If you haven’t tried scuba diving before there are several PADI programs that you can follow with us.
All the PADI programs can be performed in English, Greek, Italian, or French with our multi-lingual team.
All PADI courses take place either in small groups up to 5 persons or private sessions, in days and hours that suit the students.
The first lessons for beginners usually take place in the pool and then in the secure and protected bay close to the IKION DIVE CENTER, with depths of 0 to 10 metres. In the reefs of Alonissos seas more than 30 different marine species have been found among the rock formations.
For children over 10 years old, tailor made programs are proposed, which can lead to a PADI certification (Junior Open Water Diver, Junior Adventure Diver, Junior Rescue Diver, etc).
This way the whole family can find the activity that suits its members’ needs.
