Amazing experience, great value for money and knowledgable staff. Worth every penny - we ended up doing it twice - different days!

Excellent experience

Fantastic trip, I struggled with diving previously but today everything was explained simple and clear. Guide was fantastic. Really helped that we were able to snorkel 1st, which helped get use to the water and the depth. Once we started scuba diving, the guide was clear with all her instructions and we had enough time in the water to see and feed the fish. The fish are amazing up close. Overall a fantastic day. Well worth it and would highly recommend.

Excellent day learning to dive with a fantastic team! We enjoyed the occasion and also booked an open water PADI course and another diving experience!

Best Activity in Kos

Michael_R, Aug 2024
This is better than any city tour - experience the natural beauty of Greece. Not like some zoo, where animals are captive. This is a family run business. 100% safe at all times. Multiple instructors. Great for family bonding and memories. The 2nd dive is even more amazing. Take the trip - you won't regret it!!! - Mehali

Incredible lifetime experience

charlotte_s, Jul 2023
We booked the half day scuba diving experience. We had the most wonderful time, my youngest daughter and partner did not want to scuba so they had a lovely time snorkeling in the beautiful crystal clear water. They were watched over by the boat team. Myself and my 10 year old daughter went scuba diving twice, as complete novices we were excited but nervous. The team were incredible, couldn't do enough for us. We felt so safe and had an experience of a lifetime. The team take pictures and videos which are available to buy. Experiences like this open children's eyes to how wonderful our world is and we are so glad we did it. Thank you so much, we are now looking at starting our dive training.

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Thank you very much for diving with us.

The Dive itself was absolutely amazing and enjoyed every minute of it if I ever come back I would look it up again and do it again too.

Response from Host, May 2023

Thank you very much Martin and Lee. You are the best and hope to see you again. Best regards Athina

Einstieg in den Tauchsport

Dirk_F, Oct 2024
Dieser Schnupperkurs hat mich sehr überzeugt. Sobald ich wieder die Gelegenheit habe werde ich mich wieder zum Tauchen anmelden. Ich habe zu jeder Gelegenheit und in jeder Situation mich sicher und gut aufgehoben gefühlt. Besonders nach dem ersten Umgang mit dem Tauchgerät hat die „Verlängerung für 45,-€“ sehr viel Spaß gemacht und Sicherheit gegeben. Gerne wieder.
