Scuba Diving Trip – 23 – 30 April 2024
Following on from our successful check out trip and new partnerships in Cyprus, we are delighted to be organising our first club and training trip for 2024!
Cyprus provides an ideal location for club diving as well as training. There’s something for everyone.
Dive sites offer an amazing variety of scenic reef dives, stunning wall dives, unique cavern dives and of course, wonderful wreck dives – including the magnificent Zenobia (one of the top 5 wrecks in the world)!
In addition, it’s a perfect holiday for non-diving companions too. All of the hotels we use have their own pools and are within walking distance of beautiful beaches and shopping, with a host of different activities, restaurants, coffee shops and much more. You can choose from anything from adrenaline-infused water sports or a relaxing beach-front massage… whatever takes your fancy!

Flights & Transfers
Flights and airport transfers are not included in the price. You will need to book your own flights to/from Larnaca. We recommend you do this as early as possible.
Transfers will be arranged by our local partner for an additional fee. As transfer times to/from Larnaca is around 45 minutes, it really helps if we can co-ordinate flights so that everyone arrives together. This way, transfer costs can be shared and logistics are much easier for all.
We have identified two flight schedules that work best for this itinerary and we kindly request you to book onto one of these.
- Outbound: EasyJet Gatwick to Larnaca (23 April 2024, 15:30), EasyJet Inbound: Larnaca to Gatwick (30 April, 2024, 22:55)
- Outbound: EasyJet Luton to Larnaca (23 April 2024, 12:45), EasyJet Inbound: Larnaca to Luton (30 April, 2024, 20:10)
Currently (14th October 2023) prices for the above are around £115 – £130 return. This will likely increase so you are encouraged to book early!
Please note that if you choose to book a different flight, you will have no-one to share costs with, so will need to pay for private transfers.
What are you waiting for – let’s go to Cyprus!
