Are there any restrictions for diving?

Yes, there are both relative and absolute restrictions. Before you dive, you’ll complete a health assessment questionnaire to determine your eligibility.

Can divers choose the dive spots?

Dive spots are chosen daily based on what the sea and our divers are like. The ICMBio, our environmental authority, makes sure we stick to the rules and do things right for the environment.

How long does each dive last?

Discovery Scuba Diving: You’ll be underwater for about 30 minutes, but you can come up at any time by signaling your instructor.
