First breaths underwater happen on a four-hour boat outing from Port de Sóller. You'll take two private dives with your instructor, with all equipment included, and you do not need any previous experience. The session is open from age 10.
Kit fitting on the quay comes before anyone boards. Your instructor talks through how the scuba equipment works at Port de Sóller harbour, answers questions on the waterfront, and walks you to the boat once the set feels familiar. The four-hour outing then leaves the harbour for two private dives, with no previous experience needed. You'll take the first descent at a pace that lets breathing from the regulator and moving slowly feel comfortable, and the instructor stays with you in the water.
A surface interval on the boat separates the two drops. The second private dive lets those first skills settle, still inside the same four-hour window, then the skipper turns back toward the horseshoe bay. After you rinse kit on the way in, you walk back to the marina street you started from. The session is open from age 10, and the instructor remains with you from the briefing through both dives.
Mallorca's northwest coast folds around a working harbour under the Tramuntana mountains. The meeting point is at Port de Sóller harbour, so you kit up beside the water rather than travelling to a separate beach.
The boat leaves this sheltered bay for coastal sites chosen for first-time divers. After you return, the tram and the town sit a short walk from the quay.
Previous diving experience is not needed. The session is open from age 10, and the instructor stays with you for both private dives.
Mention any medical conditions so your instructor can plan the briefing safely. Spanish law requires dive insurance; we can arrange a policy if you do not already hold one.
First-timers are as welcome on our boats as experienced divers, because this five-star PADI centre was built to take people into the Mediterranean from the very first session. For more than thirty years we have welcomed ocean lovers to our harbour base in Port de Sóller, on Mallorca's northwest coast.
Safety, small groups and care for the marine environment sit behind every outing. Skippers and instructors know the local reefs, caves and open water, kit is well maintained, and you'll feel the warm hospitality of a team that still loves sharing what lives under this coast. Private charters and tailored days are there when you want the boat and crew to yourselves.
Previous diving experience is not required. The instructor stays with you for both private dives and talks through the equipment on the quay before you leave the harbour.
The session is built for people who have never used scuba kit in the sea. Snorkelling beforehand is fine, but it is not something you need to have done.
The session is suitable from age 10. Younger guests do not join this boat outing from Port de Sóller.
Anyone aged 10 or over can join if they are ready to follow the instructor in the water for two private dives. Tell us ages so we can plan the kit for the day.
Full scuba equipment is included, along with the four-hour boat tour and your instructor. You still bring swimwear, a towel and a warm layer for the surface interval.
Tell us height and usual clothing size so we can plan the right wetsuit and BCD for the harbour.
The outing lasts four hours on the boat, with two private dives during that window. Plan to be at Port de Sóller harbour in time for the morning departure.
The exact meeting time is confirmed before the first morning if sea state is likely to shift the plan.
Meet at Port de Sóller harbour, beside the waterfront. You kit up on the waterfront, then walk to the boat after the briefing.
Allow a little extra time on arrival so the instructor can fit kit and talk through the plan before the skipper leaves.
Pack swimwear, a towel, sun protection, drinking water and a warm layer for the boat. Bring any medication you rely on as well.
Scuba kit stays at the harbour. The rental set is fitted before you walk to the boat and is used for both dives.
Spanish law requires dive insurance. We can arrange a policy if you do not already hold one, and it is simpler to sort that before the morning you dive.
Bring proof of cover if you already have it. The instructor will note it at check-in at Port de Sóller harbour.
Wind and swell can stop the boat. If the outing cannot run, the team will contact you and look at moving the session rather than forcing a poor pair of dives.
Keep your phone on the evening before. The mountain road is a long way to travel for a harbour that has already stood the boat down.
The day is a Discover Scuba Diving session with a PADI instructor. It is an introduction to scuba in the sea, with two private dives on the four-hour boat.
The instructor stays with you throughout. You leave with those first dives done, not with a longer training course attached.
