Hello team Ocra diving Safaga,
We want to say many thanks for the great holiday, we spent with all of you during our stay in the first week of October 2007.
We arrived with a bunch of 30 persons of diving club aqua business centre Almere/Vinkenveen from Holland.
Your welcome was very cordial en professional.
Every day the bus was present on time near the hotel to take us to the diving boat.
Place to store and clean our equipment was plentifully available.
Hire equipment was also in a great range available. Having a nice drink also possible.
The boat dives were well organized and what a luxury spending our time on the sea on an accommodation only for our own use.
Between diving more than enough space for having a sunbath and\or taking a rest.
Finding the boat back, never a problem because of the name board on the back of the boat.
Each member of the crew on board was also professional and the service was excellent.
For the crew nothing was too much.
Every day the lunch was very tasteful
The night dive and the party after made our stay complete.
We can only say you are an example for all diving centres in safety in every aspect, organization, service and hospitality.
See you next year November

Best regards,
all of us of aqua bubblemakerclub Almere/Vinkenveen.

Just wanted to stop by and see if anyone remembered us there !!! We we're the 2 mad fools from England who did our Technical Diver and CCR MOD 1 a few months back and always seemed to be last on the boat !

We had a fantastic time in Safaga and will be back in 2008 to say hi to everyone again and maybe do our CCR MOD2 with Marc.

So - big hello to everyone at Orca Safaga - Marc, George, Volker, Fanny, Essam, Akram, Wolfgang, the boat and compressor guys always with a huge smile on their faces - and anyone else who remembers us!

You're a great bunch and we look forward to diving with you again in 2008

Love

Graham & Nic - England

I have send a lot of sms to him if he will send me an email so I have the right adress.
He is waiting for our photos which we have made 2 weeks ago.
Please will you send me the email adress or ask mr. Mohamet Salah (reception) if he will send me an email.
Thank you very much.
Greetings to family Salah from Holland.

Safaga Craic!

by Frank D'Easaille, April 2007

I have just returned from a holiday in Safaga, Red Sea coast of Egypt. I arrived with my non diving partner on Friday 13th of April and stayed at the Holiday Inn Safaga, and booked a 10 Dive package with Orca Divers, Safaga for 175 Euro.

The flight and Holiday Inn stay for a full week cost, including meals, (was ex Frankfurt all in for) 585 Euro. It was booked through a German Tour operator, The Drop Off Buro.de with whom I had booked a diving holiday in Dahab some three years previously.

Orca divers are an absolutely first class dive centre operation. As is now the practice Nitrox is standard and at no additional cost for all divers certified to use it, Air is available otherwise. The Inspiration and Evolution Rebreathers are available for qualified users and I dived the Inspiration with great pleasure!

The boat dives were always interesting and the dive sites well selected, the divemasters were of a high standard and the dive boat's crew were always professional in every respect, the lunch cost the equivalent of 2 Euro and was always good quality.the boat would leave around 8.30 Am and return around 17.00, plenty of space for non divers to sun bathe. A non diving partner came out on the boat for 9 Euro per day.

The Holiday Inn was five minutes walk away and the accommodation was excellent, the fact that we got an all inclusive deal meant we could eat and drink buffet style in the restaurants and bar. Service and staff were all very good.

Most of the clientele were German, the general atmosphere was very good and cordial. Hotel staff all appeared to be able to speak in several languages and nothing was ever a problem. The hotel had a small gym and I used it quite a bit.My other half also had a massage there and was well satisfied.

Weather was about 28 Degrees Celsius and sometimes windy but because it is a bay area there was always somewhere to go diving.

I highly recommend Orca Diving and the Holiday Inn as a holiday destination for the diver and non diver, incidentally my wife did a try dive with Orca and was very pleased with herself which quite honestly is a tribute to the easy professionalism of her Divemaster Mark.

On the Night Life question, the hotel is perfect for a couple seeking good food and a relaxing 'sun bed' by the swimming pool and beach which are so close together as to be indistinguishable. There are windsurfing opportunities and the sea is fine for swimming straight off the beach. there are also boat tours and a full day tour from the hotel to Luxor and the temples at Karnak, this is a full day trip, but Luxor is in fact only over three hours away.

The hotel provides a troupe of entertainers but there are no discos as such, there is a bar and plenty of drinking available for those that want it, but it would be like at home, very different from a resort area like Sharm El Sheik. I have to say as a diver that my days were full, divided between the boat dives and the gym in the evening and then a late night dinner.

Great facilities, very nice way to get into diving. Team, boatcrews and bungalows are top of the bill. Divesites are incredible, beautiful underwaterlife, both fish and corals. A good eye for safety and very skilled "guides"/ "instructors" certainly worth repeating again!!

In April 2006 we had with our diving group from SHAPE a great week in Safaga with diving center Orca.
