"A super friendly dive guide who gave me and my two boys (11 and 12) excellent instructions and, above all, exuded a great sense of security. Everything else was perfectly organized. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't quite what we had hoped for, but of course, the dive center can't be blamed for that! 😉 In any case, we're currently discussing whether we should book a second dive. We can wholeheartedly recommend Shark Diving Center. Thanks again for the fantastic experience, Jan-Eric"
