I was on holiday with my girlfriend and we had the privilege of meeting Alina and Vladimir who gave us the most sensational diving experience! Vladimir was so calm and also very funny and made the experience so much more relaxing and we felt incredibly safe, Alina was so friendly and helpful, And of course not to mention Luna, Their baby daughter who was so cute and funny after our dive she made it so much more memorable, I would absolutely recommend Vladimir and Alina for only one who wants to try scuba diving in split ❤️

Dear Robert, Thank you for the beautifull words, we are so happy you enjoyed your day and dive! Sending hugs from all of us and wishing you fun days ahead!

An amazing experience!

Ben_W, Nov 2024

We had the best time ever, so glad we tried this. The hosts are some of the nicest people you would meet. This was our first time, so after the safety briefing and training, we spent our time diving to around 5 or 6 metres. However, we were amazed at how much we saw. The water and sea life is amazing - schools of fish, an octopus, corals, star fish and more. Lots of great pictures and memories.

What a great day!

Tour operators were warm and inviting, they made this day a truly memorable experience. I would highly recommend this trip.

Great first experience of Scuba Diving

Cdric_N, Jul 2024

Great first experience of Scuba Diving for my son and I thanks to Alina and Vlado ! Vlado taught us the basics before accompanying us on our first taste of scuba dive in a beautiful environment.

Great time, I booked it twice

Johnny_P, Sep 2023

I had such a great time, I booked a second dive. The dive takes place at the beach where there is a natural lagoon. You begin trying breathing underwater. And when you are comfortable, slowly descend to about 9 meters. Our instructor was very patient and made us feel safe. Lots of fish to see, hoops to swim through, a mini village, and a mountain bike ! Thank you team for a great introduction to diving. I have since done another dive in Portugal

It was my first time....

Ana_E, Aug 2022

I just went diving with...

Andrejs_K, Jul 2022

I just went diving with Svetlana and I had a blast! Svetlana is knowledgeable and super friendly. In the scuba diving world that is unheard of. I can recommend this dive center to anyone that wants to have a good time diving in and out of the water. Very good team. Thanks you Svetlana!

Nice

Martin_S, Jul 2022

A normal first dive experience. Halfgood visibility in the water, good guides that take the time that you need.

Great for beginners!

Joshua_P, Feb 2022

Our scuba adventure was very fun! We went in mid-February, the water was a little cold but not unbearable or even that uncomfortable. The wetsuits kept us warm enough. We didn’t see much wildlife, but just being down at the bottom of the sea was very fun. Our guide was informative, aware of us while in the water, and certainly helped us be safe.

Response from Host, May 2022

Dear Joshua, Thank you for the review! It was our pleasure to have you diving with us! Hope to see you again in the future and share more beautiful moments!

Trevligt och bra prova på dykning

sandra_h, Jun 2023

Jättebra instruktörer, trevliga och kunniga. Det är ett utmärkt prova på dyk. Hjälp med utrustning och tuber. Kan rekommendera att ta deras hjälp med transfer då det var lurigt att hitta och de dessutom hade mycket bättre pris. Tack för upplevelsen
