We booked a beginner diving course and were more than satisfied. Our dive instructor John was super friendly and explained the equipment and procedure to us in detail before going into the water. We felt very safe and well looked after all the time. After the dive we received some super great photos. It was really great !!!

We dived at a hotspot where several dive centers dive. It has a small island with an underwater mountain the sea side then drops steeply. Amazing that there are still so many fish stocks in Greece. Since the crowd of tourists eat everything away.:-) Very nice area and a great experience. Especially the Divemaster is highly praised. Accurate and detailed instructions have rounded off the offer. Afterwards we are in the water without fear and with good guidance. Fanis has everything under control at all times and you feel safe. Highly recommended.
