The entire experience was wonderful. From the moment we stepped in the shop to the end, the staff was friendly, warm and helpful. Stavros was our main guide and he walked us through everything we needed to know, making sure throughout that we felt comfortable and confident at every point. Beyond the great staff, quality of the equipment, and ease of location, the water and experience of exploring the sea in a new way was incredible. I highly recommend this experience and look forward to visiting again in the future whether for another beginner dive course or to pursue certification.

Why scuba dive in a pool when you can do it in the sea?

This was the best experience I could have asked for, I’d have paid twice as much with how professional and thorough the staff was.

Highlight of my trip!!!

Tito_O, Jul 2023
This was hands down the highlight of our trip to Athens! My friends and I had an amazing time scuba diving. For 4 out of the 5 of us, it was the first time we ever tried scuba diving, definitely a challenge but the instructors were so patient with us, so friendly, so knowledgeable and very fun! They were very accommodating and went over and beyond with the service they provided. If I’m ever back in Athens I’ll do this again!!!

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Underwater adventure close to Athens

Marcus_H, Jul 2022
We had taken the bus and were greeted by Geo at the terminal. You could tell that Geo was very experienced and it was comforting to meet him. We recevied a thourough walk through of the gear and how to communicate underwater by Katerina after which we got ready to go dive. Me and my partner had dived before but my partner was still not comfortable with being underwater. Aspa and Katerina did a gret job making sure she was comfortable, safe and took it slow in a pace she felt safe with. We were able to see many creatures underwater such as sea urchins, fish and even a squid. I would reccommend this for anyone that is interested in scuba diving or just want an adventure for the day. Perfect for first time divers just as well for experienced certified divers.

The best diving center and instructor.

Extraordinário e inesquecível EXPERIENCIA de MERGULHO

Gloria_M, Mar 2023
Numa das conversas com o meu filho. Ele sugeriu que gostaria de "mergulhar" comigo. Fiz uma surpresa para ele, mas estava ansiosa e com muito receio por isso nao contei ele . Na minha cabeca eu poderia desistir a qualquer momento. No entanto o instrutor foi incrivel, profissional, assertivo, humilde, magnifico, proativo, sensacional, com a comunicacao clara e suscita. Estava quase a desistir porque li nos comentarios que era longe. Mas ainda bem que permiti a mim e o meu filho a desfrutar desta deslumbrante esperiencia. O instrutor foi buscar-nos na estacao, ofereceu-nos café, cha enquanto ele preparava os materiais apreciamos o jardim e a rede de descanso. O Geo tem uma habilidade admiravel de transmitir-nos a tranquilidade, para que possamos isufruir da experiencia. No fim da experiencia esbanjei um enorme sorriso e retorqui:"VAMOS MERGULHAR OUTRA VEZ?!"". Ele respondeu: "Claro, vamos". E assim nunca mais esqueceremos desta magnifica experiencia.

Response from Host, Mar 2023

I cannot describe how much I enjoy the smiles on the face of every diver I dive with. I am honored to be part of such a unique experience of yours with your son!!! Pura vida!
