With over 40 years of experience in the Red Sea, Colona Divers has a rich history of diving adventures, professional training, and a passion for exploring Egypt's underwater world.
Our journey began in 1992, when Norwegian diving pioneer Mr. Freddy Storheil established the first Colona Divers centre in Sharm El Sheikh. Freddy had been operating liveaboard diving trips in the Red Sea since 1977. The name Colona comes from his first liveaboard boat.
Following our success, we expanded to Hurghada in 1999, El Gouna in 2001, and Marsa Alam in 2010, bringing unforgettable diving experiences to more destinations along the Red Sea.
Over the years, we faced several challenges. Reduced flight arrivals led to the closure of our Sharm El Sheikh centre, while the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 significantly affected our operations, resulting in the closure of our Hurghada and Marsa Alam centres.
In 2022, we relocated our diving centre from El Gouna to Hurghada, where we continue welcoming divers today.
Since 2023, Colona Divers has also been a PADI Instructor Development Centre (IDC), helping train the next generation of professional diving instructors.
Join the Colona Divers family in Hurghada and experience an unforgettable underwater adventure!
