Today was our first experience with diving and it was normal.
First of all, I booked the diving baptism in TABARCA and we found that the baptism is done in a cove (nothing spectacular) half an hour by car from Santa Pola... (the grace of paying €119 was to go do it to Tabarca, otherwise there are cheaper places).
Days before they told us that the activity would last from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and from 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. and the reality is that it was from 9:15 a.m. to 1 p.m., taking into account the peak hour of travel from the center to the creek. The fact is that between what they explain to you and such, you are in the water for 1 hour at most.
The journey in the van, dirty, without air conditioning and with an incredible smell of tobacco.
The instructor forgot his towel and asked us for ours since he puts on the wetsuit "barely" and had to change with our towel...
At first I had problems getting the equipment and I was quite overwhelmed (until the point that I considered leaving the activity) because due to the weight of the equipment I could not stand up in the area of the beach where I was covered by the waist and I was on my knees, so the water literally reached my neck and without having barely any stability and having no idea how to breathe with the equipment... well the thing is that if it hadn't been for my boyfriend, I would have drowned, because the instructor didn't move...
In conclusion, would I repeat ? Well, I don't know, probably making sure they take me to an island or somewhere that I know is worth the money I pay. As an experience, well, a 5 but this is “to taste the colors” - via
