Celebrating International Women’s Day in the Red Sea
International Women’s
Day on 8th March is the perfect
opportunity to celebrate the growing number of women discovering the incredible
world of scuba diving in the Red Sea. Over the last decade, more women
than ever before have taken the plunge — whether learning to dive for the first
time or exploring some of the world’s most famous reefs.
More Women Are
Discovering Scuba Diving
Scuba diving is no longer seen as a
male-dominated activity. Today, thousands of women around the world are
discovering the freedom, adventure, and confidence that diving offers. From
beginners taking their first breaths underwater to experienced divers joining
dive trips and mini safaris or liveaboards, the community of female divers
continues to grow every year.
The Red Sea has become one of the
most popular destinations for women who want to explore the underwater world.
With warm, clear water, colourful coral reefs, and abundant marine life, scuba
diving in the Red Sea offers an ideal environment for both beginners and
experienced divers.
Learn to Dive in Sharm
el Sheikh and Dahab
If you’re thinking about trying
diving for the first time, the Red Sea is one of the best places in the world
to start. Many travellers choose to learn to dive in Sharm el Sheikh, one of
Egypt’s most famous diving destinations.
Another option for those divers who
prefer to escape the bright lights of a city is taking a short break to our dive centre in Dahab to learn to dive.
Scuba diving in the Red Sea offers
beautiful reefs with professional instructors, and a relaxed atmosphere that
makes learning to dive safe, fun, and unforgettable.

environment for all divers. Whether you're joining daily diving trips or

friends choose Egypt because the Red Sea diving community is welcoming and

trips, and a strong international diving culture, Egypt is widely considered a
safe and comfortable destination for women who want to travel and dive.
Celebrating Women in

The diving community will also come
together later this year to celebrate PADI Women’s Dive Day in July, the
largest global event dedicated to women in scuba diving.

special dives and activities to mark the occasion at both their South Sinai
dive centres in Dahab and Sharm el Sheikh, so keep an eye on our website and
