Amazing first time diving experience. The training before we got in the water was super explicit and we had such a good experience!! For sure will come back!

Borislava – Bulgaria

Unforgettable Scuba Diving Experience in Halkidiki I was initially very nervous about trying scuba diving for the first time, but this turned out to be the best choice for such an experience! The instructor was absolutely amazing – not only did he explain everything clearly for a beginner like me, but he also had the perfect approach for someone who was as anxious as I was. His calm and patient demeanor really put me at ease, and I felt safe and confident throughout the dive. Thanks to his guidance, what started as a fearful experience turned into an unforgettable adventure beneath the water. My boyfriend loved it too and is even considering coming back to do the full scuba diving course! If you're looking for a professional and reassuring introduction to scuba diving, I highly recommend this experience in Halkidiki.

Full description

During the 3-hour class, learn the basic rules about scuba equipment and practice essential diving skills in the shallows, before going on a unique, guided, and safe underwater adventure with your PADI instructor. Get the experience of personalized training as you dive in small groups of 3 students or fewer. Progress at your own pace while you meet new friends.

The dive site is selected for its ideal conditions for beginners and abundant sea life. The area is well known for its crystal clear water assuring excellent visibility, the absence of currents and of dangerous species and the easy access to a multitude of dive sites. See all the typical marine life in the Mediterranean sea: octopuses, sea anemones, starfishes, moray eels, sea slugs (nudibranchs), and a lot of fish varieties swimming around you.

The program is aimed at beginners, so no license or previous experience is needed. All diving equipment is provided. Participants must be at least 10 years old which makes it an experience suitable for the whole family. Furthermore, once you realize that you want to become PADI certified, you will have already done the first step.
