3. Scuba diving introduction in Protaras

Two hours at coastal dive sites — a beginner-friendly dive experience with complimentary photos and videos included.

“As I wait at Larnaca airport for my flight to London, I'm reflecting on my favorite moments from my five-day trip in sunny Ayia Napa. Undoubtedly, the highlight was my scuba diving experience with Sirens. Although I’m not a swimmer and often feel breathless, I was initially scared of what lies beneath the water. Then I met my instructor Shaun, who truly lives up to the praise for his incredible patience. He helped calm my nerves and made me feel capable, even when I signaled for help underwater. The personal attention he provided was exceptional; he made sure I felt both comfortable and encouraged. I am grateful to Shaun for helping me reach this milestone that I couldn't have achieved without his support. He is not only a fantastic instructor but also a genuinely kind person. I hope to see him again in "not so sunny" London. Thanks also to Richard for making the entire process smooth. I highly recommend Sirens Dive Centre; you can trust that Shaun will take good care of you underwater. I hope to return soon. Happy Easter.”— Supriya B
