What to Expect from Your Discover Scuba Diving Experience

You’ll start with a short, simple briefing where we explain how to breathe, move and feel comfortable underwater—step by step, at your pace.

Step 1: Introduction & Briefing

We start by explaining everything you need to know—how to breathe, how to move, and how to stay comfortable underwater.

 Step 2: Practice in Shallow Water

Before going deeper, you’ll practice a few simple skills in shallow, calm water.
There’s no rush—we take the time you need.

 Step 3: Your First Open Water Dive

Once you feel ready, we take you on your first real dive in the sea, staying within the depth limits of the Discover Scuba Diving programme and adapting the dive to your comfort and confidence

Once you’re comfortable, it’s time to explore — swimming with your instructor and experiencing the underwater world for yourself.

 

Why Cyprus is One of the Best Places to Try Scuba Diving

Cyprus offers ideal conditions for beginner divers:

  •  Clear, warm water
  •  Excellent visibility
  •  Calm sea conditions, especially in Protaras
  •  Easy entry dive sites like Green Bay

These conditions make learning to dive in Cyprus easier, safer, and far more enjoyable.

Your First Dive Site:
Protaras & Green Bay

Most Discover Scuba Diving experiences with Dive Cypria take place in the Protaras area, known for its calm, protected bays.

Green Bay is often used for first dives because it offers:

  • Shallow, gradual depth

  • Calm, predictable conditions

It’s the perfect environment to build confidence from your very first breath underwater.
