She studied the Advanced course in August 2024. The training took place with Nadezhda, an excellent instructor, explained all the exercises in detail, worked out at sea. During the training , we saw manta rays , squid , and turtles . It's very beautiful. 😍After completing the course , I immersed myself for 3 days . The organization is excellent, a snow-white yacht, comfort 💯 Lunch is very tasty 🔥 Coffee , tea , fruit for free 🍮Guides are well guided in the red sea , different dive sites every day. In the early days, I was seasick, my nose was stuffy. Nadezhda is a sorceress, she put on her feet in a moment, there are always necessary medicines on the ship. I met the whole Dolphin team - great guys who love and know their business 🔥 See you soon and thank you for a wonderful vacation ♥️
Great center, great team! I was on New Year's holidays, took an Advanced course with Elena (a separate bow!). I went diving with all the instructors, all professionals in their field. Everything is great! The atmosphere is warm! I heartily recommend it!
The best Russian-speaking dive center in Sharma. We have been diving with the diving center team for many years. They are distinguished by professionalism, good knowledge of dive sites. Always a flexible approach. We have been friends with the owner of the center, Sergei, for many years.
I would like to express my deep gratitude to Dolphin Dive School in Sharm el Sheikh and our excellent instructor Elena Kotlyarova for an unforgettable learning experience. Taking the Open Water Dive course was an incredible adventure for me, full of impressions and new discoveries.
In four days, we made as many as 9 exciting dives, each of which was unique and made me fall in love with the underwater world even more. Elena is not only an experienced and professional instructor, but also an excellent mentor who managed to transfer to me all the necessary knowledge and skills for safe and confident diving.
Thanks to Elena's patient and individual approach, I was able to overcome my fears and doubts, and now I feel confident underwater. Each stage of the training was clearly planned and organized, which allowed me to concentrate on the learning process as much as possible and get the most out of each lesson.
I am immensely glad that I chose Dolphin dive school and recommend it to anyone who wants to immerse themselves in the fascinating world of underwater diving. Thank you for the unforgettable experience and professionalism!
Great diving center! We promptly answered all questions in detail in WhatsApp and offered to join the open water diver course the very next day! Transfer from the hotel to the minute! Many thanks to instructor Egor for his professional and sensitive approach to training! I definitely recommend it!
Great guys! I came with a referral, went with them to AOWD, made a nightrox. I went to Thistlegorm. There are a total of 20 dives with five different instructors. Own boat, home decor. After the first dive, soup, after the second - lunch, buffet. Tea-coffee-water is always available. The third dive is optional for a humane surcharge. Then relax on the upper deck. The crew of the boat is very friendly, always trying to help. Especially when you get out on the ladder in a bumpy way. The instructors are attentive and experienced. They know the local features very well - relief, currents, wildlife. All the dives are well planned. The pricing policy is pleasant. I will definitely come back to them.
I went diving with Dolphins in July 2023. I really liked it. Everything is professional, well organized.
The instructors are very professional and the atmosphere is friendly. Good equipment is available for rent.
Next time, only with you! Thanks guys!
A great team! This year we dived with them for the first time, only positive emotions remained!!! I confidently recommend friends now! A good boat, a variety of beautiful dive sites, a friendly team.
Great dive center! We have been traveling here as a club for many years. The boat is large, we choose sites according to our desire. DC always meets this halfway.
She studied from 12.01.23 to 15.01.23 at the Dolphin Recreation Center in Sharm El Sheikh. OWD course, instructor Kotlyarova Elena. I am very pleased with the process and the result. The theory is given in an accessible way, which is supported by good practice. Elena is a competent, experienced, caring instructor, she found an individual approach to my training, thanks to which I still successfully completed my studies, received a certificate, and the desire to engage in diving strengthened. Additionally, I would like to note that I am satisfied with the wetsuit (I was not cold) and the equipment. I wish health to Elena and all the DC employees, as well as prosperity to the school.
If your soul asks for romance and the sea, go straight to the Russian Dolphin Recreation Center in Charm. You will not find such a warm atmosphere anywhere else! You will be met by professionals- Veronika Kiselyova, Lena Kotlyarova, Denis Reshetov, Chico and Milad, taught and immersed -all at the highest level. I especially want to mention the work of instructor Lena Kotlyarov. She finds an approach to everyone, maybe a psychologist, a proctologist and the Queen of the Sea! Every dive with Lena will always be rich in Dolphins, turtles, stingrays and sharks. I can't stop wondering at her- is she feeding them something? Or is she just listening, with her experience? I dive with a Dolphin regularly, and believe me, they are not looking for good! Verified❤
Excellent diving center. The training is high-quality, they speak Russian, and the equipment is good. The price includes a transfer from the hotel to the dive center and back. I received a lot of positive emotions. I advise you!
