What to expect
You'll start with a thorough briefing on the beach covering basic techniques and safety signals. Once in the shallows, instructors demonstrate equipment and breathing before guiding you deeper to explore the reef. Visibility is typically excellent, and marine life—parrotfish, angelfish, anemones—appears immediately. Your pace stays relaxed; there's no rush or competition. Most find the sensation of weightlessness disorienting at first, then utterly absorbing.
Good to know
Moderate fitness required; cardiovascular issues and pregnancy are contraindications. Wear reef-safe sunscreen before arriving. Public transport reaches the dive site easily. Bring a towel and dry change of clothes.
