At Diving Center Saracen in Isola delle Femmine, you’ll learn basic equipment use, receive digital instructions, and enjoy a 30 to 40 minute sea session with an instructor.

“I’m an experienced diver but I wanted this experience for my 14 year old daughter, who was diving for the first time. Staff were very helpful & friendly towards us both & gave a crash course to my daughter who thoroughly enjoyed every moment. We had our dive in the sea, across the street from the dive shop & enjoyed every moment & felt safe, thanks to Besima, who was fantastic with children. A big thumbs up if you want to dive this experience, even for novices.”
