Summary: It has been a one of a kind experience. Our first dive, and it was unforgettable. Under the sea there is a different world, and I felt that I was a guest in that world. The statues, the fishes, everything around you is an out-of-this-world experience. The instructors took really good care of us, was patient and paid attention to us. We dived one-on-one, each guest had an instructor with them, we felt safe.

Summary: My 11 year old grandson wanted to experience SCUBA diving. As I have enjoyed it myself for a number of years and have spoken about it. It can be a very dangerous sport for anyone. But especially if it's your first time. I was very pleased with the whole experience from start to finish. We had a 1 to 1 ratio of student to instructor. The instructions were professional and competent. My grandson felt secure and well looked after. We both enjoyed our experience. I would definitely recommend this Diving Centre.
