- V8812SLnicolak0 contributionsPerfect t boat tourGreat crew took us out snorkeling and to orange bay. Really lovely bunch of guys. Think lead man. Was Kamil who was great with my 7 year old granddaughter teaching her to snorkel. She does not like strangers normally but she took to him straight away. Really appeared as of they loved their job. Thank you allWritten 9 September 2024
- 147lie0 contributionsGreat OWD ExperienceI completed my OWD lessons with crazy dolphin. It was a great experience. Every instructor is super nice, knowledgeable, and patient. They made sure that I am comfortable moving forward with each step. They gave me as much time as I need to learn every skill. I felt safe learning and diving with my instructors. The equipment is well maintained. I completed 4 dives, and on every dive I saw beautiful coral reefs and countless marine lives. The entire booking, registration, transportation processes were smooth. I would consider complete my AOW course with Crazy Dolphin. Highly recommend.Written 22 August 2024
- FernandesMarta0 contributionsRecomendedAs a certified diver I can recommend the Crazy Dolphin Scuba Diving Centre. They did everything to make the diving a 5 stars experienceWritten 25 June 2024
- William H0 contributionsScubba diving and snorkelingFirst we approached crazy dolphin on the Tuesday 11/6/24 we meet a man called Bond who was very professional and informative. ( not pushy on sales at all but was genuinely nice on getting some information before making our decision) We paid 50% deposit with the remaining balance paid on the day. We was collected by car outside our hotel ( alma sun rise) at 08.30 hrs driven a short distance about 2 minutes and we was welcomed by Bond and Abdul (the dive instructor) I'm a qualified advanced diver and showed my dive card to the instructor who checked my certification with padi. We filled some paperwork out and went through my sizes to make sure all my equipment was a perfect fit. We boarded the boat and got a seat on the top floor,with plenty of shade but also areas to sunbath if required. With lovely veiw. Once everyone was on the boat we set to sea. The instructor (abdul) came and explained where we was going to dive and went through a safety talk and made sure everyone was happy. I havnt dived in some time, they gave me options to go and dive with some of the other professional divers at a slightly deeper depth (obviously using the buddy system) but I was happy diving with the other guest with there first dive experience and the instructor was more than happy. I set up my own equipment but was double checked by the instructor. I had asked for a 15 liter tank as I use a lot of air and this was put in place for me. We entered the water I followed the instructor and the first time divers throughout the dive looking at some lovely coral and many beautiful fish all the time the instructor was making sure I was ok by using the ok diving system. On resurfacing I got my kit off and had the opportunity to go snorkeling with my wife, wich was a lovely experience. Had some cold refreshments water and soft drinks before my second dive, they gave me another 15 liter tank which I set up and and quickly got back in the water again following the instructor and some other first time divers.the instructor took some really good quality photos and videos of me diving. Once all the dives was completed we had some lunch ( noodles, chicken, rice and some other things very good size portions and lovely warm food) the instructor uploaded all of the top quality pictures to my phone via his laptop, I paid a small fee for this but was very happy for the photos and videos. We made our way back to land with plenty of shaded areas on the boat as mentioned if you wanted to sunbath there was areas for this. Felt relaxed and very much enjoyed the experience from start to finish. We will be definitely booking another dive trip with crazy dolphin in due course. All potential and professional staff 10 out 10 and would highly recommend anyone coming to hurgarder to try crazy dolphin and enjoy the experienceWritten 14 June 2024
- Roam158134803060 contributionsGreat trip. Could have been better.Really enjoyed our day out, picked up outside our hotel just before 8am, arrived at the boat just before 9. Very friendly and helpful staff quickly organised the boat and set off, starting with some complimentary water sports (sofa and banana boat) the first stop at paradise island was lovely, although the island itself is organising people like soldiers, takes a while to be able to relax. After 90 minutes on the island it was back to the boat for lunch. Lovely food, very tasty and organised well. Able to have seconds should you want it so nobody went hungry. Soft drinks were complimentary all day which had a good selection of fizzy and still. Then the snorkeling, the marine life and underwater world is incredible. I find the only downside being the dive unstructors organisation. Every 15 seconds shouting at the top of their lungs to follow them, spent more time above the water chasing an Olympic swimmer, than being able to swim and enjoy the corals and marine life. It felt very rushed rather than having an extra member of staff in the water so one person didn't have 30 people very close to him while all swimmers bouncing off each other. We were in the ocean and it felt very cramped. Overall a very nice trip, friendly staff and throughly enjoyed.Written 14 May 2024
- Seaside502841382530 contributionsA true dolphin day.From start to finish our diving experience was absolutely fantastic, from the crew on the boat to our instructor Abdelrhman, a special mention to Abdelrhman, he was superb with my girlfriend who was making her first ever dive, he was so patient, took great care in building her confidence in the water, he was excellent. We had a lucky day, as we saw 4 different pods of dolphins, one pod had around 10 dolphins in it, including a baby dolphin. Just a fantastic day and we will definitely use crazy dolphin again. Thank you.Written 1 February 2024
- Anna K0 contributionsThe most amazing trip in HurghadaI recommend everyone to go on this trip, it doesn't matter what age you are, the crew will provide attractions for everyone. Lots of fun, friendliness, smiles and professionalism! It was my first time snorkeling and the instructor made sure I felt good and safe, special thanks to Sam for that! I hope that one day I will be able to do it again.Written 24 December 2023
- kkaramchandani0 contributionsGreat experienceRecently certified advanced scuba diving, did my first dive in Hurgada Egypt with the Crazy Dolphin, had a fantastic time. Did 2 dives at Small G It was fantastic, the Coral was beautiful so was the sea life got some amazing videos and images. What made it for me was our dive master Adam who was just fantastic. He directed us to the sea life that I would have otherwise missed. Patient while I took my images and videos and above all made sure that we were all safe . Lunch was served after the 2 dives, which was pretty good. Unlimited water and soft drinks during the trip. Bottom line: Will definitely come back and highly recommend this dive centerWritten 3 November 2023

