Booked a try dive for my 2 children, 12 and 15 years old, both novices. From the outset the team at the dive center were brilliant at finding the right balance between professional and safe, and having fun. The kids got a thorough briefing before heading to the dive boat. We then went out to a sheltered cove for the try dive which was perfectly calm. Both kids were helped into their dive gear and checked over to make sure everything was comfortable and fitted correctly. They had an amazing time u see water for nearly 40 mins, saw lots of fish, cuttlefish, octopus, both very excited when they exited the sea. Couldn’t recommend these guys highly enough. They were brilliant, would definitely be coming back!
