THE CENTRE AND ITS SERVICES

A wide terrace over looking the sea, and connected to the dock for the exclusive use of our clients, paves the way to the more operative side of the organisation: the reception, administrative offices, classrooms, equipment stores, rest rooms and boutiques. The rinsing pool and the lockers reserved for our clients' personal equipment are situated at the back of the complex. In front of the Centre, a beautiful beach provides a perfect location for beginners who prefer a more gentle introduction to underwater diving.

DAILY DIVES

The boats leave the dock every morning in the direction of the most interesting underwater diving areas that are situated, for the greater part, at distances of 50 minutes or an hour and a half sailing. Two guided underwater diving expeditions are programmed during the outing, with a break between them for lunch on board boat. Non divers can also take part in the expeditions and snorkel along the beautiful barrier reefs.

Underwater diving expeditions are provided to explore the wrecks of Abu Nuhas, the Salem Express and the Thistlegorm. A mini-cruise involving one or two nights can be arranged to the Thistlegorm.
