About the activity

Nothing compares to the “weightless” exhilaration of breathing underwater. This Discover Scuba Diving experience in Antiparos is designed for everyone interested in Greek marine life and underwater activities. It is quite easy and safe, seeing as you'll be accompanied by an expert instructor at all times, and they'll teach you all you need to know to handle the equipment and scuba dive successfully!

You'll start this Discover Scuba Diving experience in Antiparos at the Blue Island Divers headquarters on the northeastern side of the island. There, you'll meet your expert instructor who will welcome you and have you sign some paperwork referring to the activity. When you're done with that, they'll explain how the activity will work, and then distribute the wetsuit, mask, fins, snorkel, regulator, tank, and buoyancy compensator that constitute the essential scuba diving equipment, as well as give you some time to change and prepare.

Once everyone is ready, you'll receive a thorough theory lesson on how to use the equipment and learn some breathing techniques so you can be comfortable and safe in the water. Next, it's time for the dive! You will begin this discover scuba diving experience in Antiparos by immersing yourself in very shallow waters and practising for a while before you start heading for the deep end. And when you're ready, your instructor will find the perfect, tranquil spot for you to try this amazing sport for the first time. Your dive will take place at a maximum depth of 12 metres and last for around 30 minutes.

Some of the spots available around Antiparos for your first dive include:

Tourna - This small Island has the added attraction of the church of St Nicholas, The Patron Saint of Antiparos, built upon it. The dive itself starts over a nice sheltered lagoon where you will drop into very shallow water and you will be able to get the buoyancy and kit together before descending down to a maximum depth of 12 metres. This site is frequented very regularly by large schools of amberjacks as well as barracuda. On regular dives, you can find octopus, moray eels and scorpion fish.

Red Rock - a large piece of volcanic rock jutting out of the sea just a 10-minute boat ride from the Dive Centre. The formation has a reddish colour to it, hence its name. The bottom of the main base is 12 metres. With plenty of nooks and crannies and a swim-through along the way, you are guaranteed at least a couple of Morays hiding in their holes.

St. Spiridhon - Built on the top of a rock, the church dedicated to St Spiridhon commands amazing views of the North of Antiparos and across to Parikia, Paros. There is always time to climb up there during. Mooring up in a sheltered bay just 5 metres deep you will enter the water and move along the bottom looking for Octopus and Morays. You will swim past a small cavern where a growing number of Groupers have taken up residence.

Don't forget to bring your swimsuit, towel, sunscreen, a bottle of water, some snacks, and anything else you might need (medication, etc.) to spend an amazing half-day (around 4 hours) on this incredible discover scuba diving experience in Antiparos, Greece!

Our Discover diving course was fantastic! The team was incredibly friendly, and it was our first time diving, but we loved every moment of it! We wholeheartedly recommend this experience to others and are already looking forward to returning for the full Open Water course!
