This is a fully private guided dive, exclusively with your own group. No mixed groups and no fixed rush. We take our time and adjust the pace of the dive to your experience level, so you can relax and enjoy the underwater world.

We do shore dives at Tugboat or Caracas Bay. Tugboat is a famous dive site with a shallow sunken tugboat surrounded by coral, sponges, and colorful fish. Explore the wreck and the nearby reef, home to vibrant marine life.

Caracas Bay features a gently sloping reef, sandy patches, and abundant marine life. The calm bay has a local feel, good visibility, and occasional sea turtles.

As a small, family‑run dive center in Jan Thiel, personal attention, clear guidance, and a safe, enjoyable dive are our priority.

What to expect

At our dive center in Jan Thiel, we take certified divers on relaxed, private guided shore dives at Tugboat or Caracas Bay. We dive at an easy pace, fully adapted to your experience level, so you can truly enjoy the underwater world without pressure.

Before the dive, all participants complete the mandatory medical health declaration via the Divessi website or app. At the dive center, we prepare and check the equipment together and go through a clear dive briefing. We discuss the dive plan, conditions, and what you would like to see underwater.

From the shore, we enter the water calmly and start the dive once everything feels comfortable. The guided dive lasts about 30–60 minutes underwater.
At Tugboat, we explore the well-known shallow wreck and the surrounding reef, home to colorful fish, corals, and sponges. At Caracas Bay, you dive in a quiet local bay with coral formations, sandy areas, and plenty of marine life. Sea turtles are regularly spotted here.

All dives are private, only with your own group. This allows us to give full attention, keep the dive relaxed, and create a personal diving experience focused on enjoyment, safety, and fun.
