Great experience

For me it was the first time diving at all, I felt thanks to the great German-speaking team always safe and well looked after. The coach Vera, who was put on my side, explained everything in peace, took a lot of time to rehearse the use of the equipment in the pool, so that I could then go diving with her into the sea. It was asked before the experience, whether the dive should be postponed due to the bad weather of the previous day and corresponding poor visibility, which I said no (all days already planned), so I did not expect so much visibility in the sea and was pleasantly surprised: I swam by schools of fish, saw some larger fish, sea urchins etc, for my first dive absolutely sufficient and great. 100% recommendation! Thank you to the great team! :-)

Tolles Erlebnis

Für mich war es das erste Mal tauchen überhaupt, ich habe mich Dank des tollen deutschsprachigen Teams jederzeit sicher und gut betreut gefühlt. Die mir zur Seite gestellte Trainerin Vera hat alles in Ruhe erklärt, sich viel Zeit genommen, um im Pool die Gerätenutzung zu proben, damit ich dann bestens vorbereitet mit ihr ins Meer tauchen gehen konnte.
Es wurde vor dem Erlebnis gefragt, ob der Tauchgang aufgrund des schlechten Wetters der Vortage und entsprechend schlechter Sicht verschoben werden soll, was ich verneinte (alle Urlaubstage schon verplant), daher erwartete ich nicht so viel Sicht im Meer und wurde positiv überrascht: Ich schwamm durch Fischschwärme, sah einzelne etwas größere Fische, Seeigel etc, für meinen ersten Tauchgang absolut ausreichend und toll. 100%ige Weiterempfehlung!
Dankeschön an das tolle Team! :-)

That was amazing

We decided spontaneously to try the dive times. What can I say: The team was MEGA-friendly and explained everything very slowly, and I dived at the dive very safe. Really great, Mallorca under water, you should have seen, I can only recommend!

Das war der hammer

Wir haben uns relativ spontan dazu entschlossen, das mit dem Tauchen mal auszuprobieren. Was soll ich sagen: Hat super geklappt, das Team war MEGAfreundlich und hat alles schön langsam erklärt, und beim Tauchgang hab ich mich an der Seite vom Tauchlehrer sehr sicher gefühlt. Wirklich toll, Mallorca unter Wasser, das sollte man mal gesehen haben, kann ich nur empfehlen!!

A great first experience

I wanted to dive ever want to try and have me in your last vacation on the East Coast in Mallorca finally married. The team of the diving school was totally friendly and efficient and has brought me step by step of diving - and especially nice and slow, I´m a coward :) It was a totally unique experience, when I finally was underwater, we are on 6 meter immersed deep. All the fish around you, and then these very different-looking aquatic plants ... so the next holiday I´m definitely for the diving course again. Thanks for the cool introductory dive and your patience with me :)

Ein tolles erstes Erlebnis

Ich wollte das Tauchen schon immer mal ausprobieren und hab mich im letzten Urlaub an der Ostküste in Mallorca endlich getraut. Das Team der Tauchschule war total freundlich und kompetent und hat mich Schritt für Schritt ans Tauchen herangeführt - und vor allem schön langsam, ich bin ja ein Angsthase :) Es war ein total einzigartiges Erlebnis, als ich dann endlich unterwasser war, wir sind auf 6 Meter tief getaucht. Die ganzen Fische um einen herum, und dann diese ganz anders aussehenden Wasserpflanzen... also im nächsten Urlaub komme ich definitiv für den Tauchkurs wieder. Danke für den coolen Schnuppertauchgang und eure Geduld mit mir :)

Was a good night dive

Together with my friend I booked the night dive. We were very zufrienden, the dive equipment was in order and we are immersed in a very beautiful place. Night diving is a little scary but also quite fascinating - but you can see some fish and animals that versteckeln during the day!

War ein guter Nachttauchgang

Zusammen mit meiner Freundin habe ich den Nachttauchgang gebucht. Wir waren sehr zufrienden, das Tauch-Equipment war in Ordnung und wir sind zu einem sehr schönen platz getaucht. Nachts ist das Tauchen etwas unheimlich aber auch sehr faszinierend - man sieht doch einige Fische und Tiere, die sich tagsüber versteckeln!
