Kirstie wins Luxury Liveaboard Holiday!

Kirstie Hewes from Billericay was the ever-so-lucky winner of the Dive Sportif/Emperor Divers LIDS competition. Which means that Kirstie and a pal will be heading to the Red Sea this year to dive from Emperor's brand new luxury liveaboard - Emperor Elite!

Kirsty, who has just turned 33, was pretty chuffed when we told her...

"Wow, what a fanstastic surprise! Thank you very much. I've been diving since November 2001, having done my Open Water in St Lucia and my advanced in Grenada. I am club secretary for a dive club in Chelmsford, Essex (Adventures in Diving) and as the club is really active on the UK diving scene I am beginning to get used to the somewhat colder waters around the UK coast.
I've done four liveaboards to the Red Sea, one of which was with Emperor Divers. Next on the list is Rescue Diver which I am starting soon and then hopefully my Divemaster."

Congratulations from all at Dive Sportif and Emperor Divers, Kirstie!

Dive into the latest fashion - new Red Sea range

Emperor Divers, Hurghada, held a fashion show recently at the Hilton Resort to launch a new range of fashion, designed with the diver in mind.

The new Oceans design includes wetsuits, vests and an exclusive range of t-shirts which have never been seen before anywhere in the world! (Well, OK, one or two samples were to be seen at LIDS), but Hurghada had the first complete catwalk array!

The range includes the classic oceans range of t-shirts, ‘All We Do Is Dive’, 'Location' tees, and Marine Park range of tees. And there's more...5mm full wetsuits and shorties, hooded vests and headbands.

Currently available in a range of sizes only at Emperor Divers centres in the Red Sea. Simply this season's 'must-have'!

Hurghada gives Magawish a spring clean!

Emperor Divers’ Hurghada, along with HEPCA, PADI and Coca Cola Int, launched their environmental campaign in March to clean up the dive sites in the area...with pleasing results!

The campaign started with an underwater and beach clean up on Magawish Island. Emperor Divers gave all the guests on the boat a free third dive and a challenge to collect as much as possible!

"
And they did…empty plastic and glass bottles sweet wrappers and plastic tubing.

The event was followed by a party in Papas beach club where gifts and certificates were distributed to all the people who took part. A big thanks from Emperor Divers to everyone who helped improve the Red Sea environment.
