Ability to swim and feel relax under water

Min. Age: 10 years

First Session:

With the help of a flip chart, we will explain to you a certain amount of theory, supported by a short 8-question review, and we will make sure that you understand the important rules of diving. The lesson will be short and concise, designed to inform you but not to confuse.

Second Session:

After the theory and before the boat dive, you will practice in a shallow area of the sea, in near pool-like conditions. The dive will last about 40 minutes, depending on your comfort level. You will be surprised by how quickly you will relax!
