Unfriendly staff, a shame.
Picked up a little later by the driver, but a nice tube with air conditioning. The driver drove very fast to be on time for the people who still had to get in. Arrived at the boat, unfriendly staff, this remained so throughout the entire tour. The boat is just leaving the harbor, not even 5 minutes yet. Kokkin did her best for lunch, let's stop there. Upselling on the boat by selling photos/videos from the first dive, and for the second dive, allowing you to dive deeper than 5-7 meters. Drinks reasonably priced. I'm booking somewhere else next time.

Absolutely recommended!
The pickup was slightly delayed, but worked smoothly.
The diving itself was accompanied by a professional, very friendly crew. Optionally, there were the normal (2), or for a small surcharge, one (or 2) "special" dives that took place separately, longer, and deeper. During those, a fantastic underwater landscape and various animal species were presented to one, which was truly breathtakingly beautiful. Between the dives there was lunch, which tasted quite good. All in all, absolutely recommended and a super price-performance ratio. Gladly again.

Professional and skilled
We were picked up at hotel. Just in time. Keep in touch via WhatsApp. In the boat were all friendly people. Very professional. It makes you feel safe. I was very excited. Felt like I was panicking, but they guided me very well. My children of 11 and 12 years old were also able to dive, they also received very good guidance while diving.
Food was ample. Advice from me is to bring your own drinks, this is not included in the price.
What I found unfortunate was that we stayed near the coast. Expected us to go a little further into the sea.

super
The boat ride out was good, but the wait for the first dive was very long. I was in Group 19, and there were 26 groups of 4–5 people, so there were a lot of people on board. Me and my friend waited around 2 hours before our first dive.
We went on a discounted day, so I can't guarantee these prices, but we paid €50 total (€25 each), which I thought was great value. From what I know, the normal price is around €100 for 3 people, so roughly €33 per person. Personally, I think the normal price is quite expensive, but the discounted price is definitely worth it.
There were two boats joined together, so when the boat was stationary you could walk between them for more space. There's also a bathroom near the food counter—I'm mentioning this because I struggled to find it.
The instructors were amazing and made me feel safe throughout. You get two dives, with the first mainly for photos and videos. As a complete beginner and not a strong swimmer, I panicked at first because it felt strange breathing underwater, but the instructor immediately reassured me and would have taken me to the surface if needed.
Unfortunately, we couldn't visit another dive site because of the current, but we still saw plenty of fish and marine life.
The food was nice enough, and the second dive was much quicker because fewer people chose to do it.
My only complaint was the staff fitting the equipment before the dives. My BCD was too loose, my goggles kept letting water in, and before the second dive my BCD wasn't fully inflated. I only noticed because I asked them not to push me into the water until I'd put my regulator in, and they realised it hadn't been inflated properly. As I'm not a strong swimmer, that was quite concerning.
My advice is to check your BCD is fully inflated, your goggles fit properly, and all your straps are secure before getting into the water. Despite that issue, I had a great experience and would definitely recommend it, especially for first-time divers.

A fab way to spend a day!
This was my second dive excursion in two days.
The instructions and support from the crew was very good and reassuring.
The two 20/25 minute dives were special. Our diving instructor was understanding and encouraging.
The collection and return to my hotel was very efficient.
As someone who is close to 60 years old, it was a really easy and relaxing day. This was definitely worth the money and time.

First diving - experience
You can expect a truly beautiful day on the boat at sea.
The first dive is to get accustomed to the basics, but also for photos that will be sold later.
The second dive was unfortunately a bit short (5-8m) in relation to the first.
While the others are diving, you can go swimming or sunbathe on the boat.
The food was delicious.

Nice but long wait
Security was top. There were, however, too many people for too little equipment.
The waiting time was long and diving very short.
