Highlights

Enjoy our complimentary pick-up service from your Athens hotel with our air-conditioned mini van, taking you on a 30-minute drive to the dive sites.

Upon arrival at the dive site, your experienced instructor will provide a brief overview of what to expect and teach you a few simple skills necessary for safe diving. These include mask clearing, ear equalization to water pressure, regulator usage, proper fin kicking, and basic hand signals.

Your instructor will also supply all the essential scuba gear, which is well-maintained annually and relatively new. This includes a mask, fins, regulator, buoyancy control device, wetsuit, dive gauges, and a tank.

After the briefing, it’s time for the excitement: In waters no deeper than 30 feet (10 meters), you’ll experience breathing underwater for the first time in crystal-clear, warm waters! You’ll encounter marine life such as eels, octopuses, sea bass, bream, and various schools of Mediterranean fish, along with numerous macro creatures.

All beginners will scuba dive in small groups of no more than six divers per instructor, ensuring personalized attention for each participant. Additionally, all divers are insured by DAN.

Lastly, our crew has an underwater camera and, if you wish, we can capture all your memories and provide them to you at the end of the dive, free of charge!

Discovery of bottle diving - It was an amazing experience. After the first 5 minutes, I started to feel comfortable with the advice of my instructor. He was very attentive and I thank him very much for finding a way for me to gain confidence and fully appreciate the dive.

All-around incredible - Absolutely everything about this experience was perfect. The pickup at hotel was great, my instructor/driver was super fun and had tons of stories about Greece and mythology. She thought the beach was a bit busy so we drove to another spot, we got lucky and there was only ONE other person diving there! Incredible! She was extremely professional underwater and if she saw anything I missed she would tap me and point out cool creatures hidden in the rocks. I opted to take the additional tour with the same company down to Sounion after the dive to see the Temple of Poseidon and that was a great experience as well! The owners of the shop are super friendly, their mom was at the shop and she even had snacks for us for after the dive! Once we returned I chatted with George for a while and he gave me a few tips on places I should check out on my next stops. 100% I'd recommend Extreme Divers Athens, this was one of the best experiences I've had in my life and I'm looking forward to coming back!

Best instructor! - I had the pleasure of working with Ellie, who was exceptional. She provided clear, step-by-step explanations and was a delight to converse with. Initially, I was anxious as I hadn't been swimming since I was 12, but Ellie's guidance completely alleviated my nervousness. Her expertise and demeanour were truly commendable. -wahe:)

Unforgettable experience! - We had a fantastic time for our first time scuba diving - our instructor was super patient with us while we got used to all the equipment and get comfortable before going deeper into the water and once we were in it was epic! Would absolutely go again and I’m so pleased our first experience of diving was in the ocean with so much to see! We had a whale of a time! ;) Thank you so much to, Danae and the team at Extreme Divers!
