The boat slips away from Naama Bay at dawn and the Red Sea stretches flat and glassy, gulls circling the bow. On day one you run through briefings on deck, don a 3mm wetsuit, then slide into water the color of a cut gemstone; currents test your trim and wide coral gardens line the shallows like living architecture.

Hydrate between dives
Surface intervals in the sun and repeated dives increase dehydration risk—drink water and avoid alcohol beforehand.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Wear a long-sleeve rashguard and use mineral-based sunscreen to protect coral and reduce sun exposure.
Mask and low-volume snorkel
A well-fitting mask improves visibility for skills and conserves air during dives.
Fins (open-heel with boots)
Efficient fins reduce effort on drift segments and while practicing propulsion techniques.
3mm wetsuit or shorty
Thin thermal protection is comfortable year-round but helpful for early-morning or winter dives.
