Step by Step
Start your adventure by arriving at the meeting point at Onna Village, where you will present your electronic confirmation and fill in the liability waiver form. After changing on site, you will board the free shuttle which will drop you off at the Blue Cave entrance in 5 minutes.
Access to the water is from the shore, down a stone staircase into the turquoise water. Your instructor, with a ratio of 1:8 for snorkelling or 1:2 for diving, will give you a safety briefing and you will practice exercises in a shallow area where you will touch the bottom with your feet. Even first time divers can participate without fear of currents.
Once ready, you will enter the cave and swim through the impressive rock formations underwater, discovering the famous "blue effect" caused by the sunlight passing through the sea. Enjoy 40-50 min of exploration in a safe and controlled environment.
At the end, you'll return to the water point, where you can shower and change on the premises. With your gear packed up and your souvenirs stored, the tour concludes at Onna Village for you to continue your day.
