During your stay on Mykonos you will be given many opportunities to have fun.

The island has a unique underwater treasure to explore so it is an ideal place for diving. You will see many ancient artifacts, rockery, many tapes of fish and other fauna at a radius of 30-40 meters.

Lessons are provided for beginners and for the most experienced. You could even get a world wide recognized diploma during holidays.
“Introductory Scuba” gives even beginners the chance to explore the magical underwater life 7 meters below the surface.  It is a magical experience.  There are many different packages you can choose from such as underwater photography, which varies in difficulty levels.
If you are scared of deep water then just take a mask and snorkel and enjoy the underwater treasures in a simple and easy way.
