This is a brief introductory course that teaches the basic dive theory, skills and the use of diving equipment. We start with the theoretic part, that lasts for about half an hour, about the basic of the scuba unit, how it works, how the diver use it ,physics of diving, equalization, underwater communication and describing the two skills that the diver will learn underwater( removing water from mask and the regulator) and then we do one shore dive, maximum depth 10 meters for about 40-45 minutes under water. You will have the opportunity to see a lot of micro life, sponges, corals, fishes and lot more.
With maximum 3 persons per leader we maximize the level of safety and pleasure to each diver.
In this program after the theoretical training that you will have in our dive center, you are going to do a very nice boat trip with two different stops. At the first stop you have the chance to get a unique diving experience in a cave, for about an hour and then we go in an open water area with full of marine life, sponges, corals, fishes, some turtles and lot more, where you are going to dive.
