And a high qualified instructors, thank you very much for the day"Joao, July 22, 2022From 199€ / day (5hrs)SSI Open Water Scuba Diving Course for Beginners"The diving course made our vacation an unforgettable experience! The whole team is super nice and looked after us wonderfully. The course was perfectly organized, both theory and practice were taught to us with the highest level of expertise and sympathy. The safety of everyone involved was always the top priority, we always had complete trust in the guides. They looked at the strengths and weaknesses of each individual in the course and addressed each one individually accordingly. They took away our fears and made us feel comfortable in the wonderful underwater world. Being able to do the diving course on vacation in our native language made it even easier for us to understand and implement the content without language barriers. The best diving spots were selected on a daily basis, the course time was optimally designed to accommodate all the content, not too long and not too short. We felt very well looked after and would make the decision to do our Open Water Diver at Octopus Garden again at any time. We can only recommend the diving center to everyone. You made a big dream come true for us - thank you again, dear ones!! We have had a little reminder of it under our skin ever since :)"Elena, October 7, 2024From 499€ / day (5hrs)

"Extremely kind and professional, we had a small problem, which wasn't their fault, and they immediately refunded us.
