We have great news!
Our dive centre has reopened in the iconic Red Sea dive
capital of Sharm El Sheikh.

Located directly in Naama Bay, we’re close to the jetty and ready to take you to dive incredible sites such as Tiran and Ras Mohamed.

“Sharm diving is at its absolute best for decades as dive sites have had a few years to recover from the crowds. Stunning hard and soft corals and amazing marine life encounters abound in some of the clearest waters the Red Sea has to offer,” says General Manager, Luke Atkinson. “The fish schooling event of Ras Mohamed in summer is truly world class and the chance to experience it with diver numbers similar to the 1990s should not be missed.”

As we are sharing with the Werner Lau/Sinai Divers centre in Helnan Marina Hotel, our guests will have access to a great house reef in Naama Bay and top class facilities as well as being close to a range of hotels for convenience. Divers’ favourite boats, Emperor Shorouk and Emperor Marcus, will be running regularly to the amazing local sites and, of course, to Ras Mohamed and Tiran. Our small instructor team will be headed up by the familiar face of Elise, an Emperor Sharm legend.

Direct flights to Sharm come from Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Switzerland and Austria with carriers such as TUIfly, FTI and Germania. Indirect flights via Istanbul with Pegasus and Turkish airlines are excellent for divers due to a generous baggage allowance, which is also the case with Egyptair via Cairo.

Make 2018 the year for you to come and dive in Sharm with Emperor; trust us, it will be the best decision you make!

It's our 25th Anniversary! Since 1992, Emperor Divers has welcomed divers and guests to our dive centres and liveaboards in the Red Sea and, more recently, the Maldives.

Read on to see how you can join the celebrations with free gifts from us.

Recognise any of the faces?

Driven by a ceaseless commitment to top-notch customer service and a deep understanding of what divers want, we have grown consistently since our early days based in Hurghada to offer the same service across its Red Sea and Maldives dive centres and liveaboards.

“The Red Sea has always been a popular choice with its richness of marine life and wrecks,” explains Luke Atkinson, General Manager. “Recently this has surpassed expectations with truly amazing marine life sightings – the best in over a decade.”

In 2014, we moved into the diving arena of the Maldives with three liveaboards giving guests a choice of diving adventure. In 2016, we expanded to become the biggest liveaboard fleet operator in the Maldives today.

With guests from all over the world choosing to dive with us, it’s no surprise the feedback is at 5-star level. “We don’t claim to be perfect,” explains Luke, “but we always do our utmost to provide the best diving experience we can. And that’s what sees guests return to us time and time again.”

The proof is in the pudding and guests from as far back as 1992 (yes those founding days) still choose us as their diving partner; no longer guests but very much friends of Emperor.

Liveaboard diving in the Red Sea continues to attract thousands of divers each year and the diving in Marsa Alam is always a star attraction; as much to do with the longevity of the team there as well as the chance to dive with dugong, dolphins and sharks. El Gouna remains a favourite with one of the main attractions being northern Hurghada sites, which divers have been enjoying since we first opened there.

New boats and routes in the Maldives keep us at the forefront, giving guests new ways to dive and enjoy the iconic sites. Special trips include free video and photography workshops with highly experienced dive guides.

A quarter of a century on, the Emperor team is looking forward to the next milestone and continuing to give guests the best experience whether it be in the Red Sea or the Maldives.

FREE gifts from us to you!

To celebrate, we're getting the party started to mark the 25th year of Emperor Divers, 1992 - 2017!

The first new 25 bookings we receive will enjoy vouchers and money off.

The first 24 will each receive a €25 voucher to spend on board an Emperor Liveaboard or an Emperor Red Sea resort.

The 25th booking will receive €250 against your next Red Sea or Maldives liveaboard.

We do hope you can join us. The team is ready to give you the latest on the Red Sea and the Maldives.

Alex Bryant, MD of Emperor Maldives, has over a decade's experience of diving here and will be sharing this with you at a Seminar on diving this iconic area from our BIG fleet of six liveaboards.

Entitled "#MustBeMaldives; six of the best" you'll just have to come along to discover the best of the best!

Catch him from 14.50 - 15.20 on both Saturday and Sunday in Ocean Theatre 1.

And our whole team of dive guides really are the best in the area. Ready yourself for an entertaining 30 minutes of photos, anecdotes and interesting information to inspire you! He's also happy to take any questions (well, related to diving in the Maldives, of course).

Luke Atkinson will be here too, and what tales he and Tracy have to tell of diving the Red Sea this year. It's been the best diving for a decade. Discover more first hand at the Show.

The Red Sea has always been convenient, close and with reliable clear, warm waters. It has also always had the capacity to surprise, with sightings big and small every year to delight divers. Right now though, it is on a hot streak and is delivering delights that we haven't had since the pioneer days of Red Sea diving.

Nature often has cycles but could there be another reason for such amazing diving right now? Is it due to the reduced number of, not just divers, but water users up and down the Red Sea coast since the decline in tourism due to the 2011 and 2013 uprisings? Certainly there are many fewer dive boats on each dive site compared to the peak years of the early 21st century but not only that, there are many fewer watercraft, not as many bathers, less construction on the coast, less sewage and less chemical runoff all as a consequence of lower numbers.

Plus, conservation organisations such as HEPCA have been subsidising fishermen to encourage them not to fish in breeding seasons.

Could it be that all these factors are starting to produce a positive effect on the marine environment in the Red Sea? Well, we've now had excellent diving for more than a year so we certainly think so.

This newsletter is going to showcase the phenomenal sightings we have had – and to really prove a point we will only include pictures and videos from this June and July!

September through to November usually presents the best diving year on year. Sea temperatures are an average of 28-30C while air temperatures cool a little from the hot summer. The big life loves these months, and we cannot wait to see what's in store under the waves. With good flight prices available now for those three months, come and get some of the action with a truly welcoming team of guides and crew.
