It was my first dive in many years so I was a little nervous to begin with, but Stefan was a brilliant guide who helped refresh the basics and once we got into the water it was nice and straightforward. Can't recommend this activity enough, great dive centre, friendly staff, and Stefan in particular was super helpful and knowledgeable. Will be recommending to friends and when I return to Playa, I'll be sure to do this activity again!”
