Baptism of diving in the Island of Santa María 3 h

Carrying out a diving baptismis a blessing, doing it on Santa María Island is a privilege. This is one of the warmest coasts of the Azores archipelago, where a multitude of species coexist under temperatures that will make your baptism as cozy as possible.

You will have to learn to breathe underwater, compensate for the pressure that enters your body and, above all, move through the depths with heavy equipment. Despite its demands, what you will live during your baptism will be an experience you will never forget, comparable to flying, unnatural for human beings.

During 3 hours you will learn everything you need to be able to give your first wingbeats by yourself. The most satisfying thing about this experience, apart from becoming just another marine species for a few hours, is being able to see up close for the first time what the sea hides at a depth of 10 meters, which although it seems only a few meters, believe us that inside the sea they can mean a lot.

With luck, a cetacean or manta ray will come to visit you during the baptism, since these imposing animals live on the beaches of Vila de Porto as well as dozens of species of fish and birds.

Our experienced monitors will give you all the necessary materials such as neoprene and cylinders, so you only have to worry about enjoying your moment of entering the underwater world of Santa María >.

If you have already decided to start a new adventure as a diver, don't hesitate to come to the shores of this area of the eastern Atlantic, and surround yourself with the best scenery while you learn to move like a fish in water.
