Experience a complete and enjoyable Level 1 diving course aboard our catamaran. Each day begins at 8:30 a.m. from the Grande Anse pontoon, where you will board a zodiac for a short transfer to our anchored catamaran, welcomed with a hot cup of coffee. Our daily dives will take you to the best sites between Pointe Lézarde and Pointe Burgos or to Anse Dufour.
Over these two days (consecutive or not), you will complete your dives in preserved natural environments. After the morning dives, we will head to a second site such as the village of Anses d’Arlet or Anse Noire. Enjoy an afternoon aperitif and a delicious barbecue meal before having fun with our paddleboards on the water. Grab a mask and snorkel to swim with the turtles (please remember not to touch them).
On the first afternoon, we will cover the Level 1 theory with review sessions, ensuring you are well prepared for certification.
