SCUBA SEEKERS
Conservation Initiatives
As divers we are lucky to be able to see first hand the wonders of the underwater world. Diving in Dahab means visiting one of the oldest and most diverse ecosystem on the planet: the coral reefs. Here at Scuba Seekers, we are passionate about our reefs and are committed to preserving our coral-rich backyard for future generations to enjoy.
Our mission is for our divers to swim away with a better understanding of the underwater world and what they, as individuals, can do to protect it. We believe the best way to achieve this is to provide eco-driven scuba diver training and to make meaningful marine conservation work accessible to divers of all experience levels.
GREEN FINS MEMBER
Green Fins is the only internationally recognized environmental standard for dive and snorkel operators, established through a partnership between UN Environment and The Reef-World Foundation.
Scuba Seekers is the first dive operator in Dahab to earn Green Fins membership and we have agreed to follow their Code of Conduct. In exchange, Green Fins help us to be up to date in sustainability and eco-driven practices, giving us annual assessment, training and feedback to help us to to reduce our environmental impact!
EDUCATION: REEF ECOLOGY PROGRAMS
At Scuba Seekers we have developed our own customized Conservation and Reef Ecology Programs. Through these specially-designed courses, certified divers can become personally involved in Red Sea conservation efforts and help us collect powerful data so we can provide effective solutions to the local threats facing Egypt’s coastal environment.
Interested in marine life? This program focuses on fish ID & partners with REEF to conduct official fish surveys & collect data for scientific research.
Enrich your dive experience and discover more about the fascinating marine inhabitants with our marine education dives.
DOCUMENTING AND MONITORING
We are seekers that seek to create a new and better relationship between diving and the underwater world. It is critical for us to explore, observe and document the underwater environment in order to protect it from threats and to conserve it for the future. Currently, Scuba Seekers is documenting and submitting data into the following data bases:
CLEANING OUR REEFS
Of all the threats that the ocean faces, the one that hits us the most as we see it on each and every dive, is marine debris. The oceans are filled with items that really do not belong there, from huge amounts of plastics, derelict fishing gear, cigarette buds, metals, rubber, paper, textiles and so much more.
Make your dives count by helping us clean up the trash that is already underwater.
