Full description
But how inspiring is the name'sea baptism'?
This is exactly what we call the first scuba dive: in the company of a dedicated instructor, you will dive to a maximum depth of 6 metres to discover the marine world ofGiglio Island.
You will spend about 20-30 minutes underwater, which will mark the beginning of this new (and profound) passion of yours!
What we will do
The appointment is 10 minutes before 09:30 at the meeting point onGiglio Island (GR). We will be welcomed by thediving instructor who will guide us on this first dive!
Once we have gathered all the participants and provided all the useful information for the experience, we will board an inflatable boat that will take us to the best cove according to the conditions of the day. Meanwhile, a theoretical diving lesson will take place on board in preparation for the activity.
We will don ourequipment and enter the water: one at a time, we will dive in the company of the instructor to a maximum depth of 6 metres for about 20-30 minutes. The dive will take place in tandem with the instructor, so we won't have to worry about handling any equipment. We will be enchanted by the marine world around us, inhabited by damselfish, barracuda, octopus and other species characteristic of the area!
We will finally return to the meeting point, happy to have completed our sea baptism. The experience will last a total of 1 hour.
