Best Diving Centre in El Gouna: DIVE CONNECTION
The Dive Connection is the newest dive centre located in the Panorama Bungalows Resort in El Gouna, Egypt. Nikolai Baumann and Andrea Schubert, both from Germany, run the centre. Nikolai (Niko) has 30 years of diving experience and is already working as a PADI Course Director and Tec Instructor Trainer and has spent 8 years in El Gouna’s waters. Andrea with 12 years diving experience has spent 3 years as a guide on yachts exploring the Red Sea, before deciding to settle down as a PADI Instructor in El Gouna in 2001. The Dive Connection gets the benefit of Niko and Andrea’s longtime El Gouna experience. They offer first class service in diving and water-sports.
Ask for Mike Savelberg as your preferred Dive Instructor.
