diving experiences and successfully achieve the open water diver license! Instructor Assad was super professional and I felt safe at all times. From wonderful fish and corals to under water dances I didn’t miss a thing! Everybody was super friendly and we had a lot of fun! A can only recommend the the master diving center for diving as a beginner or advanced! Thanks again to the whole team for this experience.

Tried diving the first time ever and it was an amazing experience with this team of professionals!For 6 hours, we did 2 dives (20 minutes session each) following with 30 minute sessions of snorkelling after each dive, as well as delicious oriental cuisine for lunch. Definitely gonna repeat the experience with the Master Diving Centre team again next time we are in Hurghada!

My girlfriend and I decided to take a spontaneous vacation in Egypt. Directly in front of our hotel is the diving school Master Diving Center. So after a great taster dive day we completed the Open Water Diver (OWD) in a two-day diving course. Our diving instructor Assad and the staff took super care of us and taught us how to dive. First in the pool, then directly at the coral reef. All in all a great experience! I can only recommend.

My boyfriend and I just got back from a weeks stay at Serenity Makadi Bay - we went on a dive taster day on a boat from Hurghada with the Master Diving Centre and it was epic. The reef was amazing and our dive instructor Assad was brilliant. All of guys at the centre were great too, especially Mostafa who sorted everything for us, and so we decided to complete our Padi Open Water Divers license with them on the spectacular house reef, right outside the dive centre.The whole experience felt safe and super professional, but also fun! A massive highlight of our trip. Wouldnt hesitate to recommend to anyone wanting a high quality dive experience - well definitely be back for more diving soon!

A brilliant diving centre with a friendly and knowledgeable crew of instructors who are passionate about teaching their Scuba diving courses.They offer a range of diving options at various locations in Hurgada- each with the incredible scenery of corals and fish.I took the Scuba course where I learned theory and practical skills in a heated pool then moved on to a half-day boat ride with multiple diving opportunities around some of the local reefs. I am now a qualified diver!They have something for everyone to enjoy.

These people are awesome!I got my PADI open water certification whilst on holiday, despite having never dived before. This was only possible due to the patience, skill and expertise of the master diving team. I really like their approach to teaching, which combines professionalism with a sense of fun. I had a great time, and I would recommend them (and diving) to anybody.Asaad and mustapha - take care, and thank you again!

The scenery is amazing. something like a disney movie. the memories will stay with me forever.as a bonus we saw sea turtles.cant express how much i liked it.In the end ive got my Padi license for diving in open water with a max depth of 18m.i want to thank the entire team Ahmad, Mostafa, Diesel, Mohammed, Tito.Best team you can imagine.will definitely be back at master diving center again! highly recommended

Fantastic diving experience with Master Diving Center Makadi bay. First day diving on the house reef to refresh the skills and start my Rescue Diver with Day 2 on the comfortable boat Winner. Well looked after on the boat, every one helpful from the Dive Lead Mr Ahmed, Mr Abdo, Mr Faris, Mr Mahmoud and Mohammed. And not forgetting the most important person, Chef Gordon (aka Ramsey). Highly recommended. 5*

A very happy day with Abdo, Ahmed , Faress, And Captain Of Winner !

Review №21

They gave away our scuba suits(4 people) after the first dive to some other people on the boat, who didnt have any and were not supposed to dive that day, but decided on the spot. After that, they asked us where were our suits(before the second dive) as if we were supposed to know, after they gave them to other people. Mind that this is not hygienic and unheard of in a full scale pandemic. Also, the dives were maximum 10 minutes long, so not much to see. I had a better experience snorkeling in front of the resort. Everything is rushed and money oriented. The least effort for the maximum profit. Also one of the oxygen tanks was loose and cracked open on the boat, so that is definitely not safe, someone could have been hurt. I would not recommend.

A cosy, little dive shop situated right by the beach on the serenity hotel premises. The staff is multilingual, competent and helpful in every way. Dives are offered either within walking distance at the house reef, where check dives are conducted, or from the boat. Nitrox is free and the equipment basic but in good condition. Every Diver gets his own box where all equipment is stored for the duration of his stay, so nothing gets lost and gearing up is quick since nobody has to scour the building for a fitting pair of fins.Dives are conducted with aluminum tanks (DIN valve), standard bcds, weight belts and 5mm shorties if you use rental gear. Briefings are brief and to the point, dives are tailored to the level of expertise. Pre-dive safety checks are conducted properly and the dives done in a safe manner - there was never a situation that felt dicey.Boat dives started with a bus ride from the dive center to Hurghada marina, then a one hour boat trip to dive sites around Gifting Island. The guides know the dive sites well and the staff go out of their way to accommodate everyone - I brought my toddler and non-diving partner for the trip. They could jump in for a bit of snorkeling and the trip was worth their while; also very relaxing with only 10 guests aboard compared to other boats we saw on the way which looked like they would capsize any moment because of the crowded upper decks.House reef diving starts from the hotel jetty, three minutes walk from the dive center along the beach. You descend the stairs into the water and are floating above the steep drop off thats leveling out at 50m or so, mostly out of sight, so its essentially a wall dive in most places, with lots of coral and marine life typical for the red sea. House reef dives were possible even when water access was closed for the snorkeling crowd due to high waves (or the lifeguards lack of confidence in the hotel guests swimming abilities), but getting in and out if the water wasnt really an issue.To wrap it up - a conveniently situated dive center with a friendly, forthcoming, professional staff that I would love to dive with again.

