Batismos de Mergulho

The pool baptism at JUSTDIVE is the lowest-friction entry point into scuba diving they offer — two hours in a controlled environment, with no open water and no prior experience required. The session opens with a short theory introduction covering the absolute basics: equipment function, how pressure affects the body, and the hand signals used underwater. From there you get in the water.

The pool portion mixes practical exercises with games, which keeps the session from feeling like a test. An instructor is in the water with you throughout. The pacing is deliberately unhurried — JUSTDIVE describes their courses as adapted to each person's learning rhythm, and that applies here more than anywhere else since it's often someone's first time with a tank on their back.

All equipment is included in the price, so you arrive and everything is waiting: BCD, regulator, wetsuit, mask, fins. Personal accident insurance is also covered. Photographs of the session are included, which is a detail that matters when it's someone's first dive and they want to document it.

Pricing runs on a group scale: €60 for a solo session, €50 per person for two, and €40 per person for groups of three or more. That makes it a reasonable group activity. The minimum age is 8, making it accessible to older children who can follow basic instructions and are comfortable in water. No swimming test is required beyond being able to swim.
