In the south of Portugal lies the Algarve, a destination not to be missed if you love the ocean. In fact, the Algarve is Portugal's best region for surfing and diving, with a pleasant year-round climate and 205 kilometres of picturesque coastline. If you're looking for an introduction to the world of scuba diving, why not try your first dive in Albufeira in the Algarve?
Easy Dive instructors have been guiding students on their first dive since 1983. They are located in the port of Albufeira, the capital of the Algarve. At their diving center, you'll be given a warm welcome before taking an initial theory course on the basics of diving. Once you've assimilated the key concepts, it's time to practise diving in a pool with three exercises.
Then you'll finally be ready for your first ocean dive! You'll board the Easy Dive boat and, from the port of Albufeira, set off on your first dive into the Atlantic with your dedicated instructor for half an hour at a maximum depth of 12 metres. During your first dive in Albufeira, you'll experience the immensity of the Atlantic Ocean as you swim with the colourful fish that populate Portugal's coastline, including rays, mullets and octopus!
Throughout this diving activity in Albufeira, you'll be supervised by experienced instructors on hand to guarantee your safety and make sure you progress with ease. The instructors will provide you with quality equipment and explain how to use it. At the diving centre, everything will be organised for your comfort and a hot shower will be waiting for you at the end of the activity!
