Ivica is a calm, jovial and professional diving instructor. His approach to scuba diving exudes confidence, which builds your courage.

  Whilst reading previous reviews, I came across your argument "In our country,we have strict rules and we follow Padi standards and procedures." That is DEFINITELY not true!

I... read more turned up and they just started giving me stuff to gear up and get ready.
They asked me 'what level are you? How many dives have you done?' But at no point did anyone check my certification or care about there being any validity in what I said. The dive centre in Dubrovnik I did some diving with the following week were much stricter about checking my card!

FAR worse, they didnt ever ask me to fill in the official PADI medical form. I just turned up, did some diving and left. They have no real record of me diving or any of my details at all!!!

Thankfully it was all okay, but I have to answer yes to one of the medical questions so I have to get my doctor to sign a copy of the form before I go away to say that my condition doesnt affect my suitability to dive. It is a lifelong condition with daily medication and Venus had no idea!

Again, in Dubrovnik, the centre took a photocopy of the form my doctor signed before allowing me to dive. This has always been the case everywhere I've been diving. I was shocked and appalled that neither my certification OR my medical details were checked.

Absolutely disgraceful safety standards.

  Super staff, very friendly and chill, will certainly help you enjoy your time here, efficient, it is a pleasure to spend time on board with the team.

  The diving experience was excellent. The instructor try to explain the basic teory in easy way, so somebody who doesn't speak english could also understand it, which was really heplfull... read more because of my dad.
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.
