About this tour

Take a beginner scuba diving lesson and dive in Corfu, starting with the basics before heading into shallow water to explore the underwater world. The 2.5-hour experience is designed for absolute beginners and finishes with a Discover Scuba Diving certificate.

Learn the basics, then dive

Start with a 20-minute lesson on diving fundamentals and how to use scuba equipment. Once you are kitted up, practise simple skills in the water, including clearing your mask, controlling your buoyancy and clearing the demand valve. After practising, continue with a 45-minute dive to a maximum depth of 8 metres.

Look out for octopus, sea urchins, bream, scorpion fish, mullets, shells and other marine life as you explore Corfu’s underwater world. The shallow-water dive is a chance to experience the open sea and the feeling of weightlessness, with a small group so your instructor can give you attention.

Practical details

The activity lasts 2.5 hours and is available with a guide in English, French, German or Greek. It is suitable for absolute beginners, but participants should be comfortable in the water. The maximum dive depth is 8 metres. Booking is required at least 10 hours in advance, and free cancellation is available.

    We only go into the water from the riverbank, there wasn‘t a boat drive or something else. The guides ware really friendly und professional. There are guides for English, German and French. We were in a small group with 4 persons plus 2 guides, that’s good. The riverbank isn’t sandy, there are many stones. For beginners it‘s a good lesson, we dive about 4-5 meters deep, I think.

    First of all when you get there they tell you that you have to pay 10 euro extra for the pictures. In the description says that the maximum amount of people are five and we were at least seven, the pictures were few for 10 euros extra and with the amount of money that you pay they could at least took us with a boat a little further from the shore. I had other experiences in Greece, I paid less, the diving place was far more better and the dive took place in an area where you could see the creatures under the water and a small reef, here you are diving from the shore and you see the rocks from the bottom of the sea and maybe a few small fishes. And for those five pictures that I had in which obviously I wasn't alone and I barely figured out which one was me it doesn't worth paying 10 euro extra besides those 80 that you pay when you book the diving lesson. And in the end of course that we finished everything with an hour earlier than they said on the description.
