This was an incredible experience from start to finish! As an absolute beginner, our instructor made everything feel easy and exciting. They were incredibly knowledgeable and had a great way of explaining things clearly and calmly. I felt reassured the whole time, which really helped me relax and enjoy the dive. One of the highlights was how unhurried the whole experience felt. We had plenty of time in the water, to get comfortable, ask questions, and really take in the surroundings. The instructor also shared fascinating insights about the local coastline and marine life, which made the tour even more meaningful. He was able to point out fish nurseries, schools of fish and all the different sea life. The instructor even took photos and videos from our dive and shared them with us. I definitely want to go back and would recommend this to anyone, especially first-timers looking for a safe and enriching introduction to scuba diving. The company has lots of offerings which to do.
