Discover Scuba Diving in Cyprus-a very special experience
Are you fascinated by the underwater world? Ever wanted to know what it feels like to be weightless? Experience the feeling of breathing underwater? Or just swim with the fish? Then the PADI Discover Scuba Diving – trial dive with us in Ayia Napa / Protaras is the perfect excursion for you.
After a theoretical introduction and some paperwork, we go straight to the sea. We don’t bother you with a swim in a pool first, because the conditions at Green Bay allow us to take you directly into the sea and show you the underwater world immediately. In Cyprus, we are proud to have an underwater paradise which a lot to offer you, and if you are lucky enough you may catch a glimpse of one of our resident Turtles or Seahorses.
In addition, we can credit this dive directly to the training, should you decide to do your diving training (PADI Open Water Diving Course) with us straight away.
The ‘Discover Scuba Diving course is the perfect way for anyone to experience the thrill of scuba diving. It is generally the first step that most divers take and is all done in a relaxed and enjoyable environment and really is a great experience for all individuals who take part.
We offer pickup services in the region of Ayia Napa, Protaras, and Pernera. We collect you directly from the accommodation's reception and drive you to our dive center in Pernera. If your hotel is right next to our diving school, you can of course come to us on foot or by car.
On arrival at the diving school, you will meet your diving instructor who will ensure your comfort on our premises. You will then be required to fill out the obligatory paperwork. And of course, you also get something to drink from us (NO ALCOHOL).
Afterward, there will be time for your theory input with your diving instructor. Here among other things, you will learn,
... how pressure equalization works
... what equipment you need for diving
... how we move underwater
... how we protect the underwater world and why
Now it's all about finding the right equipment for you. We have a large selection of sizes on BCDs, wetsuits, fins, and masks. You will find a separate WC with enough space to change and as soon as we have everything together, we load the equipment onto our vehicle and drive to the dive site.
Upon arrival at the dive site, we help with your equipment. A secondary check is made to ensure that everything is in order and more importantly safe for the dive. Then it's straight into the sea! The point of entry into the dive site is calm and clear and only on standing depth. Here we will slowly get used to breathing underwater. We are happy to take a little more time here as it is very important to us that you feel comfortable and that all questions are answered.
As soon as you feel comfortable we ask you to give us the OK sign and then we slowly dive out of the bay. Here too, we do everything step by step. The bay drops gradually, which allows us to slowly dive deeper along the bottom. We don't need to reach a certain depth. Remember at all times, this is your dive and you may, of course, tell us to stop anytime if you don't feel comfortable descending or don't feel safe for whatever reason. There is a lot to discover even on a shallow dive. However, if you feel comfortable, we will dive to a maximum depth of 10 meters, where you will find an idyllic spot for the perfect photo opportunity. This area is filled with statues to admire and pose with. From this point on, we move slowly back around and begin the ascent back into the bay.
Back at the diving school, we will take a break of 5 minutes to have a drink and a snack and discuss your experience. We additionally offer photos and a video we took from your dive, to remember your experience with us. If you feel a bit peckish, you can visit our connected restaurant The Tipsy Turtle for a drink or a delicious meal.
By then we are confident you will be as fascinated by diving as we are. You have the option of obtaining the PADI Open Water Diver license, for which we will count your trial dive.
We will then be happy to drive you back to the hotel.
