Home / About Us

At the end of the 1980ies, the small fishing village of Al Gardagha began its development to one of the largest tourism centres in the Red Sea. Today it is known as Hurghada. Scuba divers played an important part in the quick boom, as they were among the first to discover the advantages of the Red Sea. Volker Clausen was among those pioneers. In 1991 he opened the first ORCA Dive Club at Hor-Palace in the south of Hurghada.

Four years later, ORCA moved to Safaga. This move initiated a significant change. From then on, the company started to grow. Initially, additional diving centres were added along the Red Sea coast. ORCA was one of the first companies who developed diving in the deep south of Egypt with a diving centre in Hamata.
