What to expect

You're in just the right place if you fancy trying out scuba diving or making the most of your diving qualifications. Crete's warm waters and fascinating underwater world will leave you wanting more during one of these guided scuba dives or snorkelling – the choice is yours.

And Rethymnon's location on the north coast of Crete is the perfect place to explore under the waves. You'll be surrounded by dive spots that feature the likes of rocky reefs and a plethora of marine life, darting around stone formations. But what also makes Crete an ideal spot to don a mask, air tank and flippers is its clear and mild water.

You can choose a beginner's dive led by qualified instructors who'll talk you through every step so you'll confidently breathe beneath the waves. Alternatively, if you only want to dip your toes in the water, there's also a snorkelling trip available.
