So before you dive in Cyprus(if you have not dived outside the UK) you need to reset what you think low visibility is. When the guys at Cydive tell you visibility is going to be quite poor, they still mean about 15 metres( most of our dives we had 20+ metres). So prepare for AMAZING visibility.
Now the staff at Cydive. These guys are so friendly and knowledgeable. They bend over backwards for you, they will give you advice when you need it. If you are not sure of your weights, then tell them and they will help you get the best weighting. They will help you fill your logbook in, they will sign and stamp it too). There is also a pretty well stocked shop on site.
I dived 6 times with the team, Mick, Sophie, Sausage and Pavlos, and I have to say I felt so comfortable and safe with them. I am a fairly newly qualified diver(BSAC Sport diver) and they were brilliant. We dived the Costandis, Lady Thetis, Amphorae caves, Wreck of Laboe and of course the mighty mighty Zenobia. I would dive with these guys any day of the week, at a moments notice.
I will definitely be diving with Cydive again.
Now before you come you should know the water(in September) is really warm. Even 30m down my computer registered 27C. So a 3mm is perfect. You won't need gloves or a hood. But you will definitely need loads and loads of sun cream, because there ain't much shade here. The water here is really salty too. So maybe bring a towel to clean yourself off between dives.
But the main thing to know here is to prepare for some of the best diving you will experience. I 100% cannot wait to come back. Don't forget your Gopro or dive camera as it will be filled with breath taking scenery. - via
