Choose the XL formula (20 min of diving), XXL (30 min) or Gold (45 min) for those who always want more and trust your diving-instructor to help you discover the underwater world of the Gulf of Ajaccio.
Dive area
The Gulf of Ajaccio has numerous dive sites, each more beautiful than the next. Depending on the weather and currents, your diving instructor will choose the most suitable place for a safe first dive. You may have the opportunity to dive in places with evocative names such as the Black Rock (le Roc Noir), the Sette Nave or the Three Brothers (Les Trois Frères). But don't worry: you will see wonders wherever you go!
Programme- Meeting & Preparation:
We will meet you directly at our office on the beach in Porticcio. There, we will ask you to complete a health questionnaire. Then, we will provide you with your equipment and you can change on site. After a quick briefing, we will head for the boat and the dive site.
- Diving:
Once you arrive on-site, it is time to explore the seabed of the Gulf of Ajaccio! You will dive alone with your instructor for a safe first dive. You will get the incomparable feeling of breathing underwater and have the opportunity to go up to 6 m if the conditions are right. While waiting for your turn and after your first dive, you will have the opportunity to relax on the boat or continue swimming in the Mediterranean Sea.

When the excursion is coming to its end and everyone is back on board, the boat will take you back to the base where you will be able to take a shower before picking up your belongings. But don't leave without getting your diploma!
