Is the scuba diving experience done individually or in a group?

Each participant enjoys their first scuba dive with their own state-certified instructor. If you book as a group, you will travel together on the same boat, but each diver will be accompanied individually by their instructor during the dive. This allows everyone to progress at their own pace in complete safety.

 

What if I need to cancel or change my booking?

Cancellations and booking changes are possible up to 24 hours before the activity in order to receive a refund or reschedule your experience for another date. Exceptions may be considered in the event of a last-minute cancellation, provided that valid supporting documentation is submitted.

Do I need previous scuba diving experience to join this first dive?

No. This first scuba diving experience is specially designed for beginners. No previous diving experience is required. Before entering the water, your instructor will explain how the activity works, go through the safety procedures and introduce you to the diving equipment. They will then stay with you throughout your entire underwater experience.

How long does the first scuba diving experience last?

The activity lasts 2 hours, including the welcome briefing, equipment fitting, the boat trip and your 20-minute underwater dive.

How deep will I dive?

The dive can reach a maximum depth of 6 metres, depending on how comfortable you feel in the water. Your instructor will adapt the depth to your confidence and ability, ensuring a safe and enjoyable first diving experience.

What marine life can I see during the dive?

Depending on the season and underwater visibility, you may see Mediterranean fish, octopuses, moray eels, starfish and many other marine species living around the famous Île d'Or.
