The Dive Centre at Bathala is fully equipped
and staffed by highly experienced, expert instructors speaking English,
German and Italian. Courses are offered with both PADI and CMAS
certification.
Bathala is the place for those who want to learn to dive the right
way. The instruction and pre-dive preparations are thorough, with
fuller and more comprehensive briefings for divers. Instruction
is also personalised, with 9-lesson courses conducted for groups
of no more than three divers at a time. Each course lasts 5-7 days
and consists of 8 or 9 dives, theory, full equipment and certificate.
At Bathala, protecting the environment we love is a priority. All
dives and dive training are conducted with maximum care for the
sea, the reefs and the creatures that live in them. |
