Where

Šibenik, Croatia

Šibenik, Brač and Tisno. Our base is Šibenik, and the boat dives leave from there.

Booking and weather

Sessions are not cancellable. Weather moves the date, it does not undo the booking: if conditions are unsafe or unusable, we agree a new date together and your booking stays.

Questions

Do I need to be certified to work with you?

We work both with certified and non-certified divers. Let us know your goals and we can arrange a plan.

I'm certified with PADI/SSI/CMAS. Does that matter?

Not at all. Skills don't care about logos. SDI courses also accept prior certifications from any recognized agency.

Do you teach complete beginners?

Yes. Full SDI Open Water courses and specialities.

I have a disability. Can I dive with you?

SDI's Scubility program adapts training to a wide range of physical and cognitive conditions, and every situation is different, so rather than a blanket answer, we'd rather talk.

Do you teach technical diving?

Not at the moment. Certified technical divers can still join our boat dives, in groups of four at most. What we do now is get divers technical-ready: the buoyancy, trim, gas and equipment skills tech instructors expect on day one. When you're ready, we are happy to point you to the right people.

I haven't dived in years. Do I need to redo my certification?

No, your certification doesn't expire. What fades is comfort, and that comes back faster than you think. A refresher of a day or two (theory recap, skills in shallow water, a proper dive) and most divers are surprised how quickly it all returns. About the refresher

Where do the sessions actually happen?

In three places: Šibenik, our base and where the boat dives leave from, and Tisno and Brač, where labs and courses run with partner dive centres. If somewhere else suits you better, ask. Location is one of the things we can arrange. Where we dive

What happens if the weather is bad?

We move the date. Sessions are not cancellable, but bad weather is not your fault and not ours, so if conditions are unusable we agree a new date together. Your booking stays.
