“They did a good job giving us an over view of the basics for scuba diving, but the dive itself was a bit disappointing. I have scuba dived many locations and was excited for my boys to try it to see if they wanted to be certified. There was really nothing to see except people swimming above us. Our guide tried to be fun under the water by throwing bricks and such and showing us the remains of sea creature. We did see a few kinds of fish but that is it. I was really hoping for a little more for the money.”

Very clear instructions during briefing from Dimitri. Driven to the beach, tanks on & off we went. My 2 sons & I had never done this before so it was a brand new & amazing experience for all of us. I'd say the half hour was just about right, for a taster session. You don't need to be a good swimmer at all (which I'm not), just comfortable in water. Overall I'd strongly recommend this to…”
