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, 2025From 75€ / daySSI Open Water Diver Course in Rovinj"I have booked a silver course which is the best option for a vacation.

"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."