- U6102VDjoannec0 contributionsDiving with Crazy Dolphin Diving CenterGreat experience! Very seasoned dive operation and well run by Hady the owner. Had a bit of a complicated travel schedule and he made it work out for me. Several times I was in contact and very prompt replies and very accommodating to say the least! Lots of staff to help with any of your needs, good rentals (Scubapro) boats are big, comfortable and well maintained and equipped. If you don’t get to boat dive do the house reef for sure! Most house reefs take a lot of pressure and it does show some signs but overall an excellent dive! Thanks Guys!! Tim CodlingWritten 3 October 2023
- filipelteixeira0 contributionsI wouldn’t select any other agency or instructors (kudos Abdul and Hamdi)We went for a full day in the boat which included 2 intro scuba diving experiences and lunch on board. I had already done scuba diving in the Red Sea but it was my wife first time scuba diving, she has some breathing issues which made the first experience kind of troublesome but the instructor was really amazing, to the point that she waited for him for the second diving point. The instructor, Hamdi, was amazing and very thoughtful, he didn’t let her quit and helped her along the way. In the end, the second diving point went superb and she loved it. In my case I already had some experience and Abdul, the instructor, gave me some room to explore but always stayed near me asking me if I was ok. The entire experience is very safe they have all the necessary training and procedures to ensure safety, although very strict, it’s for our own safety and I appreciated that. It was also the only boat that I saw accompanied by a fast boat to transport anyone to shore in case of a medical emergency. If it’s your first time scuba diving and you’re afraid because Egypt is probably not the safest place in the world, I can only recommend you to book with Crazy Dolphin for you first diving experience. Not related to the agency by itself is the beauty of the Red Sea life and corals, it was completely stunning and beautiful beyond belief. As a improvement point, I would only suggest to include more shade in the top deck, the sun is very hot in peak hours and there isn’t many shades in there, although you still have the lower deck to use at your own will. Another one would be to include the second diving point in the extra video, it was way more beautiful and also we were a lot less stressed the second time. Still I wouldn’t select any other agency or instructors.Written 27 September 2023

