Become a diver
Turn your passion for the sea into your hobby!
Learning to dive is not difficult and above all very fun. You learn to dive at a diving school. It is advisable to choose a school that is affiliated with a renowned organization like FEDAS, PADI, CMAS, NAUI, or SSI. It is important to know the possibilities and the program of the diving school or association. Take a visit and ask about the experiences of others. Most diving schools offer an introductory dive (sometimes also a short course). So you can experience in practice if diving is something for you.

What equipment do you need to start diving?
100% -COVID Protection
Mask: Allows you to have vision underwater.
Fins: They serve to move around in the water.
Booties: They fulfill the mission of isolating the feet from the cold.
Weight belt and weights Essential in diving, so that your body descends in the water.
Neoprene: Essential in your practice, but even more so in diving, since depending on the water temperature you will need a wet, semi-dry or dry suit.
Gloves and hood: They are perfect accessories to protect yourself from low temperatures.
Hydrostatic vest: Also called a jacket or wing, it is the vest that will allow us to ascend in the immersion and also serves as a lifeguard.
Regulator: This is the respirator that connects to the air bottle. It is also the one that fulfills the function of inflating and deflating the hydrostatic vest.
Computer: Allows you to dive safer, more fun and easier. The computer displays a lot of information during the dive, such as decompression data, dive time, depth, and alerts you with alarms.
