"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"

"My friend got anxious on our first dive and we couldn't go through with it. They let us come back another day at no extra charge, and took us down one by one instead of all at once so we'd each have a good experience. Really considerate. Highly recommend.
