Scuba Diving Albufeira-Double Dive Trip

Recreational Diving

Two dive booking - smooth booking and check-in. Lots of staff - equipment was good as I had hired equipment. Boat is large and roomy - we didn’t do a weight check - one of the divers proceeded to have terrible bouyancy and ran through his air very quickly. We all ended coming up the line with the other dive groups. These things happen - but the weak diver should have been passed onto the team with more guides in my opinion for the second dive. A 30 minute dive at a depth of 16 to 18m dive, coming up on 110 bar of air is disappointing for me. (The experienced diver with me decided not to book a second days diving).

Open water SSI course

From the second we walked into the centre till we left was a great experience. The ladies manning the checkpoint in were friendly and full of life making us feel very welcome and even helped me fill in the forms since I had forgotten my glasses at the hotel. They then passed us on to Fernando who was just brilliant. His enthusiasm and personality made learning a breeze and very enjoyable. His dive knowledge was above and beyond and he made my 15 year old son and me become very confident as we went through the pool session learning the basics - again. We only did a trial in Tenerife 2 years before and compared to Fernando were left eating dust. Day 2 we had to connect all our equipment and test it, then haul it to the boat for the first 2 of 4 dives. All the crew on the boat were great from the captain to all the instructors on board. They relieved any nervousness of the newbies and ensured we were all fully informed about the destination, what to expect etc. Each trainer had 2 learners and we were taken to depth and had to again practice our life saving techniques and then we swam for about 30 minutes admiring absolutely beautiful scenes underwater. The same for the second dive and the 3rd and 4th dives the following day. My son and I are so pumped up and motivated by Fernando and all the crew that we can’t wait to practice these new skills back home and maybe even come back here next holiday to learn more. Thank you so much for such an awesome and amazing experience and would recommend that anyone wanting to start scuba diving to come here to Easydivers. Grant and Connor

Overall a very good diving center. More care in the water with inexperienced divers needed.

The booking, welcome, equipment, procedures all were excellent when outside water. In the water it was a different story. This was my first dive after the open water course, I informed of this the dive center and I were diving solo. On the 2 dives I was alone in the water 80% of the dive, unfortunately the visibility was only 2/3 meters and it was very easy to loose contact with other divers, but I thought it was strange. After the dive a fellow client diver told me that I was treated as an autonomous diver and in his +100 dives he never saw anything like this. But I didn’t felt uncomfortable during the dives, It was a boost on my confidence that I could do everything alone but I don’t think this should be like this. I will dive again it this dive center, hopefully for many years to come.

Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your detailed feedback and for highlighting the positive aspects of your experience with us, from the booking process to the equipment and overall organisation. We truly appreciate your trust in choosing Easydivers Portugal for your first dives after completing your Open Water course. We are, however, very sorry to read that you felt alone underwater during parts of the dives, especially considering the limited visibility conditions on the day. Safety, supervision and diver comfort are priorities for us, particularly with recently certified divers. Regarding the autonomous aspect you mentioned, our team may sometimes adapt buddy teams and supervision according to the perceived comfort, skills and confidence demonstrated by each diver during preparation and initial moments of the dive. That said, we fully understand your point of view and agree that clearer communication beforehand would have helped avoid any misunderstanding or unexpected feeling during the experience. We genuinely appreciate you bringing this to our attention, as feedback like yours helps us improve both our procedures and communication with future guests. We are also very happy to hear that despite the situation, the experience increased your confidence underwater and that you intend to dive with us again in the future. We look forward to welcoming you back to Easydivers Portugal for many more dives, hopefully with better visibility and even more enjoyable experiences underwater.
