Our scuba diving school was created from scratch by a group of people who love to dive and help those who also have this “deep” passion. Our goal is to make diving accessible to everyone, with high quality services, irrespective as to whether we are providing education to young or old divers, and/or for already certified divers going on tours at home and abroad.
How do we achieve our goal?
It’s very simple, we put ourselves in the shoes (or fins) of the customers and we offer services that we would want if we were in their position. We offer knowledge, safety, courtesy, comfortable boats, quality equipment and the best facilities.
So if you’re wondering which diving center you should choose to explore the fascinating underwater world with, your best option would be us. If you’re wondering which diving center you should choose to begin or even continue your diving education, we promise that you will work alongside qualified instructors who truly love their job!
If you wish to become part of our dream and a dive professional, you will find friendly people from the first moment you enter the store that feel like valued colleagues who will stand beside you and help you become an excellent diving professional and many students thirsty for knowledge.
We dive a lot and have a great time doing so!
COURSES (no prior experience diving programs)
Our instructors will be by your side from your first breath underwater until you are a fully qualified diver and beyond.
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to breathe underwater?
By participating in the Discover Scuba Diving course you will be able to dive independently (with an experienced instructor) for the first time and discover the joy and beauty of the underwater world.
While not an actual scuba certification, during the Discover Scuba Diving course you will learn how to use scuba equipment in shallow water and experience a quick and easy introduction to underwater exploration.
The course lasts approximately 3 hours and you will spend at least 45 minutes underwater.
You must be at least 10 years old.
Your next step in discovering the underwater world is to enroll in the Open Water Diver Course.

Recreational scuba diving is the name given to the use underwater breathing apparatus (tank – BCD – breathing regulator) – in fact, “scuba” is an acronym for “self-contained underwater breathing apparatus”!
There are many international diving organisations, but the most well known and the one that trains the most divers is PADI.
If you wish to become a certified diver, but you don’t have a lot of spare time, then the PADI Scuba Diver course is your best option. This certification requires less time and covers a portion of the Open Water Diver course.
Prerequisites:
- You are in good general health.
However, it should be noted that anyone can dive regardless of their physical condition (within reason) because diving is more about hovering in the water than it is about swimming.
You will be asked to complete and sign a medical questionnaire and, if necessary, you will be asked to provide a medical certificate.
What the course entails:
- In the theoretical part of the course you will learn about diving equipment (suits, tanks, breathing regulators, etc.), the physical laws governing the sea, elementary medical issues, planning dives, etc.
- The practical part of the course covers a wide range of simple diving skills in which you will learn, for example, how we move and breathe underwater to how we remove water from our masks without having to head to the surface.
Course duration:
- The theory part takes about 4 hours and is completed in 2 days (the theory is conducted alongside the actual dives).
- The practical lessons consist of 5 dives (from an initial depth of 1.5 m/4 ft up to the maximum (for OPEN WATER) of 12 m/39 ft).
The dives take place over 3 days (2 dives a day) and usually require a weekend, but the program can be configured according to your needs…
With the PADI SCUBA DIVER course you can dive to 12 m/39 ft, but you must always be accompanied by a Divemaster or Instructor. In addition, you can always continue and complete the full Open Water Diver course later on.
