About the Activity

What to Expect

Join our PADI Scuba Diver course for beginners in Les Trois-Îlets, from the Anse à l'âne beach in Martinique! This course is designed for those looking to achieve their first PADI certificate and discover the joy of diving in the sea. You will learn the essentials of scuba diving, including how to use your gear and communicate underwater. The program includes a combination of theory lessons and practical sessions, featuring 3 sea dives with a maximum depth of 12 meters. These dives are guided by a state-certified instructor in a small group setting, ensuring personal attention and a stress-free learning environment.

The course begins with theory lessons to equip you with the basic knowledge of diving. You will then experience three different dives in the sea of the southwest coast of Martinique. Each dive offers a unique opportunity to explore the vibrant underwater world, where you can observe local exotic wildlife. The practical sessions take place in the open sea, providing you with real-life diving experience in a safe and controlled environment.

Your adventure will be supported by either a RIB boat or a rigid-hull boat, depending on the day, offering ample space and comfort. This course is ideal for beginners eager to dive into the wonders of the undersea world. With a maximum of four people per instructor, you will receive personalized guidance and have the chance to build confidence in your diving skills while enjoying the beauty of Martinique’s marine life.
