    Great first experience

    Kylene_J, Sep 2025
    Demitrus was knowledgeable and patient. The equipment was heavy but he helped you get it on and off with ease. This was our first time scuba diving. The under water views weren’t like I had thought but it was still a great experience.

    Thank you for your kind words! We're happy to hear you enjoyed your first scuba diving experience with us. Marine life can vary from day to day, but we're glad it was still a great adventure for you. Kind regards, Dimitri

    Wonderful Dive!

    Dmitry was excellent & a very professional guide. He explained all the steps for diving & using the equipment very thoroughly. We enjoyed the I o Ean & he pointed out the anemones, nudibranch, & sponges. We appreciated his patience & kindness. He gave us a ride to our bus stop afterwards. We would recommend this tour for beginner divers.

    Great experience for a first time diver

    Anders_A, Aug 2022
    I went to Nea Makri to try scuba diving for the first time. It wasn’t the easiest place to get to, but the hosts were very friendly and helpful. We went to one of the beaches, but had to go somewhere else, because of big waves in the sea. So time went by preparing for the activity, but when we arrived at the second spot, and went into the water, we started diving pretty fast. The guides had great knowledge and explained everything in great details, so the entire experience was a breeze. Unfortunately I only got one picture, but the entire experience was really good.

    Great experience

    It was a great experience for a family who have no idea about diving. Dimitris is a really nice and professional guide especially when you have a kids, you can trust him underwater, we touched on the meaning of safety and beautiful snorkeling, i'll give Dimitris telefoon number to all friends, and sure we will see him again. Thank you Dimitris and Maria

    SNP, Aug 2020
    If you are just starting off on scuba diving - this is the one to go for - you can trust Dimitris with your life and to provide you with the most memorable experience ever ! Maria and Dimitris were both so welcoming and made you feel at ease. The dive itself was great and we got to see little sea creatures, which was a bonus.
