A comprehensive introduction to the world of recreational diving

Recreational diving opens up to you a world of underwater beauty that cannot be described in words and must be experienced.

What is the difference between recreational diving and free diving

In recreational diving, a compressed air cylinder is used that allows you to stay underwater for long periods of up to 45 minutes or more depending on your depth and air consumption.

Maximum depth in recreational diving

The maximum distance allowed for a recreational diver is 40 meters with proper training. Most fun dives are between 10 and 30 metres.

Basic Equipment

Cylinder and regulator
The cylinder carries compressed air and the regulator converts it to a pressure suitable for breathing at any depth.

Flotation Vest
A flotation vest, or BCD, allows you to control your buoyancy and carry the cylinder on your back.

Pressure and diving depth measurement
A device that shows you the amount of air remaining, the current depth and time underwater, which is essential for safety.
