DIVING CENTER2021-08-05T08:35:44+00:00

Our Diving Centre guarantees the highest level of quality and professionalism and offers complete sets of rental equipment including BCD’s, regulators, masks, snorkels, fins, wetsuits, dive computers and weights/weight belts.

It can provide customised services and courses suitable for both adults and children (from 8 years), along with beginner and refresher courses, available from both PADI and SSI. Everything from Open Water Diver, Advanced and many Specialty Courses are available, including Enriched Air ‘Nitrox’.

‘Discover Scuba Diving’ or ‘Basic ‘Diver’ offers the opportunity to experience diving without the need for any license. These one day ‘experience dives’ are available for those that simply wish to try scuba diving without committing to a full Open Water Diver certification. Free Trials are also offered in our pool, providing  the opportunity to try out the equipment with the help of one of our instructors, allowing almost anyone to experience breathing underwater for the very first time, ideal if you’ve never tried scuba diving before!

We have almost exclusive access to approximately 30 beautiful dive sites (depending on the season) at an average distance of around 40 minutes by boat. Often with no other boats or divers on any of our dive sites, this offers our divers, amazing opportunities to experience our wonderful marine environment at its absolute best. Our dive team select the appropriate dive sites according to your diving level and experience, with specific sites used for training dives and the more advanced, deeper dive sites for the more experienced, advanced and expert divers. Our dive sites provide the opportunity for divers to see a wide range of marine life from the macro subjects like shrimps and nudibranch, to the larger species such as sharks and even manta rays in the appropriate seasons, while dolphins can regularly be seen while navigating to and from our dive sites.

FAQ

Any help? Discover much more information here!

I’m a certified diver. Do I need any diving insurance?2021-07-07T12:38:33+00:00

Yes, dedicated diving insurance is required. If you do not have your own dedicated diving insurance, we have short term options available from DAN on a 1 day, 7 day or 14 day basis, offered at the diving center.

My son is 8 years old. Can he try scuba diving?2021-07-07T12:38:55+00:00

Children can start diving at the age of 8 years old but this is limited to the pool or shallow ocean ‘confined’ depths. Our pool or even the lagoon are ideal for this. From the age of 10 years, they can get their scuba diving certification by taking the Junior Open Water diving program.

I’m a recently certified OWD and I don’t have my own equipment. Is it possible to rent scuba gear?2021-07-07T12:40:00+00:00

Absolutely! At the Diving Center, we have full sets of diving equipment available to hire, including BCD, regulator, wetsuit, mask, fins, snorkel, diving computer and weights & weight belts. Most BCD’s and wetsuits etc come in standard sizes only, so if you have a requirement for something specific, or wish to check if we have your size available, please let us know ahead of your trip to avoid any disappointment.

Do you organize shore dives as well?2021-07-07T13:01:19+00:00

The house reef is quite far from the beach so we only offer boat dives for this reason. In the lagoon, it is possible to for children between the ages of 8 & 10 to dive during their Bubblemaker course, due to the very shallow water.

Is a check dive compulsory?2021-07-07T13:01:50+00:00

The first dive is always a check dive. During this dive you may simply have to remove and replace your mask, recover your regulator and check the accuracy of your weights. It will take just a couple of minutes and then you can enjoy your dive.

It’s been a long time since I did my last dive. What do I have to do?2021-07-07T13:02:19+00:00

For people who have not dived for more than one year, a scuba review is mandatory. It usually consists of short a session of exercises in the pool or shallow/confined water, where you can go over the required basic skills before continuing for one dive in open water.

Do I require a “fit for diving” certificate from a doctor to dive or learn to dive with you?2021-09-06T09:42:43+00:00

Every diver is highly recommended to have a regular medical examination to ensure he/she is fit to dive. When you register to dive with us, one form you will be required to complete, and sign will be the RSTC medical self-declaration. If you can answer all questions with “NO”, have no other medical conditions and are under 65 years of age, then a “Fit To Dive” certificate from a doctor is NOT required. However, if you do happen to have to one or more “YES” answers, and/or are 65 years or older, then you would need to bring a “Fit To Dive” certificate from a doctor. If you are 75 years or older, our insurer applies special conditions; please contact us for more information before booking your vacation.

Is it necessary to pre book dives, diving packages or dive courses?2021-09-06T09:44:23+00:00

It is not necessary to book dives or dive packages unless you are part of a large group. Even once you arrive, you can simply dive and at the end of your stay you will be billed for the dive package that you have completed. Many courses need no pre booking – however, do please contact us anyway if diving is your priority, to check our schedule or if you are interested in doing a course, as some specialty courses do require pre-booking and all courses are always subject to instructor availability.

Do you provide nitrox for free?2021-09-06T09:45:05+00:00
Yes, we provide nitrox between 28% and 32% for no extra charge to all nitrox certified divers.
