Wadi Lahami
|
|
|
If you fancy taking a school group where they can really open their eyes to the wonders of the underwater world, as well
as being privy to dedicated eco-projects then Wadi Lahami is for you! This is the most southern dive venue that 321dive has,
extremely safe and most suitable for school groups.
A true diver's destination which is 400km south of Hurghada, the diving at Wadi Lahami is world class - and without the
crowds of other resorts too. Divers can now access sites that were previously live-aboard only in the deep south.

Access to the dive sites is made easier with the use of the RIBs only, going places where bigger hard boats
can't follow. Each RIB is able to carry 8-10 divers at a time and this ensures that no drop off becomes too crowded,
and where possible the school group is taken together in a convoy of these boats. Speedboats, convoys and diving
make good story content when back at school!
The accommodation is comfortably basic and the emphasis overall is on eco-tourism, but little perks still abound
(cake post dives are always most welcome). But it is all the stuff of legends.
The packages include all board, lodgings, diving and transfers - in fact everything you need apart from ice-cream money...

Standard board basis is All Inclusive/Full Board which includes three meals during your stay, including all soft drinks,
mineral water, tea and coffee. Incidental expenses, payable locally, tends to be ice cream, alcohol or tips (or the
extra dive destinations above).
Due to the nature of the location and diving no other board option is available.
Although this venue is seen as an exceptional and adventurous place to dive, beginners can be equally introduced to the sport.
Please note that some of the RIB dives may be demanding and so less suitable for those with back problems.
There may be no better place in the Red Sea to experience the real quality of diving and certainly it is an exciting venue if not only for its
most southern position in Egypt.
