Professional Diving Center in El Gouna Egypt
Our dive center at the Movenpick Resort El Gouna puts you right on the waterfront of one of Egypt's most stylish resort towns. El Gouna's location, just 25 km north of Hurghada, offers quick access to some of the northern Red Sea's most pristine reefs—with far fewer divers than the busier Hurghada marinas.
Why Dive from El Gouna?
El Gouna is built around lagoons and channels, giving our dive boats protected, calm-water departures year-round. From our pier at the Movenpick, you're just 15-40 minutes by speedboat from the legendary dive sites of the Straits of Gubal: Shaab El Erg (famous for its resident dolphin pod), the wrecks of Abu Nuhas, and the vibrant walls of Fanadir. The protected marine environment here means healthier corals and more abundant marine life than many over-dived spots closer to Hurghada.
