What a wonderful experience to cruise underwater by 3 meters depth on board of its own twin submarine, and thus in full safety! This unique submarine in the world, called "Sub Scooter" reminds us of either a James Bond movie or the famous cartoon of Tintin and Milou.
After being equipped with a diving suit, you will have a brief of 15 minutes about the easy control of the sub scooter and the safety guidelines to be observed.
The riders sit one behind the other as on a scooter, with their head covered by a transparent dome providing a panoramic view of the reef and all the important air to breathe naturally, without the need of a regulator in the mouth.
