What we will do
The appointment is at 14:30 in Porto Cesareo, in the province of Lecce. Here we will be welcomed by a PADI instructor who will introduce us to the world of scuba diving, giving us an unforgettable experience.
Before diving into the water, we will have an introductory lesson. We will be explained the basic rules to follow whendiving, the safety rules to follow, and how to use the equipment correctly. We will also learn some basic diving skills, such as how to put on and take off your mask underwater and how to share oxygen with another person.
After the theory lesson, we will walk to the dive site in thePorto Cesareo Marine Protected Area. After donning the diving equipment (included in the fee), we will dive in the sea for 30 minutes at a maximum depth of 8 metres.
During this time we will experience new emotions, feel light, and be free to explore a colourful underwater world, rich in plants and many species of fish.
Return to the diving centre is scheduled for 16:30/17:00. Here we will be given an end-of-experience certificate. The lesson will in fact be registered by PADI as the first dive valid for the actual Open Water Diver course.
The experience lasts a total of 2 hours.
Who it is aimed at
The activity is suitable for everyone over the age of 10.
No certification is required; the only requirements are to be able to swim and be in good health.
Other information
The activity takes place from May to mid-October, on Monday and Wednesday afternoons at 14:30, weather permitting.
The lesson is valid as the first dive for the actual Open Water Diver course.
It is strongly discouraged to dive 24 hours before an aeroplane flight, as, due to the lower atmospheric pressure on board the plane, nitrogen, which may have remained in the body, may form bubbles inside the tissues that can obstruct the flow of blood.
