Location
Dive-site “Amphitheatre” is situated a little bit to the east of the sunken shipwreck “Yatush”. Descent here is quite sharp and is almost perpendicular to the water surface that is why it is difficult to navigate under water. It is the reason why we advise you to use a service of a dive-guide or a help of a person, who really knows this route if it is your first time on the dive-site.
Diver’s requirements
Amphitheatre lays down at the depth of 45 meters. It also the maximum diving depth. That is why dive-site “Amphitheatre” is available only to experienced divers that have to meet the following requirements:
- Certification. As the depth of diving is 45 meters, a Deep Dive certificate (deepwater diving) and higher is obligatory to any diver. You can finish Deep Dive course and get a certificate in our diving center.
- Having an eligible diving insurance is also a compulsory condition. If you had your last dive less than six month ago, which is proven in your log-book, than you are ok. Otherwise you will have to finish a Refresh Dive course (also called Check-dive) to demonstrate your skills to the instructor.
- Equipment for deep water scuba diving. If you don’t have the equipment for deep water diving, you can always buy it or rent it in the shop of our diving center.
