PADI Diving Club Planet A — Local services in Al Hadaba

Few months ago I contacted Anna if I can take the dive master course with her at Hurghada Egypt. I had a special request since I live in the United States, I only have a limited time vacation (about 2 weeks) each time I visit Egypt and I can be in Hurghada on specific days. Anna was very accommodating to my requests but also made it clear to me that couple of weeks will not likely be enough to successfully complete the course. We both agreed that we can start the course in October. 2022 and possibly complete it sometimes in 2023 on my next visits to Egypt. I had to mention the above story because that is something I was so grateful for her that she was able to do it for me. Before I even arrived to Egypt, Anna asked me to read through the dive master manual and complete the reviews which we discussed online and once I made it to the dive center we went through them in even more details. I found that very helpful starting the course. Once I made it to the dive center in Hurghada, I was very impressed by her detailed plan and the amount of effort she put to make this course most beneficial and unique in every way. She went through what we need to do everyday and in great details all the skills I need to excel at so I can successfully complete the course. For this visit, I completed most of the dives I needed to do for the course and I feel I am in a completely different place now as a diver. I am looking forward for my next visit to learn more and complete the course. Anna is not only a great diver but a superb teacher. She can tailor a study plan for anyone based on their needs and skills. She is super smart, very patient and can explain the same topic in many several ways. Above all she is a great human being who loves nature and wants the best for our planet. I feel I was very lucky to have her as a director for this course and I strongly recommend her for any type of dive courses...

In short, the club and the instructors are top-level professionals who love what they do, care about their clients, and have a clear vision of which direction they want to move forward.

I have known Anna and Shelley for more than a decade since my parents and I came to Hurghada. Thanks to Anna, my mother calmed down underwater and discovered the joy of diving. Now, wherever I travel or dive, I compare all dive clubs to this one, and so far I haven't found one that ticks all the boxes, because you get a whole different quality of communication and diving here. Together with Anna and Shelley, you will not only experience spectacular dives and discover a unique underwater world, but it may also change the way you look at the world around you. Anna’s and Shelley's dedication has also helped two of my friends discover the joy of diving and finally, I'm not the only one talking about diving anymore. There are more of us now 😎.

After a considerable period of time has passed, I understood that getting to know Anna was one of the better events, because her sincerity, attentiveness, and demands on herself and those around her make diving and the underwater world safer both for us and for the underwater...

I had the great pleasure of completing my Open Water Diver course with Anna and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Not only is Anna exceptionally professional and knowledgeable, but she is also able to explain complex concepts in a clear and accessible manner.

From the very first theory session to the final underwater exercise, I always felt completely safe and well guided. Anna takes the time to explain each exercise with calm and precision, giving you the confidence to take on new challenges. She adapts seamlessly to all levels, whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced diver. Her patience and empathy create a learning environment where you can truly enjoy every step of the journey.

The practical sessions were not only educational but also superbly organised. It's clear that Anna has a natural talent for inspiring people to love diving. She doesn't just teach the technical skills, she shares her passion and respect for the underwater world.

Thank you Anna for an amazing experience. I wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone who wants to dive into the adventure of scuba diving with confidence. You're really in the best...
