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€ / dayScuba Diving - Guided Boat Dives to Islands close to RovinjDue to the ideal coastal location of Rovinj, there are numerous multifaceted islands close by, which, in addition to breathtaking vegetation and a great variety of species, also hide many underground channels and caves, where you can make one or two extraordinary sightings.
