    SSI Discover Scuba Diving in Massif de l'Esterel
    " I decided to go diving at the last moment before my trip back, as my vacation was ending. It was a spontaneous decision, and I am very happy that I joined Pascal's team. We received instructions and safety rules while we were on the boat heading to the diving point. Divers were paired in diving couples: a diver and a diving instructor. It felt reliable and safe. I was lucky to be paired with Pascal, who also has a sense of humor. We enjoyed fresh croissants with delicious tea (I regret not asking what kind of tea it was) after the dive, which was so nice as we shared our emotions and impressions. If I return to Fréjus on vacation, I will definitely take my diving lessons there!"Olena · July 2024

    PADI Open Water Diver Course in Sainte-Maxime for Beginners
    "I did my first dive in Croatia in July - instantly hooked, I was keen to get my PADI Open Water qualification as soon as possible and closer to home. Choosing H2O Sainte-Maxime, I wasn't sure what to expect but, honestly, this experience - the diving, the team and the environment - has perhaps left me with some of the happiest memories I've made in a long time! Though initially apprehensive, I grew to become a confident diver over numerous dives with the help of Nadine, who never failed to smile, laugh or even giggle underwater. The training and education imparted to me, both underwater and at the surface, was invaluable, and that it was delivered in such a fun, relaxed and calm environment - facilitated by Nadine, Arnaud and Laurent, has left me keen to progress to the next level. Many thanks to the team at H2O Sainte-Maxime - I hope to see you in late May to complete my PADI Advanced Open Water qualification. 😀"Theodore · October 2025
