Hi all,
we are new to diving - just got our OWD done - and planning a trip to Egypt, Hurgada/Safaga or Marsa Alam.
I was wondering if you can just go and rent a scuba bottles, grab your stuff, walk to the beach and start exploring house reef etc, or do you really need to pay x amount of Euros for "House reef diving" or "shore diving" ?
(some hotels even have a long pier all the way to the house reef...)
Of course we'd start by doing a couple of dives with someone who knows the waters etc, but do most of the latter dives independently?
Thanks for everyone contributing!
Cheers
Matti
