Full description
Come and experience your first scuba dive in one of the most fascinating places in Sardinia: the La Maddalena Archipelago National Park!
Amidst transparent waters, spectacular seabeds and protected marine fauna, you will discover what it means to breathe underwater and be enveloped by the magic of the sea. An instructor will accompany you step by step, from practice in shallow water to the dive site, which you will reach by dinghy.
A 2½-hour experience, all to be told. Are you with us?
What we will do
We will meet at the diving centre in La Maddalena (SS) at the time chosen during the booking process.
After the necessary paperwork, the staff will hand over thecomplete equipment and introduce you to the world of diving with a comprehensive briefing. In front of the diving centre, in a shallow stretch of water (2-3 metres), we will have a short practice session of about 10 minutes to familiarise ourselves with the equipment.
Once this first phase is over, we will board the dinghy that will take us to one of the selected spots in the archipelago. The choice of location will depend on wind conditions, but each location is unique and immersed in the pristine nature of the park. During the 10-15 minute drive we will be able to admire incredible views and, with a bit of luck, encounter herring gulls and other protected species.
Once on site, we will dive to a maximum depth of 10 metres, always accompanied by theinstructor. For about 40 minutes we will explore the seabed, populated by a rich marine fauna including groupers, damselfish , bream and starfish.
Back on board we will relax with iced tea, biscuits and some snacks on our way back to the diving centre. We will conclude the experience with a short debriefing and the handing out of a personalised certificate, a small memento of your first dive.
The activity lasts a total of about 2½ hours.
