Sigala Diving School

Located in Eilat, Sigala Diving School offers a focused, boutique approach to diving in the Red Sea. The centre operates as an SSI training facility, prioritising a stress-free learning environment through small group sizes and a personalised pace.

Whether you are completing your first Scuba Diver certification or looking to advance through professional levels, the school emphasises correct technique and safety. The atmosphere is designed to feel more like a family setting than a high-volume commercial operation, making it a suitable choice for those who prefer a quieter, more attentive experience.

The team is composed of seven professional instructors, all of whom are trained within the school to maintain a consistent standard of instruction. The school is led by Sigala Shoham, an SSI Instructor Trainer, which ensures a high level of expertise across the training programmes.

Instruction is kept intimate, with a strict ratio of no more than four divers per guide. This allows for the individualised attention required for technical skill development or for students who may need more time to master buoyancy and navigation.

The centre is also highly experienced in adaptive diving. They offer specialised programmes for children, as well as tailored support for adolescents with diabetes and divers with ADHD, ensuring that specific needs are met with professional care and medical awareness.

The school offers a comprehensive range of SSI certifications. Beginners can start with the Scuba Diver or Open Water Diver courses, with options for both group settings and private instruction. For those looking to progress, the curriculum includes Advanced Open Water Diver, Deep Diver, Navigation, and Wreck specialties.

Professional training is also a core part of the school's offering, covering the path from Divemaster through to Assistant Instructor and Instructor levels. Specialized skills training is available for Perfect Buoyancy, Marine Ecology, and the use of dive scooters. The school also provides refresher dives for those returning to the water after a break.

The centre provides a full range of rental kit, including regulators, BCDs, and exposure suits. All equipment is kept to high standards, with a strict regime of washing and disinfecting after every use to ensure reliability and hygiene.

For those looking to extend their bottom time or manage nitrogen loading, Nitrox is available on-site. The facility is equipped to handle the needs of both recreational and advanced divers, providing a professional base for your sessions in Eilat.
