What people are saying about Arico

The diving lesson was all that I have ever dreamed of. The diving instructor was very kind and friendly, and had a big patience with both me and my 10 year old son. I would recommend for every new beginner (or rehearsed) diver.

Just great! Very nice leader, you are not in a large group. Because of this, you are closely cared for and not left alone. In the end you get very nice pictures :) highly recommended

It was really wonderful. We got a lot of great photos and great instructions as well as very interesting conversations. We can heartily recommend you.

excellent ! Snorkeling is stupid but with good equipment it is really better!

Very nice place and guides that even take the time to have lunch afterwards.
