    Nice little diving center. Peaceful dives in small groups. Enthusiastic and experienced diving guide Anne took us to great diving sites. He knew the sites well and was able to show things that I would not have found myself, e.g. seahorses and moray eels. Rental equipment in good condition. As a rule, the dives were made a short car ride from the beach. We did the wreck diving by boat. Overall a good experience, I highly recommend the place.

    My wife an I decided to try scuba diving for the first time in our lives on Cyprus and it was worth it! It has been the most memorable, vivid and precious moment of our vacation there. Thanks to amazing instructor Anne we managed to get properly introduced for all the basics and to have enjoyable dive with stunning photos. Despite during the dive I experienced some problems with my ear, Anne calmed me down and helped to overcome the issue. It was an incredible experience to swim with fishes and to become a fish for an hour. My wife and I fell in love with diving and we hope to become certified divers one day. Many thanks to Poseidon Dive Centre in Protaras and Anne specifically! :)

    My husband and I had the most incredible first ever diving experience with Valentine. Her calm manner made everything so smooth and easy and she explained everything wonderfully. We felt super comfortable and it was an unforgettable experience!! Would recommend to anyone!

    I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Having never dived before, I had the BEST time on a Discover Scuba Diving course. Gabriel is an absolute star, and I felt completely safe with him - you can tell he adores what he does. I chose the 9am dive, and there was no one else around, but plenty of marine life - we spent approximately 35 minutes underwater. The photos and videos Gabriel took were an added bonus, and a perfect souvenir :). If you're considering trying scuba diving, do it with Poseidon - you won't regret it.

    We did the 3 day open water course, having never dived before the instructors Gabriel and Valentine made us feel so safe and reassured. They were fantastic teachers, passionate about sharing their knowledge and caring for the marine life. I would highly recommend to beginners and more experienced divers.

    Great experience and great people helping with it. Gabriel picked us up under the hotel's doors, talks very naturally and kind. Very helpful with any questions, even not about diving. They told us they wanted to create a place where they would feel comfortable themselves and it's really going well - they are taking small groups Gabriel was with 1 participant (cheers for you Jan :D ) and me and my fiance was with Valentina. Both guides are really nice and checks if you feel comfortable at any moment. They insists on talking about even minor issues so nothing would disturb you under water. Lovely team. At the end of dive you can drink tea or coffee with them, talk for a while about everything while taking a rest and get transport back to hotel. *Extras - They speak french!

    Great diving center / school. Amazing instructors very thorough, real commitment to proper dive teaching. You'll be hard pressed to find a better place to learn how to dive.

    Great Diving experience, top equipment and very professional service! We did 2 dives with Kiron and both were really great and suited our level, since we are PADI certified but still beginners. We even did the caves which are truly awesome and we felt very safe all the time. Both Kiron and Tina were very nice and friendly! Would definitely dive with them again, we looked at other dive schools- even did one dive with another one - but Poseidon were the best in our opinion.

    Awesome, fantastic diving experience with Poseidon. The instructors were amazing, taking personalized care of the guest divers. I did diving the Zenobia, the majestic cargo ship, one of the best wreck diving of the world. Also did diving the caves and few other sites. I'll always recommend Poseidon diving centre.

    Honestly one if the best experiences ever! Gab the instructor was super attentive and made sure my friend and I felt safe during our first diving experience. I also loved that they take small groups at a time so we felt very well taken care of and not afraid to ask questions or for help during the scary parts. I couldn’t recommend this place more so thank you guys for making our trip to Cyprus unforgettable!!

    I cannot recommend Poseidon enough, we actually stayed beyond Ayia Napa in Makronissos, I initially made an enquiry with Poseidon and Gabriel was quick to respond more than happy to cater for our requirements, in fact he couldn’t do enough to help. On meeting Gabriel he became Gab and his attention and focus on our little boy and the tuition he provided through his Junior Open Water was amazing, he allowed us to Dive with them throughout our Sons Dives so we could watch his progress and even better was watching the relationship between Gab and our Son blossom as they became friends not just tutor and pupil. Our son was just 11 at the time of doing this course and Diving is a sport that needs to be done safely and with Poseidon we were 100% happy. If you are reading this with a young student Gab is your man if you’re reading this simply looking for a great Dive School Poseidon is that School. Keep it up Gab & Valentine see you next time 😀😀😀

    This for me was my first time scuba diving and it was definitely the best choice of company to go with! The instructors were all lovely and friendly ours kindly picked me and my partner up right from our hotel and dropped us off afterwards, he explained everything to us and ensured we were comfortable and understood his instructions whilst constantly checking on us throughout! The pricing of this excursion was perfectly priced for a brilliant experience and pictures included. What we found important and helped our experience the most was the 1-1 approach the instructors have with the groups they take allowing for full support and guidance throughout! Perfect day out :)

    One of the best diving centers I’ve visited. Professional and warm service instead of just business. Thank you Tina, Kiron and Marion for an amazing week of safe and beautiful diving!

