Spring News 2008

And we don’t just mean the return of those brilliant hot, sunny and calm Red Sea days where the sea appears to reflect like a mirror. The temperature is warming up quickly and the number of sightings of mantas and different shark species increases by the day. One of our groups had a fantastic encounter with a Thresher at the back of Jackson reef in Tiran yesterday.
So lots of new things to run by you below - but our commitment to providing friendly professional services remains firmly at the heart of what we do.

• Three new awards to announce
• Also the all new “PURE Tek and Rebreather Adventures” diving operation
New Platinum Card offers for returning guests – much bigger savings than before
• The story of a new reef emerging from our Coral Restoration Project in Sharm
• VIP, our luxury liveaboard newly refurbished and ready for exciting safaris and wreck exploration trips
New and very popular Champagne Sailboat Cruises in Taba – pictured above
• A new centre at the stylish Ritz-Carlton in Sharm

And that’s not all:

We’ve got a couple of great offers for trips on VIP One.

And getting here from the UK just got a whole lot easier with both Easy jet and XL offering routes.

We reveal below the winners of our competitions at both the London International Dive Show and the Irish Dive Show - the prizes being luxury trips for 2 onboard VIP One.

• And lastly three interesting snippets that any diver should see including Caught Red Handed… a brief video exposing illegal fishing from the Ras Mohammed national park!

Keep watching this space as soon we’ll be announcing lots more exciting new projects.

Much bigger savings for returning guests
Platinum cards – keep them safe as you can get some great savings when you come back to Red Sea Diving College or any of our Red Sea Waterworld branches in Sharm or Taba.
red sea platinum cardps
All guests receive the card on booking in and we have totally revised our points system to make it much more generous than before every Euro you spend gets you the same amount of platinum points.

So for example now for only 350 points bring a friend and you can give them with a free Discover Red Sea mini-course or save them up and for 960 points you can surprise your best friend with a complimentary Open Water Course. Or if you want to use the points for yourself, 660 gets you a free diving trip to the world famous wreck of the SS Thistlegorm. So keep those cards safe.

See the full revised list here ...

Coral Restoration Project
We are all very proud to announce that Phase One of our Coral Restoration Project has been completed successfully. The project, carried out in partnership with our friends at the Ras Mohammed national park, began with a day of much action on the high seas – and ended happily with various species of coral re-grafted onto our artificial reef in front of the College.