Me and my boyfriend went diving and snorkeling on 2 different days with the Crazy Dolphins team and it was wonderful.
The first trip included snorkeling in 2 different locations (for 20 minutes I think) lunch, drinks and then a 1h stop on the Paradise Island. The boat was very clean (cleaner than our hotel room), the staff was friendly and funny, always smiling and always making jokes. We made a new friend called Nemo that we hope to see again if we return next year. He was our English “guide” on the boat.
On the first snorkeling stop the mask and the breathing tube that they gave me were not good and I couldn’t see or breathe well underwater but our instructor gave me his equipment until we returned to the boat to change it and I really apreciated his politeness ( I can’t remember his name but he was a really funny guy, he didn’t know much English though😂). On the second snorkeling stop I think we actually swam more than 20 min and the instructor taught my boyfriend how to swim to the bottom as he does when he feeds the fish. We saw corals and fish that we only saw on Tv before. It was a breathtaking experience for us, considering we never took a trip like this before.
The second trip we took included diving 2 times, snorkeling (optional) and lunch and drinks. Our diving instructor was a very relaxed guy, I, personally was extremely scared that I will not be able to breathe and will eventually drown 😂 but he was very comforting and calm so in the end everything went great. On this trip we got some pictures and videos taken underwater with many colorful fish and corals, this was optional and we had to pay separately but it was worth it because now we get to have visible memories of this extraordinary experience for the rest of our lives. Special thanks to Nemo for them 🤙🏻
Also thanks to Emado, the really nice agent who recommended these trips to us.

We went on the 'Intro to diving' day trip a couple of days before Christmas and loved every minute of it. This was our first time in Egypt and considering most people we met on holiday were not from the UK (we are), we were made to feel very welcome with no language issues at all - the whole team spoke perfect English.
From the outset the communication was excellent and we were picked up from our hotel on time (7am), taken to the dive centre and then on to the boat with warm introductions to the Crazy Dolphin team along the way.
My wife and daughter (14 year old) had never dived before and were very nervous but the team put them at ease as much as they could before we got to the first dive site.
Throughout the day we all did 2 dives at 2 different locations and loved every second. The instructor (Ahmed) was excellent and put my daughter and wife at ease, coaching them and leading them to a safe and great first diving experience which saw them get to 5m and 7m respectively seeing a huge range of fish in the clear sea. The second dive allowed them to dive together with Ahmed and then I followed on with him getting to around 10m.
The boat was clean and tidy, the lunch was lovely and the day ran as planned. Although fairly costly, we have a great set of photos and videos from our trip which was copied to our phone before reaching the shore so no issues there either.
We did a load of research to select the right company and glad we chose Crazy Dolphin - we would highly recommend them and would definitely use them again in the future. If you are in the research stage - stop now and book!

If like us this is your first time diving then the Red Sea is probably the best place to go. Our instructor Sultan was incredibly patient and gave us the confidence we needed for our first open water dive. Sultan skillfully guided us through the water and took amazing photos and videos of us swimming with the fish. The marine life and coral beds are just amazing and something you should experience. The Crazy Dolphin team made our day a very enjoyable experience and we highly recommend it.

We went diving with crazy dolphin and were enjoying it very much. It was the first time diving for one of us and the instructor was very patient and supportive. Each beginner went in individually with the instructor, which made you feel very safe.
Further, they were great accommodating food allergies at the included lunch.
The red sea is a wonderful place for diving and we saw colourful fish and coral reefs. And the crew knew what to look for.
For the people just snorkeling, they had a guide making sure they saw the right places as well.

Every time I come to Hurghada, I have to come here.
This time I took a full diving coarse for beginners.
Now, thanks to Crazy Dolfen staff, I'm a PADI certified diver.
They even helped me through buying my personal diving equipment.
They didn't rush me at all. I took all the time I need to fully understand my equipment and fully able to perform all diving skills.
They taught me well and made me confident under water.
Now I'm truly enjoying my diving time.
Thanks so much Mr Hadi and Kaptin Hakim and all crazy dolfen staff.

