Your Adventure: A Two-Step Journey
Our experience is designed to give you the ultimate adventure in complete safety and fun. Here’s how your day with us will unfold:
A Relaxed and Fun Start
You’ll meet your personal PADI Instructor who, with a short and simple briefing, will reveal the secrets of breathing underwater and show you the equipment. No complicated lessons, just the essential information to make you feel comfortable right away.
First Dive: Building Confidence
Your first dive will take place in calm, shallow water, directly from the shore. Here, with the constant support of your instructor, you’ll practice some basic skills, get comfortable with the gear, and experience the incredible sensation of moving freely underwater.
Second Dive: The Boat Adventure!
Now that you’re ready, it’s time for the main event! We’ll board one of our boats to reach one of the most spectacular spots in the Portofino Marine Protected Area. You’ll dive into a natural aquarium, guided by your instructor to a maximum depth of 12 meters (40 feet), floating among schools of fish and discovering the vibrant marine life of the Mediterranean.
What You’ll Really Learn
More than a lesson, this is an experience. By the end of the day, you will have learned to:
- Experience the unique thrill of breathing underwater in total comfort and safety.
