I am disabled, walking with forearm crutches, and this excursion listed by our cruise line said I wouldn't be able to participate. I emailed Aqua Safari and Florian (the owner) directly and he said there would be no problem accommodating me.

The Aqua Safari helmet dive was a great experience. A unique experience of being at the bottom of the ocean while still being able to breathe normally and keep the head completely dry. Our small group were escorted by the owner/operator team of father and son and their small boat crew. After a short boat ride to the dive location,... More
