As of my last update in January 2022, the deepest scuba dive on record was achieved by Ahmed Gabr, an Egyptian scuba diver, in September 2014. Gabr descended to a depth of 332.35 meters (1,090 feet) in the Red Sea off the coast of Dahab, Egypt. This incredible feat took place over a period of 12 minutes, with Gabr spending around 15 hours on decompression stops during his ascent. Gabr’s dive set a new Guinness World Record for the deepest scuba dive, surpassing the previous record of 318.25 meters (1,044 feet) held by South African Nuno Gomes since 2005. It’s worth noting that such extreme depths are considered highly dangerous and require extensive training, experience, and specialized equipment.
