Something like this

I don't believe it myself. But it sounds ominous.)

Now it is clear that we are talking about the fact that all the divers are certified. And the companies have been licensed for a long time.

There is information that Egypt will join the United Nations Green Fins program to protect coral reefs in the Red Sea.
Vacationers will be banned from feeding fish, throwing chemical and food residues into the sea, plastic products, garbage, and breaking corals. This is stated in a press release from The Reef-World Foundation.
Also, the country's authorities plan to introduce strict control over the activities of companies organizing diving tours. The decision was made in compliance with the rules of the UN program aimed at protecting coral reefs from the negative impact of diving and snorkeling.
South Sinai, which includes Sharm, will be the first region to introduce the relevant rules. By the spring of 2020, as part of the program, the norms will be adopted in other regions of Egypt.

these are all open secrets: in the dive business of Egypt there is serious competition (for customers), as part of this, large companies and those close to the authorities (military) are trying to ruin the small ones and remove them from the market. Therefore, for several years now there has been a permanent clamping and pressing of everyone and everything DC (except for their own and those who willingly bashish bashish to the authorities). All this is done under the aegis of compliance with some international standards / norms, etc. crap ... in fact, Egypt is a very corrupt country and for baksheesh they will gladly solve any issues for you - including they will issue permission for an introdive (diving, when you are without a certificate like a naughty cat by the scruff of the scruff of the instructor moka 5-10 meters for 10 -15 minutes ) . All this will affect tourists simply by increasing the price for a dive - it was $ 40-50 / will become $ 50-60-70 = such is the selyavi, mesdames et messieurs)
аватар Fancase
Perhaps so, but the fact is that, compared to the spring of 2019, excursions by local guides, including diving, have risen in price by 10-15%.
аватар Elenka08
Only firms with a license will be allowed. That is, simply Ahmed-Mohamed will not be able to organize a dive for you for $ 30, as before
аватар ser_____Witness77
ahmeds-muhameds have long been all with certificates of dive masters ... but you remained in the past soviet life with petty-bourgeois views ala baba klava said)
аватар Elenka08
ser_____Witness77, well, kagbeee Baba Klava and bourgeois views ... * find 10 differences *. ----According to official data, from 11/01/2019 a law is introduced that prohibits diving from ships to ALL uncertified divers. Including the owners of the DSD card, which allows you to dive to 12 m.
The innovation refers to the strengthening of the protection of reefs and will apply to the water area from the Ras Muhammad Reserve to Taba.
аватар ser_____Witness77
you said that "just ahmed-muhamed" someone there somewhere soaked into the water with a balloon? / WHERE and WHEN was it that Ahmeyd-Mukhameds mokal without certificates-licenses? what kind of grandmother on what bench did this rustle to you, spitting seeds)?
аватар Elenka08
soaked in water with a balloon *** I didn’t say that. If they were all licensed, there would be no such rustle. Well, in general, everything will be soon. Personally, I don't care, I don't dive
аватар Elenka08
everything will be clear*
аватар ser_____Witness77
yeah - something farted into the water to the smokers for laughter, now I'm not me and the hut is not mine (c))
аватар Elenka08

аватар ser_____Witness77
the source is more than surreal: Source: WWW.SHARMALSHEIKH.RU ))
and SHO such a DSD card was NOT explained to you there? I (as a diver) have NEVER heard of such a card)
аватар Vika284
There is such news not only on Russian-language sites
Egypt will be joining the United Nation’s environmental initiative, Green Fins, to protect the country’s coral reefs from the impact of diving and snorkeling has on marine life.
With 10 other countries implementing this initiative, Egypt became the first country in the region. Egypt plans on piloting the initiative in South Sinai Governorate before being adopted by all dive and snorkel operators across Egypt by March 2020.
The UN's initiative was founded is internationally coordinated by The Reef-World Foundation....Although the initiative is usually adopted by government body, Green Fins initiative collaborated with Chamber of Diving & Watersports (CDWS), an non-profit organization under Egyptian Tourist federation
аватар ser_____Witness77
the topic of the DSD card is not disclosed (c). What kind of fruit is this and what is it eaten with? ))
аватар nadin65
The Internet is full of information about the name and what is included in diving training cards.
Discover Scuba Dive (DSD) Program
This is a program during which you will be briefly told what scuba is and how to use it, then demonstrate the most necessary skills in the pool, after which you will dive on a coral reef paired with an instructor.
All together it takes about two to three hours from start to finish.
Since the DSD program is part of the Open Water Diver course, upon completion of the dive you will receive a document confirming that you have successfully completed 1/5 of the course, and you can continue your studies at any dive center, counting on a discount
On the Discover Scuba Diving Introductory Dive, you will dive with an experienced PADI Instructor in a pool (maximum depth 6 meters) or open water (maximum depth 12 meters)
аватар ser_____Witness77
well, this DSD card is a filkin's letter (s) = it's the same as being a little pregnant (s) - what's the point in it? It does not give the right to full-fledged diving, they probably give it out as colored beads sometime to the natives) ... do you need to pay any money for it? ... or for just an introdive they give everyone who is thirsty for useless trinkets)?
аватар ilyasan
Weird guys.
A lot of people work in Sharm.
This work is prestigious.
Where will this pile go? It is unlikely to sow and plow, rather it will start to buzz.
And where will the money of those who used to carry and give for diving fly away.
There is nothing more to pay for (I'm not talking about the buffet which is closer, in the same Turkey)
The plans were to fly to Sharm, now not.
".... goodbye?"
аватар HotLine
Sent letters from operators.
Please note that in connection with the decision of the Government of Southern Sinai, in order to protect coral reefs, from November 1, 2019, the organization of diving from all types of boats and ships is prohibited.
All sea trips of Coral Travel will be carried out without diving, with the organization of snorkeling (swimming with a mask). Maximum 3 stops during the trip.
For all tourists who want to take diving courses, Coral Travel together with partners organizes special programs from certified companies. The dive will take place with an instructor from the beaches of the hotels, the names of which we will receive in the next hour.
Follow the news!
аватар ser_____Witness77
well, yes ... without Coral Travel it is impossible to get a dive certificate))
аватар Slav_na
tell me, as a teapot that does not have any cards: if I used to dive and swim in the area of ​​u200bu200bthe plane, now I can’t?
аватар ser_____Witness77
there is no plane in Sharm (under water) ... then maybe you don’t remember where you dived)?
аватар ilyasan
As for caring for coarls, I heard a story about Cousteau. He stumbled upon a sunken ship in those parts (very valuable from the point of view of the Egyptian government) and somewhere in the same parts ran into reefs. To pull off the ship had to be torn with explosives. Naturally, this government of Egypt was very excited and he was forbidden to appear in those places.
-For that, you will never know where the ship is resting - said Cousteau and just now the correct bureaucrats canceled their decree.
Bike what to take from it.
But... there is a hint in every bike.
I think that all these squats are not accidental. It's not the corals that are to blame, but the money. Big money. It is she who moves the laws of permission and prohibition. The bureaucrats did not care about the corals and the charm itself (I saw what kind of ruins there were "unfinished" after the well-known events, and is there such love?
Most likely, someone in the government did not like the fact that they did not give him the whole baksheesh.
аватар Slav_na
ser_____Witness77, forgive me generously, perhaps I was mistaken. perhaps a ship sank there. something definitely sank there
and by the way, I didn’t write that I saw a plane under water, esicho ...
аватар Slav_na
repeat: tell me please, can a person, without having any "crusts", dive and swim with a professional, as before? Or will training with certification be mandatory now?
