JCS

James Curtis-Smith, otherwise known as JCS, started diving whilst backpacking in Egypt in the early 90's and has been involved in the industry in Egypt and the UK ever since.

As a PADI Course Director, TDI, ANDI and CCR instructor, JCS has extensive knowledge of the requirements of divers at all levels. He worked in the diving industry in the UK, firstly managing one of London's largest dive centres and then owning his own, before hanging up his retailing hat and returning to where the real action is, as a guide aboard liveaboard boats in the Red Sea.

Seeking fresh adventures JCS now heads up the diving team aboard Royal Emperor in Sudan. His wealth of knowledge as a guide and instructor entwined with his laid back Australian attitude ensures that the team aboard Royal Emperor can cater for your every need either through training or just diving.

He describes Sudan's rarely dived waters as "simply mind-blowing!". Why not join him for a week to find out why?
