Why Dive-Urge? Why Dahab?
|
Here at Dive-Urge, we WANT you to get the best from your diving holiday, which is why we offer a unique service of bespoke diving with small numbers. Our Resort is an oasis of clam, green tranquility which we like you to consider as a home from home whilst you are here. |
So why Dahab? Dahab is very easy to get to, less than 5 hours flying time brings you into Sharm El Sheikh (Airport Ophira) which is only one hours drive away from Dahab. In a short time you are transported to another world of intense beauty and relaxation. |

Dive Urge is only 10 minutes walk (or slow amble) to the main bay of Dahab, with all its shops, bizars and beach side restaurants.
Dahab Bay is fun to visit and good for picking up presents for the folk you had to leave behind. It is bustling with life which makes it so great to return to the peace and quiet of Dive Urge afterwards.
The locals are friendly and often want to know where you are from and a chance to say hello. |
Here at Dive Urge we actually do care about the environment here, it is not just talk. We pick up rubbish on every single dive, not just on Earth Day, encouraging good practices. We advise all dive guests how to improve their buoyancy underwater, so they stay far from delicate corals whilst still enjoying the dive. |

All our children are aware of our stance on the environment and help to teach their peers. Nadia, our eldest daughter has now completed her PADI Open Water and so a new generation of divers is born! |
Dahab is unique in many ways. For hundreds of years it was a traditional Bedouin stopover during the hotter months in summer, to benefit from the cooler breeze, and to fish the rich waters. The Bedouins now live permanently in the Village of Assalah, where you can see the Bedouin way of life continuing, with children enjoying simple homemade toys and saying 'Hello' at any opportunity. Goats roam free here, as does the occasional Camel. |

Dive Urge offers a great place to stay if you are not into the whole package holiday deal. We offer you a unique holiday in an amazing place, where you can discover yourself and proper peace and quite. It suits all types young, old, families, couples and singles. We hope you come and experience what everyone is talking about. |
We are primarily a Dive Resort and we care very much about helping you to improve on your diving whilst you are here and get the very best from it without harming the environment.
You may be looking to do a PADI Discover Scuba to see of you like diving, or maybe enroll in your PADI Open Water Course or even improve your skills with PADI Advanced Course, PADI Specialties, PADI EFR (First Aid) or PADI Rescue. All of these courses are taught here with only the best PADI Instructors, using well maintained training equipment and facilities here at Dive-Urge.
Camel Safari Diving, where you ride your Camel to a remote part of the Marine National Park and enjoy two dives, a Bedouin cooked lunch, including freshly made before your eyes 'Bedouin Bread' and a whole day with your Camel!
We offer every guest a chance to experience the true beauty and peace of the mountains by spending an evening under the stars, having a meal cooked by a Bedouin, on a fire. Watching shooting stars and enjoying some true peace and quiet, a rarity in this life!!
It is safe to say that there is more to do here than you can fit into one or two weeks, but that is the beauty of Dahab, you never exhaust the possibilities and always leave with something different to do when you come back.
