Camel Dive Club & Hotel

I completed my SSI Open Water and nitrox certifications at Camel Dive Club in September 2026, and I can't recommend them highly enough — especially my instructor, Ali. I'm a flight instructor by profession, so I know what good instruction in a safety-critical activity looks like. Ali is exactly that. He let me perform every skill myself and corrected me afterward, rather than doing things for me — that's how real learning happens. He insisted on a full buddy check before every single dive, even when it was just the two of us, building the safety habits that matter for a lifetime of diving. His briefings were clear, his patience was endless, and by the end of four days I was diving with confidence I didn't expect to have this early. The facilities matched the instruction: a proper training pool that let me focus on technique before moving to the sea, well-maintained rental equipment, and a professional operation from front desk to boat. I did my theory online before arriving, and Camel had the materials assigned to me promptly after booking, which saved me a classroom day exactly as promised. If you're getting certified in Sharm el-Sheikh, come here — and ask for Ali.

Great day diving,1st class dive centre.100% recommended xx

Spotlessly clean hotel, great value for money. Don't expect a 5-star rating, but overall we were satisfied. I recommend it.

Our room was comfortable and well kept and the onsite dive shop was excellent. We booked a snorkeling trip through them and it was one of the best organized tours we did during our time in Egypt. What we will remember most though is how well we were treated when we both became very sick during our stay. We were unable to keep fluids down and I had a high fever. In the middle of the night the hotel arranged for a doctor to come and see us. He was wonderful. He was kind, calm, reassuring, and took the time to properly assess what was happening. We were both incredibly grateful to have someone like that looking after us. The hotel manager and staff were also very helpful afterward and personally assisted us with getting the additional medication we needed. You really learn a lot about a hotel when something goes wrong and the way the staff looked after us meant a great deal. We felt genuinely cared for with follow ups from both the doctor and hotel staff.

We had a great stay and time at the Camel Dive Club and Hotel. The hotel is perfect for divers! We loved that the meals were ready for us each morning too in their attached restaurant. The staff are all really friendly and helpful. The beds were comfortable and the AC was great! The pool is also so nice and right in the center of all the rooms. We especially love the Diving with the Club. The diving is great made even better by Camel’s divemasters too. Moustafa and Mohammed were our guides! It was nice staying at the club because the dive club dropped us off first back at the hotel. There were gear rinse stations too!

It's our second time at Camel Dive, and we'll be back again for sure. Everything is top-notch: the location, security, hotel, dive centre, instructors, food and drinks and the service is out of this world, including the guys at reception. The community feels like a family and we have met people we'll surely be in touch with for a long time. Thank you, Camel Dive!! Photo credit: Cinzia Osele

A very nice, clean, and quiet hotel. The staff are very helpful and kind. We loved their cats. The continental breakfast is delicious (the cheeses are a bit ordinary though; I think they could offer higher quality cheeses and a wider variety). You absolutely must try the ice cream at the ice cream parlor. It's in a very central location, Hard Rock Café is right behind it, and all the other restaurants, cafes, and shops are just a few steps away. The beach is 150 meters away. The sea is already magnificent. We will definitely come back for diving next time 👌 My only criticism is that they keep monkeys in cages at the beach club they have an agreement with. It's terrifying to have to see this sight in 2026....
