Ladies and Gentlemen, after a many hours of studying the PADI open water book, I am finally a Padi Open Water Diver! Alot of people thought it couldn't be done, but alas I did! And it was all thanks to Richard Keaney! His stunning underwater photographs inspired me to take up diving, and if it wasn't for Richard and the... More

I pre-booked the Open water diving course with Black Rock for myself and my son to complete during a weeks holiday to Egypt. Black rock were exceptionally welcoming. The tuition was thorough and professional, as well as tremendous fun. Our instructor persevered with a young 14 year old as well as his father whose vision was a real hindrance. We... More

We visited Black Rock last year to snorkel, saying we'd return to learn to dive. We did! Hayden and his great team proved to be every bit as professional, patient and helpful as when we went snorkelling. We'd highly recommend Black Rock to anyone thinking of learning to dive. The instructors are excellent and the whole team well organised and... More

Very friendly staff but also very professional. Had the best dives and every dive was better than the first one. We got answers and professional advice on every our question. We also hot good British humor and had best trip to Bedouin restaurant organized by Sally the empress. Dive masters Abby and Vivi were the best and very inspirational. Giant... More

Having worked in the dive industry, I'm a stickler for standards of teaching, guides and equipment in SCUBA - given the nature of the sport you only really want to dive with a company that take your safety seriously. I have to say, Black Rock are meticulous about checking customer certifications, fitting your gear correctly and checking your dive skills... More

I have been diving with Black Rock since 2008. They have consistently provided first class training on PADI courses and a safe, thoroughly enjoyable dive experience. My winter break this year was no exception. I took the PADI Nitrox Diver course with Hayden and a ten day dive package. As ever the tuition was thorough and made interesting and relevant... More

Egyptian unrest meant the Sinai had a poor tourist year in 2011but being so far from mainland Cairo it remains a great place for a combined windsurfing and diving holiday, and very competitively priced. Blackrock answered endless emails before our trip about courses, costs etc and were welcoming, friendly and flexible throughout our stay. The new location, facilities and equipment... More

As a regular visitor to Dahab, I wouldn't dive with anyone else. The Black Rock team always make me feel very welcome, and they take care of everything so well that all I have to do is relax and enjoy the diving. Nothing seems too much trouble, and they never forget you're on holiday so there's never any pressure. The... More

Wie came to Dahab to enjoy the Sun and to habe some relaxed days. Black Rock changed it to the most amazing vacation we've ever had! Snorkling with Sally, diving lesson with Richard and all the other things they offer are fantastic. And the best of all I think is the staff (all of them). Wie did not feel as... More
