Hurghada 8 Hours

The Salem Express is one of the Red Sea's best-known wrecks, and one of its most solemn. The passenger ferry sank in 1991 with great loss of life, and divers visit it today as much as a memorial as a dive site. We dive it quietly and respectfully, and ask our guests to do the same.The wreck lies near Safaga, south of Hurghada. We collect you from your hotel, drive you to Safaga port, and a boat takes you out to the site from there. Two dives in one day give you time to see the wreck properly, and your guide plans both dives around the conditions and your group.A wreck of this kind asks more of you than a reef dive, so the trip is open to divers with PADI Advanced Open Water, CMAS 2-Star or an equivalent certification. Good buoyancy matters here, so tell us the date of your last dive when you book. If it has been a while, our dive team can suggest an easier reef dive first.Full diving equipment, tank and weights are included, as are lunch, water, soft drinks and hot drinks on board. Nitrox and a dive computer are available for an extra fee, and our photographers can film the dives for an extra fee.Tell us your certification level when you book, and we confirm the pick-up time and details with you on WhatsApp before the trip.
