Diving in Noronha for beginners with a local guide

3 hours

Easy

Discover the underwater world of Noronha even if you've never scuba dived. A guided dive of up to 12 meters, with all the equipment included and an instructor who accompanies you every second.

🌊 Your first time under the sea, with everything figured out

  • You don't need experience, or special courage. Just curiosity and a desire to discover what it's like to float, breathe and look at a world that was always there, waiting for you.

    This baptism of diving in Noronha is simple, accompanied and profoundly transformative. Ideal for those who never imagined doing it... and end up wanting to repeat.

    It all starts on the boat. The equipment is ready, the sea is calm, and an instructor who is with you from the start. It guides you step by step, accompanies you in every gesture. And when it's time to dive in, everything is natural: the calm, the silence, the surprise.



🎯 What makes this baptism an experience that is not forgotten:

  • 🤿 Real immersion, without haste and without fear
    You will spend up to 30 minutes underwater, at a maximum depth of 12 meters, always accompanied by a professional who never separates himself from you. You breathe, you float, you look... and everything is fine.
  • 🐠 A universe suspended in calm
    Corals that shine like living lanterns, curious fish that swim without fear, turtles that float slowly, stripes that glide, and - if you're lucky - a small shark that passes like a whisper. Everything happens in an emotional silence.
  • 📸 An image that you feel more than you see
    You can bring your underwater camera or hire a professional photographer. But the real memory isn't the photo: it's the feeling of having been on another planet... and coming back different.
  • 🧘‍♂️ Suitable even without experience
    You don't need to have experience. The team supports you, the instructor takes care of you and you just let yourself go. Everything is designed to make you feel safe, comfortable and accompanied from the start.
  • 🌅 Choose how you want to live it
    There are morning and afternoon departures. You decide if you prefer to wake up underwater... or end the day floating among golden reflections.
  • ⭐ Rated 5 stars by those who cheered
    Many describe it as “the most transformative moment of the trip” or “something I didn't know I needed until I experienced it”.


“I didn't know that silence could be so emotional. Being down there changed me inside.” — Lucas, Chile
