About Red Sea Scuba by Ocean Maps
Ocean Maps offers the world’s first interactive underwater sonar maps of dive-sites in 3D for scuba divers and snorkelers.
Discover over a hundred 3D dive sites in the Red Sea including world famous reefs and wrecks like Sinai’s Blue Hole, Kimon M, Hurghada’s Soma Garden, Thistlegorm and many more! Prepare for your underwater adventure by going for natural view based dive simulations based on exact geographical data.
▶ PREPARE FOR YOUR DIVE WITH 3D DIVE SIMULATION
Pre-discover dive sites in natural view to prepare for your diving adventures. Ocean Maps is helpful for both beginners and professionals to avoid common diving issues like disorientation. Hand-drawn maps are known to have low accuracy so our maps are based on high resolution sonar, video and satellite data to achieve the most accurate site visualization. Make use of the interactive first-person 3D dive mode to explore underwater worlds from yet on firm ground.

Read the provided briefing information and safety tips provided by regional partner dive instructors and by DAN, the largest global organization for diving safety.

First of all I must say this is the best diving related app I have seen and if I where based in the red sea it would definitely be value for money as briefings using this would be ace. Unfortunately I'm not based near the red sea so would only use this on holidays and to have a general play about on, I would love to unlock all the maps but can't justify spending the money. Well done on a excellent app and would advise anybody that guides on these reefs to invest..
