Hands off this dive center!!!!

Dive center CRAZY WAVES :
Divemaster" acts unprofessionally, initiates emergency ascent (for no reason), then tries to blame a "novice diver" (certified OWD) even though he made NO mistake, "Divemaster" is actually during the dive WITHOUT COMPUTER unterwegs‼️

After research on the internet (PADI) it was found out that the ID number of the Divemaster is blocked since the end of 2022 ❌, he would not be allowed to accompany/lead dives nor hold diving courses. He still does both in August 2023.

Rental equipment of the diving center is more than "questionable": with my buddy, the regulator was exchanged 3 times within 3 days, because something always did not work, whether it was the finimeter or that uncontrolled air flowed out of the regulator.

My friend, who is certified CMAS*, should have done a "refresher course": 2 dives on the house reef for 100€. Pure rip-off and money-making!

At the settlement was tried to foist me a dive and to charge, which I had not made ????

There were some other "funny" incidents, which I do not want to mention here.
I am certified AOWD, have spent more than 60 weeks in hotels and liveaboards in Egypt in the last 20 years, I have been diving for 14 years and have done most of my more than 420 dives in the Red Sea, but fortunately I was spared such a "dive center" until now.

Once and never again!!!!

Stellungnahme von Daniela Taschwer
Hallo liebe Petra! Vielen Dank für diesen wertvollen Reisebericht. Du hast das Tauchen nicht bei uns gebucht; trotzdem werde ich die Tauchbasis kontaktieren & nachhaken, was ihnen denn eingefallen ist - Tauchguides ohne Lizenz etc. Wir haben mit Crazy Waves keinen Vertrag - aber die sollten trotzdem wissen, was los war & mich würde schon sehr interessieren, was deren Antwort ist. Es freut mich aber, dass ihr euren Urlaub trotz allem genießen konntet. Herzliche Grüße, Daniela
