FFESSM Level 1 Diving Course in Bonifacio for Beginners

Bonifacio Plongée invites you to the southernmost part of Corsica for a FFESSM Level 1 training. Once you'll have completed this course, you will be allowed to dive up to 20 meters in France (since the FFESSM is a French certification), but also in many other countries. So get ready to first discover the Strait of Bonifacio, including the beautiful Lavezzi Islands, and to then choose your next underwater adventure!

Goal of the course
Once you'll have completed the course, you will receive the FFESSM Level 1 license and your level card. You can use these documents to prove that you have completed a Level 1 diving training, to dive with a guide or instructor to a depth of 20 metres and, why not, to move on to the next step: a Level 2 training.

Meeting & Preparation
The meeting point is at our base, at the port of Bonifacio. This is where you'll find our reception, and where we store all our equipment.
The course takes place over 3 half-days, including two afternoons and one morning. On the first day of your class, we meet at 1:00 p.m. Your instructor will explain the programme for the following days, hand out your learning material and give you the equipment for the first dive of the course.

Please note that your course may slightly vary from the standard schedule.
