Under water we again recapitulated the teory and because we have many beginers in the group the instructor try to explain them how to don't panic or how to stay right under the water, which as I can say was really profesional.
In the end I just to say, that we (me and dad) really enjoyed this diving and we're looking forward to try it again next time.

  We were in Kastela in September, and my son (19) wanted to try diving. The weather was a bit unsettled, for the few days my son was here, with rain... read more and thunderstorms, but Ivica organised everything perfect. My son was soo happy with his first dive (first experience is so important), so he wants to do more next time he is here in Croatia.
Here what my son said"I went diving with Ivica who was extremely friendly and explained what we would be doing and what the purpose of each equipment piece was. He clearly knew what he was talking about which made me feel confident and less scared. As this was my first lesson we went to shallow water (max 10 meters) and he always made sure that I was feeling okay underwater. The boat we used to take us to the island was new and pretty fast which was great. Once there he gave me enough time to get used to breathing with the equipment and to learn how to achieve neutral buoyancy. All the equipment we used looked quite new and unused and worked flawlessly. We even got to see a really pretty jellyfish which was quite cool. Overall, the experience was outstanding and Ivica is a great instructor. I would highly recommend this centre for any newcomers who are willing to try out diving for the first time."
So overall experience is : Ivica, the instructor, is very friendly, helpful, knowledgeable.
The equipment is new, or almost new, very well looked after, in perfect working condition. The boat as well.
Highly recommended for new divers, and as its PADI certified, for more experienced divers as well.
