We tried the "discover scuba diving" course for the first time ever. The instructor was incredibly supportive throughout the course, let alone a funny and easygoing guy. They made us feel 100% safe and we truly enjoyed this experience. There is a small reef in Panormos Bay which we visited during our approx 45 minute dive and we were lucky enough to see plenty of local fish. I totally recommend taking course for beginners with skopelos dive center.

I had an amazing experience diving with the team of Skopelos Dive Center. They are very professional in their work. I felt very safe underwater. The dive center offers not only regular dives in Skopelos and Alonissos but also dives in shipwrecks (Chistophoros in Skopelos and Peristera in Alonissos), which I would highly recommend ,since for any dive lover visiting Greece, this is a unique diving opportunity.

Dear traveler,
Thank you for your kind words about your IKION Diving Center experience.
We are happy to hear that you enjoyed our dives in the shipwrecks of Christoforos and Peristera. They are truly unique places and we fully very lucky to have two dive centers right next to both locations, in Steni Vala Bay in Alonissos and Panormos Bay in Skopelos.
We appreciate your recommendation and hope to see you again!

I am an experienced diver and my girlfriend and I dived with Tasos to get her Advanced Open Water certification before we went to dive the Peristera wreck on Alonissos. Tasos made a standard diving course really fun. He looked for ways to make the course requirements fit the seascape, and managed to put a different angle onto the training dives to make them more interesting, whilst satisfying all the requirements.
Everything was relaxed, but he always made sure all the safety aspects of diving were covered, above and below the surface.
Highly recommend this operation and will dive with them again next visit

I highly recommend this diving centre, nice spots & awesome team... even at the end of the season, willing to make your experience unforgettable.
+ professional team, will make you feel safe at any level and improve your diving skills
+ very organized, compared to some places where there is not even a planning ;) ahem
+ the diving school equipment is well maintained and of great quality, reliable (I used my own but would go without a doutb for theirs)
+ dive briefings straight to the point (always appreciated)
+ The four spots I had the chance to dive were each interesting on their own, and I believe I have yet much more to see!
Long story short, I'll be back. And you, my fellow diver, should go right now!

Excellent diving center! Very professional! Very good diving equipment. Great dives, top Christoforos wreck! Great team! They take photos of the underwater dives and send them to you, so nice. The center is in a hotel so it is possible to snack and drink something between dives. Super interesting prices, and partnership with the Alonissos diving center, therefore great for those who dive and want to do several Sporades islands (package of 5 or 10 dives between the 2 diving centers possible, therefore great).

Excellent service. I dived with the team at Panormous. They safely accommodate divers of all abilities. Very helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly staff. I did six boat dives with them, without any duplication, and a mix of wreck, reef, wall offered. I did take my own gear, but there was a good range of equipment to hire if need be. Rates good.
I understand that they will be merging with Ikion Divers on Alonissos in the near future, so I look forward to a dual centre trip, possibly in 2022.

The experience was amazing! It was my first attempt and it went smoother than I could imagine! After getting used to breathing through the mouth which was a mouthful (pun intended 😉), the sensation was great and the view even better, the colors, the fish.. we even saw an octopus!! And also, the instructors were very professional, very thorough during the briefing and both patient and alert during the dive lesson, which made me feel very secure.
I'll gladly try another course the next time I'll be there!

Did the Open Water Diver Course there. I was the only student at that time, so I had a very intense teaching and supervision. Louis is a a great teacher and instructor. Overall, all the people at the dive center were very down-to-earth and friendly. Immediately felt like family, diving with these folks.
