About This Tour

This is an introductory scuba diving day from Side designed for people who have never dived before. After hotel pickup you transfer to the harbour, meet your certified instructor and receive a full safety briefing and equipment explanation on the boat.You make two guided dives, each lasting around 30 minutes. Depths stay within beginner limits (typically 5–12 metres) and the instructor stays with you the entire time. Between dives there is free swim time and lunch is served on board. The second dive may include the Side Underwater Museum, where statues and artifacts sit on the seabed.All professional equipment is provided and diving insurance is included. The group size is kept small (maximum 12–15 people) so you get personal attention. Non-divers can join for a lower price and stay on the boat.It suits complete beginners, families with children aged 8+, and anyone who wants a safe first taste of the Mediterranean underwater world without needing a certification. Bring a swimsuit, towel and sunscreen. Drinks and underwater photos are extra.

Local Tip

Most first-timers feel nervous on the boat and completely at ease once they are underwater with the instructor. The shallower first dive is designed exactly for that transition. Book earlier in the day if you prefer calmer sea conditions.
