It is quite simple, actually, it is easier than snorkeling. Pinch your nose with your fingers and breath through your nose, you will feel the same sensation as if you were underwater.

How long is an average dive?

It depends on the weather conditions and air consumption, but in general a dive lasts between 30 and 50 minutes.

At what age can you take a course?

How does the pressure of the water effect me?

Water is a heavy compound, and its weight affects our body in the form of pressure. The pressure increases when the depth increases.

During our course, you will learn to equalize the pressure in your ears, this will allow you to descend at ease.

Can I dive if I am pregnant?

No, if you are pregnant or think you may be pregnant you should avoid diving as the gases and the pressure can negatively affect the pregnancy.
