Albufeira Scuba Diving Introduction

At 1:45 pm, we'll meet at the dive center in the Albufeira Marina. The instructor will give a brief theory lesson, followed by filling out a simple questionnaire. We will then take the equipment and move to confined waters.

In the pool, you'll learn to put on the diving equipment and practice basic exercises for diving in open water. Skills include emptying your mask, sharing air with an emergency regulator, and communicating underwater.

After completing the exercises, we will go to the harbor, board a boat, and head to the selected dive site. We will dive to a maximum depth of 12 meters for about half an hour, exploring the seabed of Albufeira and trying to spot local fauna.

Once the pressure gauge signals it's time, we will return to the boat and arrive back at the dive center by 5:30 pm.

Important

After the last dive, wait at least 24 hours before boarding a plane or going to high altitude areas. The activity may be cancelled or modified in case of adverse weather conditions.
