Scuba Seekers

If you spent June diving in Dahab, you probably saw our trucks loaded with mesh bags heading from Lagoona every Saturday morning.

Across 4 weekends, 39 divers pulled up a range of underwater finds - from classic plastic bottles to heavy construction debris and abandoned fishing lines.

The hardest part? Not the diving, but sorting and weighing every single piece on the beach afterwards. However, logging that data is the only way to track where this trash comes from and fight for real changes in the bay.

We put together a full recap on the blog covering how the month went, what we actually pulled out, and why this data matters for Dahab.

There comes a point in technical diving when going deeper requires more than simply extending the same procedures.

Gas choice becomes part of the solution.

SSI Technical Extended Range Trimix is designed for experienced technical divers ready to progress to planned trimix dives to 60 meters.

Train in Dahab with Alfred Harvey.

Rec divers think the hardest part of tec is valve drills. Actual tec divers know it’s something else entirely...
We ran a poll among our community and tec team at Scuba Seekers. The result? 69% of divers and 7 out of 8 instructors agreed that the biggest challenge isn't complex hand maneuvers. It’s keeping your core, buoyancy, and trim rock-solid while your brain is completely overloaded.

Swipe through to see the breakdown.➡️➡️

Building that rock-solid foundation under task load is exactly what our tec team specializes in. Whether you're starting your tec part or pushing into Advanced Trimix, our instructors are here to turn that brain melt into total control underwater.

Big congrats to Ahmed Dessouki, Kat, and Sherif for officially surviving - and crushing - their TDI Trimix course! 🥳🤿

It takes serious dedication, a lot of gas planning, and a tolerance for helium-induced high voices to get to this level. You guys nailed it.

Massive credit to Instructor Zaki for keeping cool, pushing standards, and guiding the team through every deep drill and decompression run. Absolute top job! 🙌

To Ahmed, Kat, and Sherif: enjoy the new depths, keep the trim tight, and go burn that helium! 🎈🤿

Still thinking about your autumn dive plans?

This specific route is all about contrast. You start your week cruising through the sunlit, relaxed reefs of Safaga, spending quality time with resident dolphin pods. Then, the energy completely shifts as we head out into the open ocean.

Brothers and Daedalus are where things get wild. Deep drop-offs, serious currents, and proper pelagic action. We'll be scanning the blue for hammerheads, oceanic whitetips, and threshers.

The MV Marselia Star () is our base for the week, with the Scuba Seekers crew taking care of all the guiding, planning, and safety. You just show up, dive, and enjoy the ride.

If you’ve been on the fence, now is the time to lock it in. Spaces for this week are getting tight.

What’s one thing your instructor said that you still hear in your head underwater? 👂
Tell us in the comments. And tag them if they deserve the credit.

How many dives does it take to become a confident diver? 😀
Apparently, there's no magic number.

More than half of the divers who answered our poll needed over 30 dives to really feel confident underwater. And almost one in five said it took more than 100.

So if you've got your certification but still don't feel completely at home underwater, you're in very good company.

Confidence is built one dive at a time.
Make your next one with Scuba Seekers.

What helped your confidence most: more dives, more training, or one particularly good instructor?

What happens when a recreational diver and underwater photographer gets a closer look at the world of technical diving?

During several trips aboard Marselia Star Aline Hobi found herself surrounded by tec divers, CCRs, multiple tanks, and dive plans very different from her own.

Watching, asking questions and photographing it all from the outside gave her a new perspective on a side of diving she had never seriously considered before.

What surprised her most? And did it make her want to cross over to the tec side herself?
