★★★★★Absolutely fantastic diving centre. I was nervous coming on my own, but the staff were friendly and helpful. Over five days of daily diving I visited a different dive site each day, and even got to try an underwater scooter — so much fun. Big shout-out to my guide Mohammad Ali; I felt completely safe. Great boat, great food.

★★★★★We had the best scuba experience with Aquarius. The team was so kind, especially our guide Sami! The two dive locations were beautiful with a wide array of fish, and lunch on the boat was delicious. Will definitely come again.

★★★★★The absolute best boat trip and diving experience in Sharm El Sheikh — a trip to Ras Mohammed and the White Island that was the highlight of our holiday. My son and I had never scuba dived before, but the instructors made us feel 100% safe, constantly pointing out marine life while my wife snorkelled above the stunning reefs. Beautiful boat, exceptional lunch, paradise scenery.
Angela Cox
★★★★★We had the best time on this private speedboat trip with snorkelling in the Red Sea — honestly perfect for our family. The price was great for a private boat, and the whole experience felt special from the moment we set off.

★★★★★Our three boys, aged 13 to 16, took the PADI Open Water course and we were delighted with the booking, the preparation and the actual delivery. The staff were very friendly and the equipment felt safe and well maintained, and the instructors were patient with the boys throughout. Everything ran smoothly from start to finish. I can only recommend this diving club.

★★★★★My husband and I earned our PADI Enriched Air (Nitrox) certificate with instructor Hussein, our 15th dive after Advanced Open Water. Hussein was so calm that everything came back quickly, and our second dive was even a gentle drift. Lovely dive spots full of fish — we saw tuna, manta, clownfish and moray. Great team, good food, unlimited drinks.
Ahmed Magdi
★★★★★Our trip to the Dolphin House and snorkeling with Aquarius Diving Club was truly amazing! From the very start the team made us feel welcome and comfortable. The whole crew was super kind and professional, especially Housen and Hisham.

★★★★★An amazing experience in Sharm El Sheikh — I completed around 20 dives and every one was well organised. Professional, friendly and safety-focused, with clean, well-maintained equipment. Special thanks to Ahmed, Ziad and Bilal; Ziad was an excellent instructor, calm and professional underwater. From the boat crew to the instructors, everyone was welcoming and clearly experienced. Highly recommended.
Sierra M
★★★★★Super dive centre — I got my diving licence here this year! A first-class diving instructor who speaks many languages, and my whole course was taught in German, which made everything easy to follow and relaxed. Greetings to Saddam! It's a very family-friendly team, patient and genuinely great fun to learn with. We'll definitely be back again.
Brian Spencer
★★★★★I went on a discovery diving trip for beginners and it was fantastic. The briefing before the dive was clear and reassuring, the equipment was in great condition, and the instructor stayed close to me the whole time.

★★★★★A welcoming, friendly experience. We went out on the Aquarius 9 — a lovely boat with an interior, a roof deck and its own equipment area. The dive site was superb; we saw octopus, tuna, pufferfish, clownfish and rays. Our guide was calm and knowledgeable, and every level was catered for, from very advanced divers to complete beginners. Highly recommended.
Marcus H
★★★★★Our third year in a row here — you simply feel well cared for. The house reef is still beautiful and nearby reefs are reached by Zodiac. All the guides do a super job; I did all my certifications with Yousef Mohamed, always relaxed and experienced. Mohamed Awad looks after our equipment, and the office makes any specific reef possible. It feels like family.
Stanislava Budzinakova
★★★★★Been here twice already and everyone was really nice and helpful! The guides know the reefs so well — they don't rush from one spot to another, but give you enough time to properly enjoy the house reef.
Arron S
★★★★★From pick-up to the end of the day the service was fantastic. Adam gave clear instructions throughout and made me feel completely comfortable and safe in the water. My eight-year-old son had the best time on his very first snorkelling trip. The food was lovely and the unlimited soft drinks a great bonus. Highly recommend booking this trip.
Marcos B
★★★★★Khalid took us by speed boat to the most amazing spot for our first dive ever — beautiful coral reef, schools of fish, and I even saw a group of squids! His clear tutorial beforehand put us completely at ease. We each dived for about 20–30 minutes, then stopped by Magawish island for a plate of fresh fruit. Highly recommend.
Ronald Ingen
★★★★★The place to be for the complete set of diving, from beginners to pros. We booked five days of diving from the boat — professional people all around you from start to end, and an excellent crew on board ready to help.
Dmytro T
★★★★★Our third time back at our favourite dive site in Makadi. Our favourite instructor, Youssef Mohamed, taught us the Advanced Diver course, always professional, and taught my youngest daughter the Open Water Diver course. The highlight was my nervous wife's first try dive — Youssef's genuine professionalism turned her fear into a happy, positive dive. Thank you for the wonderful, professional courses.

