Details
Diving has never been so close to your reach! With us, you can easily have your first diving experience in complete safety. An experienced and certified diving instructor will take care of you individually and teach you the basics of this sport. Besides, you can explore the exciting underwater world of the Atlantic during an open water dive around the Berlengas. We are looking forward to sharing our world with you!
Goal of the course
This basic course is about making your first diving experience. You will acquire both theoretical and practical skills and thus lay the foundation for becoming a certified diver. You can choose between two options: during the introductory dive in the pool, you can familiarize yourself with the diving equipment and learn the basics of diving in a short time and at a reasonable price. If you choose the option "dive from boat", we will go by boat to the Berlengas where you will have the opportunity of doing two dives at the sea supervised by an instructor. This option includes a light lunch.
Meeting & Preparation
We meet at the booked time at our diving centre in Peniche. There you will get your diving equipment from us. Your instructor will show you our dive centre and when everyone is ready we will start with the theoretical introduction before we go into the water. On your first dive, you will be cared for 1 on 1 by your instructor.
