What to expect
Enjoy our complimentary pick up service from your Athens hotel with our airconditioned mini van - a 30 minute drive to the dive sites.
As soon as we reach the dive site, your experienced instructor will make a short briefing on what to expect and the few simple skills you'll need to know to dive safely, such as mask clearing, how to equalize your ears to the water pressure, regulator usage, proper fin kicking and basic hand signals.
Your instructor will also provide all the basic scuba gear you’ll use which is very well maintained every year and small age.This includes a mask, fins, regulator, buoyancy control device, wet suit, dive gauges and a tank.
After the briefing, it is time for the thrill: In no more than 30 feet (10 m) deep in crystal clear warm waters , you will discover what it is like to breathe underwater for the first time! The marine life you will admire consists of eels, octopuses, sea basses, breams and schools of wide variety of Mediterranean fishes and lots of macro creatures.
All beginners will scuba dive in small groups of no more than six divers at a time, per Instructor, so that personalized attention is given to each one of you . Also, all divers are DAN insured.
Last but not least, our crew also holds an underwater camera and - if you wish - we will make sure that all your memories will be recorded and given to you at the end of the dive - free of charge!
