It was really fun. As a first timer I didn't know what to expect but the Omega team, most notably the induction by Marina and David for assisting me during the dive, made me feel at ease. All the rest of the team was great too but I'm not good with names sorry 🫣 I will surely do another session next time I'm in Crete.

Had a great time, briefing before the activity. Brought to a secluded beach where we suited up in wetsuits and the diving gear, tanks, buoyancy gear, weights. It was a bit cumbersome getting the clippers on in the cove and my partner smacked his head against a rock trying to do so, so that was a slight downside. Otherwise great time, lots of fish, sponges etc to explore. Instructors take pics with GoPro throughout and provide the picture by email after a day or so. Dive lasted about 30 mins. Would recommend, very friendly instructors.

The experience was very nice. It's just like snorkeling but in the water not at the surface. The instructors were nice and relaxed and polite, especially ours (Freya) wich was amazing and encouraging. I would say it is worthwhile and a must do at least once. You can always go to the surface in seconds so you don't feel any danger, always light, always others, you can always see the bottom. Definitely worth the price.
