Welcome to Seagate Hurghada – Your Gateway to the Red Sea’s Underwater Wonders
Seagate Hurghada, a certified Dutch dive and snorkel center in the heart of Hurghada, Egypt, was founded by passionate divers Khaled Bijou and Marieke Schippers. Together, they combine years of experience, deep love for the ocean, and enthusiasm to offer you an unforgettable snorkeling experience. At Seagate, we want you to feel the joy, wonder, and beauty of the Red Sea’s thriving underwater world, whether you’re an experienced snorkeler or stepping into the water for the first time.
Khaled Bijou
Growing up in his father’s dive center, Khaled was introduced to the beauty of the Red Sea at a young age. By the age of 10, he spent more time underwater than above! Khaled’s passion shines through in his approach to sharing the wonders of the sea with every guest, ensuring you feel confident, safe, and excited as you explore the reefs and marine life of Hurghada.
