Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Of course it is. Recreational scuba diving is rigorously regulated by international standards established by the WRSTC and applied through SDI via highly qualified instructors.
Instructors are responsible for carrying out and enforcing all safety protocols. The limits established by SDI are extremely conservative to ensure prevention on every dive, which is why learning to recognize your personal limits is essential. If you have any doubts about your certification or the boundaries of your training, feel free to contact us or ask your instructor directly.
Taking a course with us guarantees our full commitment to making your training as easy as possible for you, without omitting any safety or approval requirements. If more days and extra practice are needed, we do it.
However, as instructors, we may have to make the difficult decision not to pass someone if we believe their performance would make the activity unsafe.
These cases are extreme; anyone with dedication and willpower can successfully complete the courses.
Depending on the condition you have or have had, diving may or may not be possible. If you have any doubts, feel free to contact us and we will put you in touch with a diving physician. You can also consult your regular doctor and ask them about the activity; in that case, they will need to provide you with a medical certificate explicitly stating that you are fit to dive.
The most important thing to bring is a desire for adventure. All the necessary equipment for the activity is included, so you don’t have to worry about a thing. If you like, you can bring your personal towel and biodegradable sunscreen, as regular sunscreen is not allowed because it damages the coral reef. Swimwear is recommended.