We dived for several days in January 2021 with these guys. Top service and showed us some great dive sites.We were staying just north of Hurghada and they picked us up on time each day and took us to the Marina in Hurghada. You don’t need to be a hotel guest to use these guys.We completed out Master Scuba Diver Certification on this trip and were super happy with the service received.Can’t recommend Master Diver more highly 😀Cheers guys

We wanted to do something special on the last day of 2019 and decided to do so snorkelling and scuba diving. It was an amazing experience given that our group of 11 had never done either. Some of us did not know swimming either. The day was made better by Abdul who was our instructor. He took special care of each one of us and made us comfortable to give us this amazing experience. The crew in the boat were so welcoming and friendly. The food was hot and served on time and we all enjoyed the food served by Ahmed. All in all really happy. Truly amazing experience!! Highly recommended.

Just back from a week here with my family. As a PADI instructor, I was very impressed with their operation. Always friendly staff, good quality kit and the other instructors I saw working in the pool (or guiding us on our boat trip), looked patient, highly skilled and fluent in any language you could choose! House reef is excellent, we did 6 dives on it and didnt get bored (and always saw something new). Tanks in all different sizes suited the kids and they were quite happy with me teaching my children without interference and helped with kit etc when needed. Weights and tanks are brought to the jetty by the equipment boys and so you just have to carry your other kit from the dive centre. All very easy if youre staying at the Serenity beach hotel. Highly recommended

Review №55

The best trip we have taken in hurghada as a family, we saw the dolphins at the dolphin house close up then when we went snorkelling we had a once in a lifetime experience of swimming with dolphins so close you could touch them! They were within reach of us and it was like we had our own private session with them, as well as seeing incredible fishes of all sizes. The crew on the Queen Samira were fantastic and the food provided was beautiful! Mhmoud, our guide, was excellent and looked after us really well. We would highly recommend this trip to anyone who visits hurghada and makadi, with children of all ages. Thankyou for the great day out!

Abdul was our guide in Scuba diving, most of us not done the swimming in the past but Abdul gave us confident and we did 2 jumps. Without his help and guide it is impossible to do the dive.I can refer Master Diving 100%, I am happy that I choose Master Diving for our Scuba Diving in Red Sea. Abdul was great instructor and I recommend Abdul and Master Diving for Scuba Diving.

I cannot rate Ahmed and the his team enough. They are all highly experienced and professional. They all deserve a mention. Asad, Sherif, Sasa, Mahmoud, Deisel, Abdul, Gil Gil, Mustapha, Tito and the guys who get all the gear prepared, whos names have escaped me. (Hope I havent missed anyone)The house reef at Serenity Beach Hotel (which is a fantastic hotel) is an amazing dive spot alone, an abundance of fish can be seen, lion fish, stone fish, crocodile fish, spotted Rays, triger fish octopus, even the odd turtle and many more.Boat trips are offered regularly, a short trip to Hurghada, and worth doing. Visiting numerous dive sites and wrecks. Generally 2 dives. Lunch is always good, crew are very helpful, refreshments served for the duration.I have my own gear, but the gear they provide is very good, and generally brand new.Nitrox is available, but needs to be requested, as do 15lt tanks, just incase youve big lungs.They offer all levels of padi training, from try dives, open water, advanced open water, enriched air.. and so on.Over last few years I have completed my advanced, rescue and nitrox with these guys.Master dive centre is a real treasure.Thanks for another 2 weeks of great diving!!!

Review №71

Overpriced boat trips at least (Aqua Fun).(glassboat = old fishing boat with a small 2-stroke outboard from the 80s.) Asking for 100 EUR for 3 hours / 10 miles, which is more than a doctor earns in a month in Egypt :-OIf you are interested in old mechanics and dont mind the bit shabby facilies and can bargain the price somewhere near a quarter what they are asking for, then you might consider this. The sea itself is rich and beautiful near Safaga too. On the small sand bank there is nothing to see.Ask to see for the route on map too and a real pictures of the boat before booking/paying.(They tend to show easily pictures from neighbors boat if you are not careful ;-)
