What to expect
You'll meet your instructor onsite and run through safety procedures before entering the water. The dive stays shallow and controlled, letting you adjust to breathing underwater without pressure. Your guide swims alongside, pointing out wildlife and rock formations, and can pause whenever you need. Expect cold water—a wetsuit is essential. The seabed here isn't pristine reef; it's rockier and more rugged, which creates interesting habitats for smaller species. You'll surface after roughly 30-40 minutes underwater, then debrief with your instructor.
