"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"

"Parking was difficult, which is why part of our group was late. That was no problem at all for the people at this dive school. They really took the time to explain everything thoroughly and then guided us very well. As beginners, we felt very safe under the guidance of these experienced instructors. It was an unforgettable experience. Beautiful: the rock walls, vegetation, and various fish species in large schools. Highly recommended!"
