Details
There is hardly anything more beautiful for a novice diver than calm and clear water, breathtaking underwater landscapes, and friendly, competent instructors – and you will find all of that when you join us in the beautiful town of Vrboska! So go on your first diving adventure and find out what it feels like to be able to breathe underwater!
Dive area
For the trial course, we'll either stay in the bay and dive directly in front of our base or take our boat to the beginner-friendly area at Zečevo Island. The island is surrounded by a shallow reef full of gorgonian corals, populated by many marine creatures: moray eels, colourful feather stars, anemones, squids, rainbow fish & co. await your visit!
Programme- Meeting & Preparation:
In order for us to be able to offer you a perfect diving experience, we ask especially our young divers to come visit us the day before the course. This is necessary because it allows us to determine if a child is able to dive or not (for example, a child may be too fragile/thin to carry the weight of the equipment). Once you know where we are and have met our friendly instructors, you'll be ready for your course! If you do not need our pick-up service, we'll meet at the agreed time at our base. There is free parking available. Here, you will get a briefing from your guide, who will show you a short video about the safety rules and basics of diving.
- Diving:
Your very first dive will either take place in the sea, in the area right in front of the base, or at Zečevo Island. The clear waters of the Adriatic Sea also offer fantastic views at both dive sites.
- Return:
Depending on which spot you have been diving at, you'll either walk or take the boat back to the base. If you've chosen the pick-up service, you will of course also be brought back to your hotel.
