    Trial Scuba Diving for Beginners in Veštar Bay
    "This was our second dive. The previous one, which took place elsewhere, had been a bit too traumatic due to a lack of proper instructions. We decided to give it another try, and it went much better! The instructors were very clear in their explanations, and the training progressed gradually—just as it should. I’m very happy that after this positive experience, my partner is finally convinced to get a scuba diving license!"Paola+, August 13, 2025

Trial Scuba Diving in Krk

Axel
"I booked an introductory diving course online with Gueni, from land, with my partner's three kids (10, 11, and 14). The exciting, clear underwater world and the empathy of Katharina, Josef, and Gueni herself during the briefing and conduction were so great that all three kids absolutely wanted to participate in another introductory dive. The next step up was the double-dive introductory course from the boat! The one-hour boat ride there and back from the dive site, which was located on an uninhabited island, was quaint and wonderful for everyone. The encounters with the octopuses Bernhard and Henry, as well as many fish, sea cucumbers, and other creatures were a fantastic experience! Everyone was completely satisfied, and one of the three kids has already passed his Open Water Diving exams today."
