Programme - Meeting & Preparation: We meet at our dive centre at 09:15 am. This allows us to take care of all the pre-dive formalities and for you to be given a detailed pre-dive briefing. If you need to rent some equipment, you'll have enough time to try on your wetsuit etc. At 10:00 am, we get in our boat and head out to the first chosen dive site of the day. If you haven't had the opportunity to go scuba diving within the last year, we will ask you to take part in a quick 3h refresher course at our house reef, right in front of our dive centre. This will then allow you to join a boat diving excursion in the afternoon (departure time 01:00 pm). - Diving: Once in the water, you can explore the surroundings and enjoy the beauty of the underwater biosphere. All our excursions are accompanied by a certified Divemaster, who will guide you around the dive site and show you its most interesting features. - Return: At the end of the dive, we get back on the boat and head back to our dive centre on Agia Pelagia Beach. If you've booked a dive package with multiple dives, you can join the second dive of the day at 13:00.
