Tech Training
Colona Divers have set its goal to crate safe, friendly and professional environment for tech training. We are not going shortcuts.
The Dive Center has all the needed equipment, gases supplies, boats & guides. There is a comfortable confined water area available (just 50m away from the beach) and the Hurghada area can offer dive sites of all ranges – tech dives from 30 to 130 meters - from beautiful deep reefs to great wrecks. Our experienced tech divers can suggest and guide you thru the wonders of deep Hurghada on your training dives.
Colona Divers is a DIR/GUE friendly dive center. Among our staff we have three GUE divers (from Fundamentals to Tech 2 level). So if you are looking for a good dive with people trained and following The Way - you have found the right spot.
We have been hosting GUE tech training before (GUE DIR Fundamentals & Tech classes) and we are planning to do it also in the future. Colona employs full time GUE Instructor that can make GUE DIR Fundamentals classes and on more advanced training we have been cooperating with one of the best-known Scandinavian GUE Instructors – Richard Lundgren. The tech dive guides are also GUE trained – T1 and T2.

Second goal is to prepare certified divers to take any GUE advanced training. It is designed for all divers willing to improve their skills, awareness and comfort and all those that plan to go beyond borders of recreational diving.
The first prerequisites are: being over 16 years of age, any full dive certification, non-smoker and fit (there are timed swim tests). There is also prerequisite concerning equipment – all students have to use with DIR set of equipment.
The course can be taken only in a team (minimum two) over a period of minimum 4 days.