The team are very friendly and willing to help in any way, Emado was very good at explaining the packages available and where the trip would take place.
We had 2 dives during the day, the 2 instructors, Hamdi and Soltan were very thorough in their instructions.
They then take the novice divers down 2 at a time so they are with you all the time for your safety. We were last of the group and were free to snorkel whilst we waited.
The first dive was brilliant, set next to a beautiful coral reef, we were instructed to not touch any coral of fish to protect the environment.
We had spotted some wild dolphins during the trip and having started our second dive they started to swim around us... It was spectacular! Definitely a bucket list moment ticked!
Afterwards we had a beautifully prepared lunch and then headed back to the hotel.
Where we were free to take part in a ride on a banana towed behind a speedboat as a fun way to end the trip.
A huge thank you to the team, and I would recommend them to anyone.

I would give the Center 5 stars for a truly wonderful diving experience and nice staff if it weren't for a combined trip with non-divers and too short diving for the price. Although very nice diving instructor who offered and took nice photos and videos underwater, the price was too steep and quality only non-HD for videos, and also 4:3 aspect ratio. I tried asking about the quality of the the footages before I agreed to pay and asked for HD and 16:9 aspect ratio (the world is using HD video quality for a while now), but the guy didn't understand a word of what I asked. Otherwise, it was great and I would do it again...

This was the best part of my stay in the horrible hotel. The crew of the diving center, Mr. Bond, the instructors on the boat and the diving center all together are super professional. Take sunscreen, take one bottle of water because you can fill it on the Radom star ship, and take your towel, the food is EXCELLENT, the equipment taken care of well, even the photos and videos they take for you are solid quality. Take your own go pro if you have one because the staff if more than helpful taking videos with your equipment. Sultan, the instructor, and the owner of the ship are great and friendly divers, experienced and calm, so even I, who have had a great fear, was able to make two 20 minute dives on the beautiful reef, get some really cool photos and videos, have a dance with my instructor to relax and understand the freedom of diving in the safest and most beautiful way.
Biggest recommendation to the beautiful people who saved my holiday in a terrible, terrible hotel, the Sunny Days El Palacio hotel, so my biggest recommendation is to get a room in another hotel and book diving with these guys.
Sadly, with all the extra charges from the hotel, we didn't have enough money to go once again, but next time in Egypt, I will definitely go with them to the Paradise island, diving in the red sea, have a great time and relaxed atmosphere, chill time and I honestly believe that these beautiful people of the sea respect life for what it really is - enjoying life and loving the sea and respecting its preservation.
Oh, yes, don't forget to tip the crew vastly, they deserve it most definitely :D
Biggest recommendation and I have to come back if for nothing else, than for spending a few days with the crew of Radom boat. Biggest best wishes from Croatia from Mia (like a hundred :)

Oh, yes, don't forget to tip the crew vastly, they deserve it most definitely :D
Biggest recommendation and I have to come back if for nothing else, than for spending a few days with the crew of Radom boat. Biggest best wishes from Croatia from Mia (like a hundred :)

From the bottom of my heart I want to thank Mr. Hady Zanoon and all the staff of Crazy Dolphin for most amazing experiences. I tried scuba diving with my husband for the first time and couldn't help falling in love with it. Despite from being completely unsporty I could enjoy every moment and opened for myself an amazing underwater world. The trips were very well organised and all the staff very professional.
I recommend Crazy Dolphin Aqua and Diving Center in Hurghada to beginners and advanced
divers as well. I have no doubt I will be back to do my certificate next year.
It's a pity though that I could not submit my original review written in the Ukrainian language.

hello, I wanted to book this experience for me and my boyfriend but I never dived before and I read that we need to check if an introduction dive will be necessary, will that be necessary for a beginner? How much will the introduction dive cost? How does this work? Is the introduction dive the same day?
I also wanted to ask how many meters down we will be diving. Thank you for your attention!

As long as everyone in the group still has sufficient air. Generally 30 to 40 mins.
