Description
This introductory scuba diving course in Cartagena de Indias invites you to experience an enjoyable underwater adventure in a safe environment, while discovering the vibrant marine life of the Colombian Caribbean.
Beginner Scuba Diving Course in Cartagena
At the scheduled time, your hotel pickup will commence as we make our way to Blanca Baru Beach to kick off your scuba diving lesson.
We will start with a brief session on theoretical knowledge, equipping you with the essential skills for underwater mobility before boarding a boat that will navigate us to our designated diving spot.
Now it’s time to immerse yourself! Enjoy an exhilarating 35 minutes of diving in the Caribbean Sea where you can anticipate encounters with lobsters and turtles. Keep your eyes open for schools of colorful tropical fish that gracefully swim among the corals and rocky formations.
Following our underwater adventure, we’ll return to the boat and head towards Tranquila Beach. Here, you can unwind on the sandy shores and take a refreshing swim before we enjoy lunch. A delightful main course awaits, allowing you to choose from mojarra fish, chicken breast, pork, or a vegetarian option, all served alongside salads and a beverage.
Finally, we will take you back to your hotel in Cartagena, with an estimated return time of 7.5 to 8 hours after our departure.
