Description
If you have never dived, start here. An instructor explains the equipment and signals, you practise breathing and clearing your mask in shallow water and, once you feel comfortable, you go down to a maximum of 8 metres.
There is one instructor for every two people at most. You stay by their side and there is no rush: if you need more practice time, you get it.
It can be done from the beach, with easy access, or from the boat to see an area with more life.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to know how to swim?
Feeling comfortable in the water is enough. We do a simple test before starting.
What if I am afraid?
That is normal. We practise in shallow water and come up whenever you want. Nobody makes you go deeper.
Can I turn it into a course?
Yes. If you like it, the first day counts towards the Open Water course.