★★★★★The best boat trip we've been on in any country. The boat is spotless with amazing food and plenty of drinks, and they never overcrowd it — a small group with plenty of room for everyone. The crew truly made the day, especially Adam, who looked after our little girl. The places they take you are incredible. We'd do it again 100%.
Anna Gillott
★★★★★Great diving club on the beach of Coral Sea Sensatori — even better, they collect you from other hotels too, so we'll definitely be back! My husband and 11-year-old son made the most of a cloudy day here.
Jon
★★★★★Our family of four did the two-snorkel-site and Orange Island trip and it exceeded expectations. The boat was very nice and less crowded than we expected, with a hot lunch buffet included. The guides, especially Hussein, accommodated snorkellers of all levels and were brilliant with the kids. A well-organised day trip, and the reefs are simply magnificent. A solid, professional operator.
Andreas G
★★★★★The team is super nice and very experienced — Motaz in particular is very helpful and always fair. I've now completed my third diving course here and done a lot of dives with them, and each one has been a pleasure. We've been coming back since 2019 and can only recommend Aquarius Diving Club Makadi to anyone who wants to learn or improve.
Kiro
★★★★★My family and I went for a day trip on the Al Bourak boat. The staff were extremely friendly, accommodating and honestly down-to-earth lovely people. The snorkelling was super fun and we also took a trip to an island.

★★★★★Magnificent diving spots — we saw hundreds of fish and even a ray. Kind, competent staff, with an instructor accompanying each of us underwater, patient and attentive to our pace. As French speakers we were even given a translator, Cindy, who explained the safety briefings throughout the day. A big thank-you to everyone for a truly unforgettable experience!
Marsela P
★★★★★A fantastic experience with Aquarius, even without diving! I joined several of their excursions and was truly satisfied — kind, professional staff and impeccable, punctual organisation from the very start. The excursions were beautiful, with spectacular views and genuinely unforgettable moments, and you can feel the passion they put into their work. I absolutely recommend them for a well-organised experience.
Nina G
★★★★★The whole team does a great job. I did my diving certification here and was completely satisfied with every part of it. My instructor Motaz was superb — he taught me a lot, was endlessly patient, and explained everything clearly until it clicked. You can tell the whole team works with real passion. Thank you so much for the great experience!
Kathy Fusco
★★★★★We had a rocky start with high swells and were worried about the snorkeling — but rest assured, we saw dolphins at Dolphin House and had excellent conditions! Balila pointed out the wonderful route perfectly.
OMAR M
★★★★★The whole experience was fantastic, from the Orange Bay boat trip to the snorkelling over the reefs. The crew and staff were super nice and helpful all day, always making sure everyone was comfortable and having fun in the water. A great trip overall, well organised from start to finish, and we would happily go with them again.
Roland B
★★★★★A superb diving holiday at Aquarius. With 33 divers we had the Aquarius 9 to ourselves — a superb atmosphere, a top captain and crew, and professional, friendly guides. A special word for the cook who spoiled us with fruit and hot towels after every dive. We even got to ride an underwater scooter, an unforgettable experience. We'll be back.
Sarah W
★★★★★One of the best days of my holiday! I went diving and the instructors are very calm and reassuring if you find it exciting, explaining everything clearly before each dive so you always know what to expect. The crew on the boat were genuinely funny and made the whole day so much fun. I couldn't recommend them more highly.
Allen N
★★★★★Learning to dive here is great, and especially fun with a good instructor. Youssef, our instructor, was always helpful and experienced, and if one method didn't work — equalising pressure, for example — he calmly showed us other options until it clicked. The house reef is beautiful and you see many wonderful animals right there. Highly recommended for anyone starting out.
