Full description
Put on your tanks and snorkel and let yourself be enchanted by the depths of theIsland of Elba!
With this Discovery Scuba Diving experience, you will experience two dives in one day, both in the company of a PADI instructor who will guide you step by step.
When booking, you can even choose whether to start from the beach for a more gradual approach or to reach the local dive spots by boat for a bit more adventure. Either way, you will experience unique emotions!
What we will do
The appointment is 15 minutes before the indicated time at the meeting point in Capoliveri (LI).
APADI instructor will be waiting for us and will accompany us on this underwater experience. We will begin with a short theoretical lesson on land to introduce the safety rules and the use of theequipment we will be given.
After the briefing and dressing, we will enter the water for the first dive, of a maximum of 8 metres, during which we will do some exercises to familiarise ourselves with breathing and underwater movements. This phase has a didactic approach and will allow us to acclimatise gradually.
After a short interval on the surface, it will be time for the second dive, of a maximum of 12 metres and aimed at exploring the area's marine fauna, which we will be able to admire at our leisure as each dive will last between 30 and 45 minutes.
Depending on our preparedness and safety, when booking we will be able to select the"From the beach" option for a more gradual approach starting from land, or the"From the boat" option for a more adventurous experience, with boat trips to nearby dive sites.