I received OWD from Dolphins in September 2023. He studied with "aunt seal" Elena - the best diving teacher in the world! And what kind of plastic jiggles she has under water is a sight to behold! If possible, choose to dive with her - Elena is gorgeous! I recommend the company 👍
The only negative thing with Dolphins happened when I requested a refund of part of the money for canceling my one dive due to illness. There I communicated, as I understood it, with the head of the company, of course local. Well, the tightness of the locals is a separate conversation, he did not return the money he paid.
Very old equipment, the zippers of the suit on the arms and legs are broken, the Velcro of the back zipper does not work, which causes the collar to bend and rub the neck. The vests for the cylinder are not checked or washed (the flint of the cylinder attachment is oak from salt). The air supply valve is trapped in the vest.
Many thanks to the club, all the staff and Konstantin personally. Excellent dive management and human assistance in the personal difficulties of the stay.
Immerse yourself or study in Charm only with you.
She studied in early September 2022 under the PADI OWD (Open water diver) program, and was very satisfied.
A cool dive center, very friendly staff, easy and pleasant to communicate, everything was comfortable.
The instructor, Elena Kotlyarova, was remembered for her thorough approach, explained everything clearly and tried to make learning easy and interesting.
All the dives were great.
Before I arrived, I was a little afraid to dive, but under Elena's guidance, all the fear went away.
I will definitely return to Sharm and Dolphin for the sake of diving and getting Advanced OWD.
Thanks to the guys for the new underwater world.
A wonderful dive center! We studied at open water with the super-instructor Milad, and were very satisfied. Pleasant and comfortable atmosphere, high-quality training and equipment. I liked everything, words cannot describe it, wait for us on advance!)
Russian Russian diving club is in the advertisement, in fact, only the owner is Russian. We have arrived for primary education . we watched a training film, then picked up the equipment. The instructor is Arab, but he spoke Russian tolerably well. We were diving in sharkbay Bay. All the equipment was assembled, connected by themselves, there were no difficulties. I even found a faulty valve in my vest. The instructor started apologizing for something. I went to look for a replacement, but I didn't find anything. While I was looking, I fixed everything, the valve began to work properly. The first dive and working out of situations under water is impossible to convey . although the depth is small, it feels so bad to be left without air. Everyone coped, worked out the replacement of breathing tubes and the transfer of backup ones. He even praised it. Then there was a second dive. It's more interesting here. They plunged up to 10 m. He didn't go any further. Although I really wanted to. Time flew by unnoticed. We returned full of impressions. One of the most exciting events of the trip. I advise you not to waste time on all sorts of boat trips, but come right here.
It's a wonderful place. I had a coach Denis Reshetov, I took the Open Water Diver course (the course lasts 4 days, the group consisted of 3 people).
After 2 sessions in the group, it became clear that the participants had different levels.
As a result, Denis offered the remaining 2 days to work out individually with me, and separately with them, and this for the same money!! And the guys studied on other days.
Now about studying. The guys really teach, but without any bureaucracy. I really had to study with Denis. From morning to lunch, several dives, then in the theory class, and also in the evening in the room I studied a textbook and solved puzzles, instead of drinking tequila). So for those who plan to get a certificate at the settlement, this is clearly not here, you can't get a certificate for free here.
But it was worth it. The more effort, the more joyful the victory. At the last lesson, having confidently dived and completed all the exercises, you get unreal pleasure from confident dives and contemplation of the beauty of the red sea.
Thanks to the whole team, it was cool.
I didn 't like the team , the approach to diving , the organization of the recreation approach , I don 't recommend it .

A serious office, they are very strict about the rules. You can just dive for a swim, you can learn on PADI. Every time there is an instruction - the first time you are with them or the tenth, it does not matter. Russian-speaking instructors explain everything in detail and clearly. Their boat is a sight, snow-white- they treat it the same way as they do their work - when waves and splashes are constantly wiped off from salt with a cloth. Those who accompany their divers- have a very pleasant time- like on a yacht, you can swim with a mask- sometimes stops near the reefs.
Russian dive club, we have been diving with the guys for many years in a row, good organization, friendly and competent instructors, our own simple reef for training
Many, sincere thanks to the Dolphin school and separately to Elena Kotlyarova!
Such a sensitive, experienced and charismatic instructor made my training unforgettable!
Her jokes, stories, theoretical and practical examples, constant monitoring and the desire to teach how to do everything right cause only respect and delight!
In the water, Elena is like in a theater, guiding her students during the dive, like a conductor with an orchestra!
We worked out everything on the Open Water Diving course and it was not forgotten!
Thank you so much for the opportunity to dive with you!
Prosperity to the school and its staff!
