In a few words
A first dive is the best way to discover the underwater world for the first time. No experience is necessary: you just need to be comfortable in the water and in good health. Before the dive, your instructor will explain how the equipment works, the safety rules, and a few hand signals for underwater communication. You will then dive into the calm, turquoise waters of the lagoon, at a shallow depth, always guided by your instructor who will stay by your side from beginning to end. You will discover the unique sensation of breathing underwater, surrounded by coral and tropical fish. An unforgettable experience, accessible to everyone, and perhaps the beginning of a great passion!
Finally, remember to allow a minimum of 12 hours between your last dive and any potential flight.
