Ahmed Rashid
Co-Founder & Course Director
Born and raised in Hurghada, Ahmed has been guiding divers on these reefs since 2013. He opened DiveRED (by Azure Diving Club) in 2024 with a small team he's worked with for years, and now runs the technical diving program alongside the day-to-day operation. When he's not teaching, he's almost certainly fixing a regulator.
