Er hat uns super bertreut und alles sehr klar erklährt, wir waren sehr zufrieden und haben uns jederzeit wohl gefühlt. Es war ein tolles Erlebins, Danke. Michelle D'Sa15/10/2024 I had a fantastic experience at Scuba Turtles Dive Center in Marathopoli! For a first-time dive, this is the perfect spot to try. The dive center is well-maintained and conveniently located right across the street from the shore. Entry into the water is a simple step down over rocks into the sea, about 2 to 3 meters below the surface, so there’s no sediment kicked up during entry, making for excellent visibility throughout the dive. Andreias and Sylvia were extremely helpful and accommodating, ensuring you feel comfortable every step of the way. Their expertise and friendly demeanor made the entire experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend Scuba Turtles for anyone looking to try diving for the first time or seeking a great diving experience in Greece. CH14/10/2024 Ich habe in den vergangenen Tagen drei Tauchgänge mit den Scuba Turtles gehabt. Die Kommunikation im Vorfeld war hervorragend, Infos und Antworten unmittelbar und sehr freundlich! Das Tauchcenter vor Ort liegt direkt am Home Reef - ein idealer Einstieg. Das Equipment ist in Topzustand, die mehrsprachige Einweisung war präzise und hilfreich. Die getauchten Spots waren alle in der direkten Umgebung, sehr schön und besonders für Anfänger, Wiedereinsteiger und Fortgeschrittene geeignet. Insgesamt gesehen vermitteln einem die professionellen Inhaber Andreas und Silvia viel Spaß am Tauchen sowie ein tolles Lernumfeld und absolut sicheres Gefühl! Die Scuba Turtles kann ich jedem nur wärmstens ans Herz legen und uneingeschränkt empfehlen! Vielen Dank, es hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht mit Euch beiden! Ich komme ganz sicher zurück!