  • 5/5 NIK K. 1 year ago on Google
    Myself and my 14 Yr old son did a beginners dive with Mario, we had a great time, a great instructor and we saw some amazing sea life! Tina made us so very welcome we will definitely go back!

    I visited these lovely people on my 30 birthday as present from my family back home. I visited with my partner who had never dived before and I hadn’t in a long time. There really was no need to be nervous, there whole team made me feel at ease and we loved the whole experience! Our guide was amazing and the lady at the desk was so lovely she even gave me a little bottle of Prosecco 💕 We will be back! Thankyou again! Will & Bill X

    We had an amazing time diving with Poseidon! Tina was fantastic, explained everything very clearly and put a first time diver's mind at ease. The experience was everything we wanted, would highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Adrian D. 10 months ago on Google
    First of all, we went there as a beginner couple. No experience in diving, snorkeling and even in swimming(me). We had the pleasure to meet Valentina, a very calm and relaxed person that showed us from the begining that she loves what she is doing. She walked us slowly through everything we will do during this experience and responded every questions we had. She tried to make us as comfortable as possible in the water and even though only one of us was capable of diving she made sure all the time that the second person is always safe. Thanks Valentina for some unforgettable moments and experience. If we return to Cyprus in the future we will repeat the experience. Also, I'm sorry that I tried to steal the spotlight from the fish. It won't happen again :)

    Such a nice experience ! Me and my boyfriend went without any previous experience and enjoyed it so much! The staff were amazing, very helpful, I got all help needed, they are very patient and I can not wait to come back again! We even saw turtles !

    Me and my two daughters have never done diving before. Kieran went through everything we needed to know and then reassured we knew everything before we went diving. Once we were under the water, it took 5-10 minutes to get the hang of things, then we were off for a great experience. t’s amazing you can breathe under water and experience what is really under the sea- it’s like living in another world! We were closely watched by our diving instructor, Kieran is also very patient and well explained. As well as this, Kieran took lots of pictures for us to look back on! Very great price for the activity, we will definitely return to this diving school. Thank you Kieran, amazing instructor!

  • 5/5 Sam R. 1 year ago on Google
    Genuinely faultless scuba diving experience! Tina was so welcoming and Kiron was the perfect instructor. Everything was explained thoroughly both before and during the dive. Kiron was so knowledgeable, settled our nerves and made the dive fun for all of us while also taking great pictures. We could not have asked for a better experience. When we finished, Tina took the time to make us tea/coffee and discuss the dive with us while showing us all the great pictures. If I’m ever back in Cyprus I will 100% be returning! 10/10 absolute highlight of my holiday. Thank you so much Tina and Kiron 🙏🏻

    The owners are very friendly, professional and will offer you an awesome experience. We look forward to coming back to Cyprus and diving with them again.

    My first dive in the sea after getting my certificate in a lake and I was a little apprehensive but Tina helped helped me feel calm and helped me remember things I had forgotten. From being picked up to being dropped back off to the villa the whole experience was excellent and the dive was brilliant and only makes me want to carry on diving. So thank you and I will definitely be back.

    Brilliant dive this morning with Gabriel and Valentina, Thankyou! There were 3 of us, including my 9 year old son and my Mum in her 70s, first dive for all of us. The instructors were patient, calm and reassuring. Gabriel helped my son through a last second panic and now he’s desperate to go again! Looks like we’ll see you next year when my son turns ten so we can go even further

    Me and my son (12 years old) was trained by Gabriel for the Scuba diving open water license. I’d like really to recommend this place as something extra with a personal touch. Gabriel is a great coach, professional and warm at hart, both me and my son gained a trust quickly for him, all of the exercises (5 dives over three days). To mention a few things that we appreciated, 1) the training was handled effecient -to make the most of our dives, 2) gentle and with positive feedback so my son felt very relaxed, encouraged and proud of his accomplishments, 3) super clear instructions, no need to surface when we did the dives for further explanations, all clarifications done under water in a clear and positive manner. We also appreciate the variation of divingspots to make the most of the experience. If we do an advanced training session, we will definitely come back to Poseidon and Gabriel💫.

    We completed both our Open Water and Advanced with Val and Gab at Poseidon Dive Centre and we had an absolutely great time! They both took the time to carefully explain everything, they addressed all our concerns and worries if we had any, and more than anything, they allowed us to have a super duper fun and relaxed time under water - the perfect atmosphere for scuba diving! We would definitely choose them again!
