• 5Unforgettable First Dive & Amazing Open Water Experience!

  I had the most incredible experience with Dive Greece, honestly couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to scuba diving. This was my very first dive, and Emilios made all the difference. He is an exceptionally professional, patient, and reassuring instructor who immediately put me at ease. He explained everything clearly, checked in regularly, and made sure I felt safe and confident every step of the way. A big thank you as well to Dive Master Alex, who was incredibly supportive throughout the experience. He helped me a lot with the learning process, offering guidance, encouragement, and making sure I was comfortable both in and out of the water. Having both of them there made everything feel even more smooth and enjoyable. The dive itself was absolutely breathtaking—crystal-clear waters, stunning underwater scenery, and such a peaceful, almost surreal atmosphere. It completely exceeded my expectations and left me wanting more from the moment I surfaced. What really stood out was the team’s passion, professionalism, and attention to detail. You can tell they genuinely care about giving people the best possible experience, whether it’s your first dive or you’re progressing further. Thanks to their excellent guidance, I was able to complete my Open Water certification in just 3 days, which was an amazing achievement for me and a testament to how well they teach and support their students. I was so inspired by the experience that I’m already looking forward to continuing my diving journey with them. Highly, highly recommend Dive Greece to anyone considering diving, especially if it’s your first time. You’ll be in the best hands!

• 5Wonderful experience with emilios being a great teacher

  Emilios was amazing, the scuba experience alone was magical but he made the adventure a perfect one, he was so patient with us as we were a little nervous, and taught us everything we needed to know. Would highly recommend to anyone thinking to book

  Emilios was a great instructor for us 2 beginners, made everything very simple and clear and took us around a bay to see the marine life up close. Would recommend for anyone wanting to try scuba diving for the first time and is in the local area

• 5If you are thinking about it, do it!

  Emilios was a fantastic instructor, he had us in the water in no time. His tuition was calm and collected and put everyone at ease in minutes. No one had ever scuba dived before but in minutes we were loving every second. If you have ever thought about it, book now you won't regret it.

• 5Amazing Experience! Book it!

  This was amazing! Emilios and his Dive Master were so reassuring and made the experience so memorable. We started with learning about the equipment on land, then doing drills in shallow water, and then we went on the dive. We saw some incredible marine life - it was breathtaking. They also picked me up and dropped me off to my hotel which was a nice touch. Highly recommend.

• 5Brilliant diving in a beautiful part of Greece

  As our first dive after qualifying in the UK we found Emilios to be very knowledgeable, professional and reassuring. We did two dives, all equipment was taken care of, Emilios guided us and pointed out things of interest like octopuses. Swimming through an underwater cavern was a real highlight. Emilios also took lots of photos which he’s sent to us. Best day of the holiday by far - thanks Emilios!

About Halkidiki

Halkidiki is a three-pronged peninsula in northern Greece, with pine-backed beaches, ancient sites and the monastic community of Mount Athos.

Halkidiki reaches into the Aegean south-east of Thessaloniki like a hand with three fingers: Kassandra, Sithonia and, furthest east, the narrow peninsula of Mount Athos. Kassandra has lively beach resorts, Sithonia is wilder, with pine forests running down to coves of clear water and small fishing villages, and Mount Athos is a self-governing monastic community whose twenty monasteries can be seen from boats offshore.
