    Trial Scuba Diving in Krk
    "The three of us did the introductory scuba diving course, and I can only say: Absolutely recommended! I'd never been scuba diving before and was understandably nervous. But that feeling disappeared after just a few minutes. Katie and Basti did a fantastic job. They're both incredibly relaxed, always have a joke ready, and are very funny. Despite that, I never felt like they were taking anything lightly. Everything was explained clearly, and I felt safe and well taken care of the whole time. You can also immediately tell that the two of them get along really well. They tease each other, laugh, and joke around, which makes the whole atmosphere incredibly relaxed. It felt more like having a cool experience with friends than participating in some dry, theoretical course. The diving itself was simply amazing. At first, I had to concentrate quite a bit on the technique, but once you're down there and get used to it, it's an incredible feeling. Floating through the clear water, watching the fish, and experiencing the underwater world up close was truly something special. Time flew by far too quickly, and when we resurfaced, I immediately wanted to go back down. For me, this was definitely one of the highlights of my vacation, and it's even led me to seriously consider getting my scuba diving certification. Many thanks to the whole team, and especially to Katie and Basti, for this amazing experience!"Andreas · June 2026

"I would like to recommend this diving center for proffession. My instructor was very nice, gentle and proffetional. It was very nice to dive in this area. A lot of fun and exciting. If you ask about price it depends ... because in Spain you can dive for 50€, 60€ or 70€. Here there is 100 €. A little bit too much. But holistic is very good experience. Best regards."

"We had a brilliant day snorkelling. We took the boat to Plavnik Island. We had plenty of time and they gave us some great tips. The bay was peaceful and secluded. There were hardly any other tourists. Our group consisted of around 10–12 people. That made it extra special because it was such a small group. The staff were really friendly and helpful. They made sure we had a brilliant day. Great value for money, and the drinks on board were very reasonably priced too. Thank you, Gueni, Joseph and Youri, for the lovely day."
