The boat slips away from the marina, engines low and the Mediterranean opening in front of you — blue that deepens toward the horizon. Instructors lay out regulators and masks with quick, practiced hands while the island’s limestone cliffs stand quiet and indifferent. You get a short theoretical briefing on shore, then the real lesson begins: two guided dives from the boat into warm, clear water.
