Programme
We will meet at the booked time at the port of Sesimbra near the Sesimbra Yacht Club. There you will find our pink van, which you cannot miss. At the van, you will meet your diving instructor and get your equipment. They will give you a safety briefing and teach you hand signals to communicate underwater. Our instructors will also tell you more about your chosen dive site and the creatures that can be discovered there. Afterwards, you will take the boat to your diving spot. At the end, you will return to the starting point at the harbour.
