- Marina di Villasimius Srl - Have you ever tried to breathe underwater? No? Well, this is the right opportunity. Immerse yourself with our guides in the Marine Protected Area of Capo Carbonara and you will live a unique experience. You will be able to observe a great variety of marine species: from plants (hydrophytes) such as Posidonia Oceanica to larger fish such as Grouper (Epinephelus marginatus), passing through the small and magical Damselfish (Chromis chromis) and the fearsome, but harmless, Barracuda (Sphyraena viridensis). The experience begins with a short theoretical lesson by our guides who will teach you about the use of scuba diving equipment (air breathing apparatus) and safety concepts. At that point, with the notions provided by the guides, you will carry out a real dive lasting 30 minutes at a maximum depth of 5 meters! Activity recommended for those who DO NOT have the diving qualification license (Open Water Diver)

Theory: Diving Center
Delimited basin: Spiaggia del Riso
Open waters: from inflatable boat in AMP
The Marine Protected Area of Capo Carbonara extends from Capo Boi to the island of Serpentara, but its heart is located on the Isola dei Cavoli where zones A are located (only divers are allowed access) and B or those rich in marine life.
Obviously they are not the only points where marine flora and fauna are in abundance, in fact, based on the marine weather conditions, you can dive at the rock of S. Caterina or Cava Usai.

Great once in a lifetime experience for beginner scuba divers! - Our first time deep sea diving and it was the most memorable part of our trip! We saw many fishes. Diving instructor was one to one, which is a plus for beginners like me. I was really nervous but everyone on the team made me feel at ease. There were two different diving locations to explore. We went to the second location. Whilst waiting for our turn, we had the opportunity to go snorkelling too, which is a good warm up prior to scuba diving! Overall highly recommend to everyone! The water was super clear!

Please allow yourself to experience this! - The team was great, they helped my wife, who was pretty much hesitating to go scuba diving for all her life, to relax and try it. And now she wants to try it again! The team was friendly, professional and they know a lot about the special situation (preserved status) around villasimius. Would highly recommend them ánd the experience to really understand the beauty of villasimius.

Professional diving school with beautiful dive - Professional diving center. Contact worked perfectly. The theory was explained to you in great detail and well before you went diving. I booked the day trip Try Dive and my friend booked the snorkeling trip. We both liked it. I have already dived in Galapagos and Malaysia and the diving spot with the rocks, reef and nature reserve has some beautiful fish to offer. It was much better organized than in Malaysia and the support was one-on-one. The price was a bit steep but worth the money. I would be happy to do it again. Thank you very much.

Excellent Adventure - These guys were amazing, they took you through everything you needed to know as a novice and ensured that you were comfortable throughout. I was welcomed at the site, fitted for wetsuit & fins and then had a great one-to-one brief. Went out to the dive site on the boat with others and my instructor stayed with me throughout. We spent over 30 minutes at 8 metres looking at the various fish and rock structures, if you have never done this before then it is a great opportunity to do so. Safety is paramount so have confidence when booking this trip. You will kick yourself if you do not book this!

Amazing experience! - The guys were great. It was my first time trying this and I was scared as hell! Jacopo was very instructive and patient. He led us out into the water by boat and was patient as I worked on my breathing. Would 100% recommend. Great tea too!

Professional and cool team - We spent two mornings with the Archeo team, snorkeling and then a guided dive for my husband and myself (certified divers) and a try dive for our 10 year old. We were very happy with the service. The guides were professional but also cool and relaxed, and very good with our child. They created a good atmosphere on the boat which for me is an important ingredient of a good dive. The sea bottom in Villasimius is nice, don't expect to see anything extraordinary but in the reserve there is a lot of fish.

Lovely afternoon - we had a scuba diving excursion on a sunday afternoon. It turned out to be a private excursion beacause we where the only participants. I had broken my toe the day earlier and wanst sure how it would turned out. Julia and Michele where super friendly and making sure we were doing ok during the whole experience. The big boot was broken so we had to take the little boot. Michele was so friendly to hold the parasol above our heads when we came on board to rest a bit. They offered water and verry delicious cookies during the trip.
Tank you for the memories, you where lovely.

Great experience - We went on a snorkel trip and it was actually very nice! They are very professional and kind with the tourists.
It’s also a nice point that they know several languages (since we are from Spain and don’t know any Italian) They have a pick up service as well and for a good price. It was a great experience, I strongly recommend it!
