Cartagena Beginners Scuba Diving Lesson

Between 6:30 and 7 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel and head to Blanca Baru Beach to start our beginner scuba diving lesson in Cartagena.

We'll begin by discussing some theory so you can learn how to move underwater before hopping on a boat that'll take us to our diving area.

Time to dive! We'll spend 35 minutes scuba diving in the Caribbean Sea while keeping our eyes peeled for lobsters and turtles. As we swim, we'll spot shoals of colourful tropical fish swimming among the rocks and corals.

Afterwards, we'll get back on the boat and head to Tranquila Beach. We'll have a rich breakfast at this paradisiacal beach while relaxing on the sand and taking a dip before lunch. Our lunch will consist of a main course of your choice between mojarra fish, chicken breast, pork or a vegetarian option accompanied by salads and a drink.

It'll then be time to take you to your hotel in Cartagena, where we'll arrive at 3 pm.
