About
For your 2nd dive we will dive at Green Bay. Because you just have done your theory session during your Discover Scuba Diving experience, there is no need to repeat it in depth. Instead we will put our gear together and jump straight in the water.
You will have the chance to feed the fish again and visit a statue garden. One of them is a horse you can sit on and get some beautiful pictures. During your 45 min dive, you will see a variety of marine life. When you are lucky there might be a turtle eating some sea grass for lunch or you will spot a sea horse holding on to a little rock.
After the dive, we will go back to the dive school, have some refreshments while you are watching your photographs on TV. At the end we will drive you back to your hotel.
