Scuba diving lesson for beginners in Crete with pick-up option



Discover the underwater world with the experts of Scuba Diving. This program is specifically designed for those who never dived before and know nothing about scuba diving.

You'll be taught the basics of scuba so that you'll have a real dive, always following the safety standards of Padi, the leading scuba diving organization in the world. Feel like diver, breathe and move freely underwater and listen to the sounds of silence, always accompanied and supervised by qualified PADI instructors.

You'll spend one hour in the diving center for basic information and introduction to scuba diving, and watch a 20 minutes informational video in your language. Your experienced instructors will guide you through the knowledge and the techniques of scuba diving and will be continuously with you during your whole activity. You'll spend one more hour in the sea where you'll be practicing the simple techniques you previously learned, while your instructors will guide you to the top experience of your life. You'll be breathing and moving freely and play underwater games while exploring the house reef and thousands of fish swim around you.

Your instructors will teach you how to be autonomous and enjoy the most not just hold you and pull you around.

During your first dive, you're allowed to reach the depth of six meters, but you'll be taken only where you feel comfortable and safe. When you're back at the diving center, you'll watch your HD videos that were captured during your activity.
