I ask for advice from experienced and not very divers.
I am 43 years old. In Egypt I was engaged in snorkeling. And now I want to dive at least once with scuba gear. I swim mediocre, I have no physical training, I get tired quickly. Please advise if I can make my dream come true, and how dangerous it is. Thanks

Yes, you can make your dream come true. You will dive to 6-9m with an instructor who will hold your hand. The dive time will be 20-30 minutes. There is practically no danger for you.

There are centers even in your city where you can take a diving course in the pool first. You will be given much more attention than in Egypt for preparation.

I also think that it is worth taking a diving course in your city. Last year I went to a diving center and read contraindications for diving. It seems that they are recruiting astronauts. Up to the number of their own teeth (the minimum is stipulated))) I understand that they just want to protect themselves from unforeseen consequences, like - we let you know ... But you really need to evaluate your health for this sport.

It is better not to fool around in your homeland, but to explain to the instructor at the place where you will buy such an "excursion". In Dahab, both professionals and beginners will be licked from head to toe.

I also think that it is better to get a certificate in your city, but this is only if in the future you are going to continue diving and dive to a depth of 10-15-20-25-30-... m. you need to study in your homeland with feeling, sense, arrangement. To obtain a certificate that gives you the right to full-fledged diving, you need to complete a number of necessary tasks - blow water out of the mask, use the octopus correctly, etc. etc.
You can dive with an instructor once, dangers lie in wait at a shallow depth, but the instructor is nearby!

Many thanks to everyone who responded! Unfortunately, in the town where I live, there is neither a diving center nor even a swimming pool. Everyone learns to swim in the local sea. As soon as I decide on the time and place of rest, I will ask for your advice about a good instructor. Thanks again.

it is better to take the inside first, and then, according to your feelings and your well-being, think whether you need a certificate or not. There are many Russian divers in Egypt who will individually tell you everything, show you and teach you.

If you swim with a tube, then there should be no problems with scuba diving, the main thing is to learn how to blow through - to equalize the water pressure on your ears. It's not hard. My husband works as an instructor and every day helps 15-20 tourists to fulfill their dream. The first dive to 5-6 meters, the instructor holds your hand, does everything for you, you just have to breathe, blow through and look around. Many after the intro "sick" diving for a long time.

I do not know: what is "intra"? Is it a one time dive or something else? i.sharm. just visited your site. I was interested in excursions. There is a contact phone number.

--what is "intra---
Yes, this is a one-day dive, maybe two times.
It is for people who want to try to dive at least once.

"--what is "intra---

Let me elaborate a bit for those who don't know.
intro is a day trip on a yacht during which you can try your hand and scuba dive, once or twice. For those who are not sure, it is better to pay for one dive in advance, and if you like it, pay extra on the ship for the second dive.

I did my first scuba dive in Hurghada. There were only three Russian-speaking tourists and at first the briefing was carried out in English. the dangers of which I learned only on the Internet. As in all other areas, the Arabs are lazy, optional, inattentive, etc., etc.. Therefore, my advice is to take diving very seriously and not rely too much on the advice of an instructor!
