-Upon pick up we will take you straight to the dive site, Playa de Amadores *. If you come to our dive centre we will drive you to the dive site. Your instructor will introduce themselves and get you ready to start your Try Dive experience. -First your instructor will go through the paperwork with you and answer any questions you may have. - Whilst you are filling in the paperwork we will start to get your equipment ready for the try dive. - When everything is ready your instructor will give you a detailed briefing about what to expect in the water. You will put the equipment on and walk the short distance to the ocean. -Once in the water your instructor will slowly introduce you to breathing with the scuba equipment. When you feel ready you will start in shallow water by learning a few basic skills, after this you will go for a guided dive under the direct supervision of your instructor. *Please note if the weather conditions at Playa de Amadores are not suitable for diving we may take you to a different diving location further away.

Brutal experience. The instructor explains the instructions very well and helps and guides you during the dive. Highly recommended.

Top instructor, all well and patiently explained. After 45 minutes exploring the sea. Equipment was visibly used but impeccably maintained. Pick up incl also worked well and dive is limited by the amount of air the bottle. Was positively surprised and delighted again

This is my fifth time trying out scuba diving and felt most at ease with Mike than any of the other instructors. He was really understanding with those in the group who weren’t confident and explained everything clearly.

So glad we did this. The vibes were great, instructions were clear and the dive felt so safe which made it possible to really enjoy the underwater experience. Veronica deserves credit for all of the above. Thank you!
