What to expect

Thanks to its mineral-rich volcanic landscape, Sicily's waters are full of life. And it's just the place if you fancy trying out scuba diving for the very first time. You'll enjoy a taster of breathing and seeing underwater – and learning the basics - on this discovery experience without having to commit to a course.

After making your own way to the port in Giardini-Naxos, you'll set off cruising along the coast. With the mighty Mount Etna looming in the background, you'll sail into the island nature reserve of Isola Bella. Literally translated as ‘beautiful island', this is a good spot for clocking wildlife.

Complete beginners and anyone aged above 10 are welcome on this discovery experience, which will give you an introduction to all things scuba diving. See what it's like to breathe underwater, and learn the basics to get you started alongside expert instructors. And once you're comfortable, you'll perform a shallow dive in the Grotta Azurra and Grotta Del Giorno sea caves.