I will recommend it to everyone and I will come more than once! 😍
Passed the OWD from 12.04 to 15.04.21
In mid-July 2021, he was trained and certified under the PADI OWD (open water diver) programs, then Advanced OWD and Nitrox.
Everything that is written in positive reviews is true). Excellent Russian-speaking dive center. He studied with Elena Kotlyarova, an excellent instructor who is very passionate about diving and, more importantly, teaching diving to other people. Elena really tried to teach, to make progress with the student. She told me a lot from personal experience, highlighted various points that he would not have guessed to ask right away. The training was a pleasure. Great atmosphere during all the exits, classes were held with a bang. No fuss or misunderstandings. Instructors and guides tried to do everything to make the dives as interesting and comfortable as possible.
The center and its guides/instructors have been working in sharma for a long time, they know the places perfectly well, they can tell you something about the city itself. Contact and sociable people - they themselves talk about some peculiarities of life in the city, diving. Therefore, you do not have to ask a hundred questions - everything somehow turns out by itself and unobtrusively.
In some reviews, someone wrote that they were not given a dive computer (for the duration of training). They gave it to me, but as I understand it, this is the personal property of the instructor, so it's better to clarify this point in advance.
In general, I am happy with everything - both the place from which I started diving training (charm), and the chosen dive center and, most importantly, meeting great people. To Elena Kotlyarova - a special and most important thank you!
Thank you so much for a great vacation, professional development and good diving! I really liked everything =) I was pleasantly surprised by the dive bot and the food on it. Much better than the competition. We had a lot of fun =) We provided a computer for AOWD training, and for free at that. So I don't know what suddenly wasn't given to anyone there =)
excellent dive center, very friendly team both in the office and on dives. special thanks to Lena Kotlyarova, with whom we studied at aowd - she became not only an instructor who taught various skills, but also a Mentor who instilled a love for the sea and everything that is there.
many thanks to the whole dive center, we will definitely come back again
Sometime in 2004-5, I did my first dives with this company. I trusted them and decided to dive with them. November 2021. Non-professionals are working there now! I do not advise diving with them. If anything happens, they don't even have any moral, much less financial responsibility for the service provided!
The equipment is old. Dragged divers into a storm - put them in danger! (Due to the strong wave, it was difficult to get on the yacht). Severe swinging, vomiting and vomiting. Although I have a strong vestibular and I prepare for driving, I do not drink or smoke. As a result, I hit the ladder hard when I was climbing! The money is paid, so dive or sit on the yacht in a bumpy boat!
There was no change for the diver from the hundred, they gave a ragged 50k or take it or dive again! God forbid diving with them!
The second Dive was dragged into some kind of garbage dump! Trash bottles, bags - a cool landscape for Charm! At the request to make a 50 percent discount on the second Dive on another day, so that the first one would be spoiled, they refused! A reasonable request, I understand all the costs, but no!
After diving with the Egyptians 2 times - the equipment is New, the attitude is excellent! They will ask you ten times whether you liked it or not? They took pictures on my camera for free! That is, there is something to compare it with! They don't charge extra money for equipment!
These have: only fins and bots for $ 10 ; compensator, cargo, balloon - $ 20; hydric - pay more! Lunch on the yacht - $7!!!!- separately! As a result, it becomes even more expensive than for Egyptian companies! But there is no responsibility and attitude towards customers! "I'm not me and the horse is not mine!"
As a result, the vacation was ruined and cost $ 150 instead of $ 80 from other companies.
A similar situation with the storm was in Thailand: a storm started coming out, but we still dived 2 times, although not in the best sites, as we stood in the shade. Despite this, the Dive Center has provided everyone with another free Dive at any time! No talking!
We studied on the recommendation, and flew to Sharm specifically for this purpose. The training took place in one go, theory and practice are the basis of Safety, which is told in a simple and understandable way at school! And the school also has a philosophy for teaching children, it comes from the founders to the instructors, for which a separate respect! We studied with our daughter for 12 years, we are happy, we will definitely come back and bring friends!!!

I've been diving with them for over 10 years. Everything is fine
I have been to Egypt 8 times , studied diving at other clubs. But when I found out the director and staff of the Dolphin diving center, I will tell you to join this club. The attitude is very good, the equipment is on the level, the instructors are of the highest class. You can upgrade your skills to the highest technical level .
An old and proven DC in naam. The instructors and guides are excellent, there are all kinds of equipment. Prices are like everyone else's, there is a cartel conspiracy all over the Charm. There is no permanent boat, because there is no constant flow of customers.
Dolphin Dive Center, this is our second home in Sharm el Sheikh. Veronica, Leleko, Jackson, Pashkov, Serega, Kostya, Lena and all that! We love you!
If you are a diver or want to learn, you are welcome here!
