What to expect

Beginners can choose a pool introduction or a structured scuba course. Certified divers have separate guided outings, with shore and boat options around the western Algarve. The operator asks divers for certification and a health declaration; someone without a diving qualification should select the introductory programme rather than an ordinary certified-diver trip.

Kayak Centre Lagos works with the dive centre on coastal kayak-and-snorkelling outings from Praia da Luz. Equipment is supplied for the combined activity, and advance reservations are required. The operator also lists a separate night-snorkelling experience for swimmers who already have snorkelling experience. The dive centre and cooperating kayak programme share the Luz Bay Club contact base, with the paddle outing meeting at Praia da Luz.
