3.Scuba diving baptism

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 37 reviews · 2 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $118.63

Try a small-group scuba baptism near Saint-Raphaël with one-on-one coaching, a 6m max swim, and a certificate, plus onboard transport.

“Beautiful scenery, both above and under water. Each got the opportunity to hold an underwater creature - a starfish and an urchin. Johann, our English-speaking instructor was clear, informative and nice. The sun was strong out on the water and not much cover on the boat, so wear sunscreen. We were the only two English-speakers on the boat among all French speakers. Unfortunately this meant we missed out on some of the chat and a few instructions during the trip. Although safety instructions were clear throughout.”
