What is What in Technical Diving in Sharm el Sheikh?
Technical diving is any type of diving that takes you beyond the recreational limits in any way and is not just about depth. In technical diving the aim is to achieve extra time at any depth you want! You will begin to utilise different types of diving rigs from twin tanks, for extra gas supply, or even closed circuit rebreathers to discover and utterly silent world with almost perfect buoyancy. The aim of technical diving courses is to make you self-sufficient to deal with any problems that may occur during any of your underwater experiences and it also gives you the knowledge in equipment and theory to be able to plan dives that go beyond the recreational no decompression limits in depth, time or even both.
The team are dedicated and solely focused on delivering all the courses and technical diving need with unparalleled safety, customer service and satisfaction.
EQUIPMENT
Tekguru has all new top of the range technical diving equipment. The philiosophy of Tekguru is that the equipment we dive every day has lasted us for many years and in many ways is the best equipment on the market so all students dive identical equipment to the instructors. This equipment includes:
All equipment is maintained by the technical instructors themselves and are always in top quality before being allowed in the water but there is also a fully stocked workshop just incase you have any problems with your own or any other equipment.
We provide 12L Aluminium Twinsets and either 12 or 10L aluminium stage tanks for open circuit and we stock a range of Rebreather and Bailout tanks.DIVE SITES
Sharm el Sheikh offers some of the best diving in the Red Sea and we have access to over thirty sites where we dive regularly.
The local spots - along the mainland coast - are all reachable within a maximum journey time of 70 minutes while the journey to the Straits of Tiran can take up to 2 hours.
A day spent there offers a huge choice of different spots for stunning drift dives and mooring dives. Ras Mohamed to the South is 1 ½ hours away and has some of the most famous dive sites in the Red Sea.
The world famous wreck of HMS Thistlegorm lies 4 hours to the south of Sharm el Sheikh and the wreck of the 19th century cargo ship, the Dunraven, lies just 2 ½ hours away. Regular trips are made to both of these wrecks.
Your Safety:
We take your safety very seriously. All our boats are fully stocked with first aid kits and oxygen and the recompression chamber - run by a multilingual doctor - is just a few kilometres away near the main harbour.
Diving Courses:
In addition to the daily technical diving available we also offer the whole range of technical diving courses from TDI, from user to instructor at every level.

Although in this course you can’t yet do decompression you can combine it with the TDI Decompression Procedures course which will then qualify you to 45m using decompression methods and gasses.
CCR mod :
This course is the first step into the silent world of rebreather diving. During this 6 Day course you will learn to use, clean, prepare and set up the rebreather unit of your choice. Minimum of Advanced Nitrox diver is needed to do this course but it can be combined with it if needed. Experience the silent world of no bubble and extended no decompression limilts for the first time and change your diving forever.
