The school offers different options, from 1 to 10 exploration dives along the west coast of Basse-Terre, from Pointe-Noire to Bouillante. Depending on your level of certification and the spots, you can dive on your own or accompanied by a certified instructor from Les Heures Saines Plongée.

Mon mari a fait une plongée de révision-exploration. Les enfants ont fait des baptêmes. Tout le monde a trouvé que c'était absolument génial, qu'ils avaient la sensation de descendre dans un aquarium.
