What to expect

You'll spend time on land learning essential skills—breathing underwater, equalising, basic hand signals—before entering the water with your instructor. The actual dive takes place in shallow, sheltered areas where visibility is good and marine life abundant. Your guide stays with you throughout, demonstrating techniques and pointing out reef inhabitants. The whole experience runs one day, ending with your photos and video files ready to download.
