Right, so let me tell you about this diving intro trip with Funny Picnic. First off, if you’ve never dived before and feel a bit “uhh, is this for me?”—this is the one to try. You don’t need experience. You don’t need to stress. You just need to show up, let them kit you out, and enjoy the Red Sea like you’ve never seen it before.
The trip runs from 9 in the morning till 4 in the afternoon, which gives you a full day on the water without it feeling too long. They take you up north in Hurghada where the sea’s actually insane. Super clear. Loads of fish. Coral that looks fake because it’s too colourful to be real.
You get two stops to dive, about 15 minutes each, which is honestly perfect for beginners. You go underwater just long enough to feel the thrill without feeling like you’re filming a documentary. And the instructors? Absolute legends. Calm, reassuring, no barking instructions. Just chilled vibes and good energy the whole way.
There’s also lunch on the boat — and not some sad snack either — a proper cooked meal, plus soft drinks throughout the day. So it’s giving adventure and comfort.
They’ll pick you up from your hotel in Hurghada, that’s all included. If you’re in Sahl Hasheesh or Makadi it’s only 5 euros extra, and 10 from Safaga or El Gouna. Still a deal, honestly.
The best part? It’s just 25 euros now instead of 30. Twenty-five. For all that. Gear, transfers, food, everything. Kids under 5 go free, and from 5 to 10 it’s half price. So yeah, you could even bring the little ones if you want.
If you’ve been thinking about trying something new or just wanna see what all the diving hype is about — do it. It’s safe, fun, and you’ll come back with that “wow I actually did that” feeling. Go book it through Funny Picnic. They know how to do it right without making you feel like part of a tourist herd.
Trust me, this one’s a yes.
