About
Michael Wafaa is an experienced shark diver and shark conservation awareness instructor operating in the Red Sea, Egypt. He focuses on shark-focused guided dives, shark conservation education, and project-based dive experiences for divers seeking responsible encounters with sharks and other large pelagic species. His services emphasize safety, conservation awareness, and site-specific knowledge of Red Sea shark locations, and he organizes guided shark dives, photography-friendly encounters, and educational briefings that combine practical diving skills with marine conservation messaging. Michael presents himself as a professional solo operator and guide rather than a traditional multi-instructor dive center or liveaboard, offering personalized guiding, project coordination, and collaboration with other local dive providers for boat access and logistics. The site highlights his background, projects (including curated shark dive site information and conservation initiatives), and professional credentials relevant to diving instruction and shark awareness. This makes him a resource for divers seeking specialist shark-guiding and conservation-focused dive experiences in the Red Sea region.

If you ever dream to dive with sharks - Michael is most right person to do it in Egypt!
Michael Wafa is certainly the best instructor in the Red Sea and beyond. His special abilities such as the even greater knowledge of diving, as well as the incredible experience and handling of sharks is unbelievable!
Highly professional, 100% in everything he does. Humanly he is a great guy, honest and straightforward with humor.
If you want to dive safely with sharks, as well as learn and understand a lot! Then only with Michael.
I highly recommend diving with Michael as your guide. He's always incredibly attentive, shows you amazing spots, and can even teach you some great diving techniques if you'd like.
Michael is incredibly passionate about what he does and being able to see and dive with someone who really loves what he does is just something I can recommend to anyone!! Not any dive guide or instructor is the same and Michael definitely is one of my favorites I ever dived with. His briefings are super informative and on top of everything he really cares about the ocean and especially sharks as he has a research and identification project about them. I really hope to dive with Michael again someday :)
I had an exceptional experience diving in Egypt and that was thanks to my dive guide, Michael. His knowledge of the Red Sea was outstanding - not just the dive sites, but the marine life, currents, and conditions at each location. Every briefing was clear, thorough, and confidence-inspiring, which made each dive both safe and incredibly enjoyable.
Beyond technical skill, his calm demeanor and genuine passion for diving made the experience even better. He was patient, encouraging, and clearly cared about both diver safety and protecting the reef. His shark knowledge is next level and you can clearly see his passion for their conservation.
If you’re diving in Egypt, I can’t recommend Michael highly enough. He turned great dives into truly memorable ones.
