I chose to do the shore dive as I was a bit nervous as I only knew the basics of swimming. But my diving instructor Gaya was amazing. She explained everything clearly and was patient. She made sure I was at ease and did not rush at all. Would highly recommend her. I did see a sting ray, school of fish and a few colourful fish too. Definitely going to do it again hopefully not too far in the future”
