You will then practice essential skills in shallow, calm water until you feel fully comfortable. After that, you complete your open water dives from the boat, where you apply your skills under direct instructor supervision. Throughout the course, we move step-by-step at a comfortable pace. By the end, you will be certified to dive up to 18 meters worldwide.

5.00I did the PADI open water course at Dive Nemo. Pleasant informal team, very good instructor and good equipment. The emphasis is on safety but also on fun. The crew on the boat was also knowledgeable
Amazing diving school

5.00I had an incredible experience taking the OWD course here. The instructors were friendly, explained everything really well, helped us where we needed it. A driver picked us up from our hotel and brought us back afterwards each day, so we didn't have any trouble reaching the boat either, which was great. Each dive we did was at a different, beautiful location, and the fact that everything was done out in open water meant that, during the training dives, we would do some of our skills, and then just do the rest of the dive for fun. I would be very happy to come back some time for the AOWD course (which I would have taken right then and there had the weather been better...)
Great time diving with DiveNemo in Hurghada.

5.00Everything was arranged perfectly!!! Everything was organized from the Netherlands. We were able to do the Open Water Diver theory at home and the practical part at Duikschool Nemo. We were picked up from the hotel and dropped off again. We went diving for 4 days and learned everything at a relaxed pace. Attaching and detaching the BCD to your tank, the weight belt, changing your BCD on the water, taking your mask off and putting it on underwater. We learned everything we needed to learn to successfully complete the course. Food on the boat was also well organized. Something for everyone, even for picky eaters like my son. Instructor Ahmed really took the time to explain everything calmly and thoroughly. All in all, highly recommended for anyone who wants to learn to dive in a relaxed way.
Incredible

5.00We had an excellent day diving with Dive Nemo! The dive sites are incredible, the guide took the time to show us many things during the dive, and we never felt rushed. Safety is truly a strong point as well, both on the boat, with the equipment check, and underwater. The dive sites were not crowded with tourists: we were almost alone in the world. The staff is very kind and attentive. I highly recommend it 100% 🤩
Lovely Diving experience

5.00Really reccomend Diving with Nemo! The guides/instructors are so nice, and we'll trained. We felt super welcome from the beginning. Communication went smoothly, and the food (which is included btw) is good! The crew on board helps you A LOT! They help preparing your equipment, get you out of the water... We booked diving for 3 days, but because we liked it so much with them we booked an extra day 👌🏼 Please bring euros in cash to pay them. They highly appreciate it, and you can see the right amount on their website.
Amazing experience

5.00Had a fantastic first diving experience here. Everything was perfectly fine. The coaches Ahmed and Emad immediately reassured us by the clear expertise and smile. The material was also clearly taken care of. Everyone on the boat was ready to help you if needed. The dive sites are beautiful in the Red Sea, there is very waxy beauty underwater that they are only too happy to share with you. They know the spots clearly and know well where the most beautiful or special places are. In short, ideal for a novice or experienced diver to go on an adventure with them among all that the sea has to offer. After three days I could look back with a happy feeling and enjoy the time I spent there together with a diving diploma.
Fantastic experience

5.00We really had a fantastic experience at Diving Center Nemo! Thanks to Ahmed and Emad we felt completely safe the whole time. They are super professional and give clear instructions, but also make time for spontaneous chat and jokes, which made everything very relaxed. We have obtained our PADI Open Water here and are very happy to have done so with them. The dive sites were beautiful: we saw octopuses, stingrays, beautiful coral and so much more. Truly unforgettable moments underwater! The material was also in good order and checked, which gave a lot of confidence. On the boat there was also a super fun atmosphere: music, a dance before you enter the water, and always help with everything. You feel really welcome and well cared for. An experience I won’t soon forget, a new world opened up! 🥰
Professional, safe, and absolutely beautiful diving experience

5.00I had an excellent experience during my diving course. Communication was always quick and easy, which made the whole organization process very smooth from the beginning. The team was extremely professional, and throughout the course I always felt safe, well guided, and confident underwater. I also really appreciated that my friend, who already had a diving certificate, could easily join the dives with me. The diving spots were absolutely stunning. Overall, a fantastic experience that I would highly recommend to anyone looking to learn diving or simply enjoy amazing dives with a professional team.
