All diving shops accept reservations directly from guests only.
From May to October, last-minute reservations are generally not possible with any diving shop. Most shops are fully booked at least two weeks in advance, and during July and August, reservations often fill up as early as one month ahead. 
Please note that our staff are not able to arrange diving or boat-snorkeling reservations during your stay.
