    We absolutely loved this experience. It was our first time scuba diving and we got to do much more than we were expecting. The instructors ( Manuel and Nora ) were excellent and make us feel safe and confident in the water.

    I really enjoyed this experience. The staff are friendly, organised, professional & patient. They explain things well and help if you need a bit of extra assistance. The water was a bit murky at the start, due to weather and the amount of people swimming that day. However it was clearer further out, we still saw loads of fish and one was my favourite so that’s was a bucket list item ticked off! I would recommend this to everyone, even if you are a bit nervous. You do need 10€ cash extra minimum

    Didn’t realise I had to pay an additional €10 per person on arrival and the transport used to get to and from out hotel by the company was unsafe as the back seat seatbelts did not work. Every thing else was amazing!

    Thought the whole experience was spot on from their part. The only issue I had was on Tui’s part. The pick up said outside the hotel, but on closer inspection and last monute I realised the hotel was a different one 300m away, which meant we were late for pick up. On the confirmation email from TUI … the time, location hotel and exact location needs to be bolder on it. The experience itself was first class. We have been before but I would say this is the number 1 attraction in Cyprus.
