introduction to Learn to dive in Sardinia, Italy
Learn to dive in Sardinia, in a beautiful landscape and crystal clear water. Scuba diving in this perfect underwater world could be compared to taking a step on the moon, but much easier. Underwater you will feel light, with no gravity, and you will swim like a fish; you will be a part of the underwater marine environment and you will always have a great adventure. Just breathing underwater it is a great pleasure.

Equipment hire per day €15.
Speciality Course: Cavern Diver Between the many caves that open into the Orosei's gulf la Galleria (The Tunnel) and le Ostriche (Oyster cave) are the most interesting and spectacular.

The diving was very flexible and went at our pace. I'd go back again - I'm hoping to finish some more advanced diving courses there.

Our Diving Centre opened its doors in 1995 out of a love for the outdoors & a desire to do something positive and different for our native land.
Since then we have shared this passion with our guests encouraging them to behave responsibly and help preserve the environment. Our economic policy is based on rules of common sense. We direct travellers to apartments, "agriturismi" and hotels owned by local people and always advise our guests to use local shops, farm shops & restaurants. In cooperation with PADI, we organize an annual "Beach clean-up". We are also working with DAN (Diver's Alert Network), a non-profit medical and research organization associated with Duke University Medical Center on their campaign about the security of the divers in the water. Our environmental policy covers our action both on land and in the water. We recycle waste (organic, paper, plastic, glass and iron, aluminium, battery, medicine), are conscious of our water & energy usage (we have solar panels in our apartments), re-use paper, reduce plastic usage (e.g. water bottles) and share cars. In the water, we put all our efforts in to minimizing the negative impact of scuba diving using low emission engines, anchoring in the sand, using the equipment as long as possible (despite the temptation to buy the latest gear!), and by encouraging our guests to take courses in buoyancy. All our boats are non smoking (avoiding cigarette butts in the water, promoting good health) and we ask the staff not to smoke with our guests. Furthermore we ask our staff and clients to sign a Conduct Code which covers responsible diving ("look but don't touch", buoyancy control & equipment techniques to avoid damage to the sea bed & corals, "practice skills over sand and not the sensitive reef", "don't throw litter or exhale bubbles under rocks"). We also include not buying souvenirs/gifts from corals, shells or hard woods, recycling, water conservation, car sharing, reducing plastic & energy use and reusing paper. |
Tourism can be good and bad for destinations & local people. We carefully screen every holiday against our criteria for responsible travel. 'Look behind the brochure' to find how each holiday makes a difference (see left). We don't claim to be perfect - there is no global accreditation - but we've led the way since 2001 and screened 1000's of holidays. We invite every traveller to write a review about their experiences and responsible tourism. This valuable feedback is sent to the people who run the holidays. We keep a very close eye on it and take off holidays that don't live up to our standards. |
