Four people. This keeps the group small, intimate and most importantly safe.
-
We don’t boast a huge dive centre, and we’re proud of that. Doing things differently is exactly the point.
Through trusted partnerships with some of the best centres and providers on the island, we’re able to offer everything a large operation can, tanks, gas refills, boats, full equipment hire and even gear if you’re looking to buy. You get all the resources, without the conveyor belt feeling.
We focus on small, intimate groups and genuinely good diving. No being stuck in a group of 8 where you’re just another mask in the water. We tailor every experience to you, making sure you get proper attention, proper dives and the best time possible.
-
All of our pricing is fully transparent. The price you see is the price you pay.
Some centres advertise a low headline price, then add tax, surcharges or equipment rental when you arrive. It might look cheaper at first glance, but once everything is added on, it rarely is. We prefer to keep things clear from the start, no surprises at checkout.
We also only work with reputable training agencies, including SDI/TDI and BSAC, so you know your certification and training standards are recognised and respected.
-
Yes, we’re fully insured and legally covered to take you diving.
Alex completes an annual dive medical to ensure he’s fit to teach and guide, and we maintain up-to-date professional insurance with DAN for added protection and peace of mind. We’re fully registered, qualified and bring years of hands-on experience to every dive and course we run.
