2.(Full day)Scuba Diving in Rhodes

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 466 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $84Top rated

Spend about eight hours with The Waterhoppers Diving School, traveling by boat from Rhodes Town to clear waters near Kallithea Springs. Beginners receive full equipment, patient instruction, and one introductory underwater session, with snorkeling and an optional second session available.

“Zeker aan te bevelen! Ik en mijn vriendin zijn op onze vakantie deze excursie gaan doen en het is zekee niet tegen gevallen. Het was prachtig weer en de duik ervaring was ook top. Je vaart met de boot naar een baai 45 min verderop waarin je in groepen om ste beurt gaat duiken. Tussen door kun je zoveel snorkelen en zwemmen als je wilt. Het personeel is heel vriendelijk en heel internationaal ingesteld, dit maakt de omgang heel prettig. Het is aan te raden om er op de boot nog een 2e duik bij te boeken, wij hebben er geen spijt van gehad!”

I was able to enjoy my time scuba diving as I knew the children were in good hands also. We were so nervous but Petros puts you completely at ease. The area is also beautiful. We wish we could come and do it again!”

“Total duration is probably 5 hours. start was 10:00, and then there was a 30 min drive to the beach , got in the water at 12 and out at 1:40pm (dive length depended on how much air you breathed in or how much is left in tank). . There was not a lot in the water by scuba diving means,but there wasnt nothing either,lots of small fish and plants to see, especiall if you go to the full 9 metres, just dont accidentally kick the instructor like we did! The instructor George was very patient with us (both beginners) and explained all the procedures and safety protocols several times.…”
