Are you passing near Hyères, Toulon or even Saint-Tropez and want to try scuba diving for the first time? Then don't miss the chance to discover scuba diving from La Londe-les-Maures, the ideal starting point for a trip to the famous Golden Islands! What's more, you don't need to know how to swim to take part in this diving activity near Hyères - all you need is to be comfortable in the water!
Your diving activity in the Port-Cros National Park begins in La Londe-les-Maures. At the diving centre, you'll meet the passionate instructor who will accompany you on your adventure to ensure your safety and explain everything you need to know about scuba diving and the equipment used. After this briefing, you'll start practising in the club's heated pool and take your first breaths underwater with the guidance of your professional instructor. This gentle first approach will be done at your own pace to help you become familiar with diving.
In the afternoon or the following day (depending on your preferences) you will continue the activity with the most interesting part: the dive in the Port-Cros National Park. You'll set off by boat to a dive site near the Golden Islands, chosen with your instructor according to the weather and your preferences. The dive sites include several secs (small mountains underwater), the Gabinière drop-off renowned for its fish-filled waters, and even a wreck visible at depths of between 3 and 15 metres, the Cimentier!
Whatever your choice, you may be lucky enough to encounter barracudas, dories, sunfish and even turtles during your dive near Hyères! Always accompanied by your qualified instructor, you'll be in optimum conditions to enjoy a magical experience in complete safety.
