Good snorkelling experience overall !
The tour was good and our instructor nice. Did not see anything special in terms of marine life but there was quite a lot of fishes. The tour informed us two days before that we would make a 2 hours optional stop at Paradise beach, that costs an extra 10$ pp and was not planned in the booking. What was for us unfortunate for us is that we already had booked antoher tour to do exactly that the day before and could not cancel it anymore. It was a bit annoying as it is either you loose 2 hours of your time staying on the boat doing nothing next to dozens of other boats from other tours, or pay to go to the island. Luckily it was a bit less crowded than Orange bay (maybe because we were there rather late), the water was nice and clear but not outstanding. Food and soft drinks were sufficient.

Great experience!
Great experience!
Contact before the trip goes smoothly and you receive clear information. From Sahl Hasheesh, a decent taxi can be arranged there and back if desired.
The trip also includes a delicious lunch with meat, fish and salad options.
The staff is enthusiastic and skilled in their work, but also very pleasant to spend time with!! Adam divided the four introductory dives over two days among the beautiful coral, which was a particularly beautiful experience🐠🌸.
You feel safe and perfectly guided as an introductory dive. He also shows exactly where you need to look and is underwater.
Before diving, swam close to dolphins from the small boat. 🚤
If we come back here to complete my Pedi, I will definitely come back to the Crazy dolphin.

Amazing first dive!
We had an amazing first dive experience with the great team of Crazy Dolphin. Very knowledgeable divers. Even my wife who cant swim and was scared at the thought of diving had a blast. The boat was nice, clean and the food was also good. We did not get the chance to see dauphins, turtles or other large species. But as a first dive, even the colorful fish where amazing! Our dive master was Mahmoud Salah Mousa. He had a lot of patience, energy and playfulness which made our dives memorable! Thank you again!
The only negative I have is related to the other extra services as they are pretty overpriced. We had a photographer take our picture on the deck, and a different one in the water. At first we thought we will be offered a package with both set of pictures, but they were 2 separate entities/photographers. So obviously most people will only take the ones in the water, which made me feel sad for the other photographer who did a lot of work all day. I would have taken both, but the asking was 25 USD just for the dry pictures and another 25 USD per person for the underwater ones which adds up to 75 USD as a couple. Obviously you can negotiate as you always should in Egypt for everything :)

Excellent for anxious beginners and pros
My husband and I booked on to this trip - he had his open water qualification and I had never dived before. We both had an incredible experience despite being in different categories! As my husband hadn’t done a dive in several years he had to do a check dive but they gave him all the information needed to allow him to feel refreshed and confident.
I, on the other hand, entered the experience confidently and then had a panic attack in the water and found it incredibly frustrating and difficult to convince my head I wasn’t drowning! The huge benefit of Crazy Dolphin Diving School is that all beginners were taken into the water individually with an experienced instructor. This meant that I wasn’t kicked out a group when I failed to get my head under the water! I cannot experience my gratitude to my instructor Mohammed Ali who was unbelievably patient, caring and encouraging with me. He never pushed me and constantly reassured me. He made me feel safe and made jokes to lighten the mood when I was frustrated. I eventually got there on the first dive but it was getting back in the water for the second dive that I felt like I’d managed to get over the hurdle. Seeing wildlife up close - words cannot describe!
My one caveat is that there’s a photographer on the boat and in the sea and I got more flustered having to “pose” for photos on my first dive when I was still struggling to not drown…!
We did loads of research before booking and knew we were paying more to choose this one but I would say it was with every penny. I was so pleased to have felt safe and encouraged to succeed - it’s made me want to go back!!!
We spoke to other experienced divers on the boat who said Egypt was their favourite diving location and was best for seeing healthy wildlife.

Perfect! Absolutely recommended!
A wonderful experience! Top organization, very nice team! Adam is a super experienced diving instructor. I felt very safe underwater with him. The photographer took great photos. After two wonderful dives, we swam with dolphins. A unique experience. The food and the whole atmosphere on the boat were great. I can only recommend it.

UNFORGETTABLE.
After a four year break I would like to thank all the CRAZY DOLPHIN DIVECENTER members. It was another impressive experience and of course the care and entertainment. Thank you and we will be back.

I felt very safe during diving with hamdy and boudy. They were great instructors, were really patient and the diving spots that were picked were incredible. Thank you for the great experience

Amazing Dive
Diving with Crazy Dolphin is amazing. We haven't been diving for a long time so they would offer warmup check and then bring us into two deep dives. Our dive coach Abdalraman has sufficient diving skills and speaks fluent English which is perfect for us. The lunch is also delicious.
