For many years the spectacular world of diving
in the beautiful Aegean Archipelago was open to only a few individuals
who were granted special permission by the authorities striving
to protect the many underwater treasures and wrecks of archaeological
importance.
It is true that the seabed of Greece is among the richest in ship
wrecks dating as far back as the 5th century B.C. More specifically
the area around Skopelos, Alonissos and the Marine park have the
second largest concentration of ancient and Middle Ages sea wrecks
in the world. Many shipwrecks have been discovered with the most
famous being that off the coast of Peristera island across Alonissos
where the findings are stunning. For more information about the
Alonissos shipwreck at http://www.sportesport.it/wrecksGR009.htm
The National Marine Park, one of the best preserved
marine ecosystems in the Med, is an excellent opportunity to dive
into crystal clear waters of significant importance to our European
and world heritage.

Now both the certified sport divers
and beginners keen to learn and acquire their first
certified diving diploma can do so while holidaying on the beautiful
Sporades islands, namely Skiathos, Skopelos and Alonissos, which
are surrounded by pristine waters, with a very interesting variety
of fish, lobster, crabs, octopus, sea horses, sea anemones and even
corals.
There are three diving centres in the Sporades islands,
two in Skiathos island and one in Alonissos island. All centres
offer introductory dives and PADI certificates.
Discover the unexpected beauty of the Aegean underwater
world while holidaying with us!
We will organise for you, either introductory dives
or PADI open water diver courses. We may also book you to introductory
dives exclusively for you and your companion.
With the introductory dives, you
and your family are given the chance to discover the beauty of diving
as a sport and to view the beauty of the Aegean sea, a unique chance
to discover the Mediterranean red coral, to spot an octopus, soles
of fish, sea anemones and other sea creatures. The water clarity
can be up to 30 meters, which will give you a most enjoyable experience
as you will be able to clearly see the underwater action!
With the completion of your introductory dive, you will get a
participation certificate which although is not an official certificate,
it will always remind you of this unique experience!
