Mallorca PRIVATE Reservation*Scuba dive + photo/video

The most appealing part of this Mallorca experience is its small size: one instructor for two people. Alex or Jose starts you from shore, helps you adjust to breathing underwater at about 1 meter, and only goes deeper when you feel ready. The maximum depth is 6 meters, making this a gentle first introduction rather than a demanding expedition.

I like the steady, personal instruction and the included GoPro 10 photos and videos. You also get a real hour in the water, with roughly 45 to 50 minutes spent underwater. The main catch is price clarity: the advertised group rate is not the full cost, since equipment, insurance, and the guide fee require an additional charge of about €100 to €110 per person.

Key points to know before booking

This is a strong match for you if you:

• Have never used scuba equipment before
• Feel nervous about joining a large group
• Want a short activity near Palma
• Prefer patient, close instruction
• Want photos and videos without handling a camera
• Are curious about local marine life but do not need great depth
• Are traveling as a couple or with one friend

It is less suitable if you want a certification course, a long offshore trip, or a technically challenging site. The 6-meter limit and shore-based start are deliberate features for beginners, not shortcomings for the right audience.

It may also be a poor fit if you need a fully wheelchair-accessible format or detailed transport assistance, since no accessibility information is provided. In that case, contact the operator before booking rather than guessing.

What to bring and what to confirm

The supplied information confirms that equipment is provided as part of the additional package fee. It does not give a full packing list, so you should ask what clothing, towels, footwear, and personal items are needed before arrival.

Confirm these points when booking:

• The exact equipment and insurance fee per person
• Whether the final charge is €100 or €110
• How the photos and videos will be delivered
• The exact shore location for the session
• Any medical questions raised by the required forms
• The transport arrangement from Bendinat to the water

These questions are not fussing over small details. The unclear extra fee is the one area that could surprise you, and the photo delivery method matters if the images are a main reason for booking.

Should you book this private scuba session?

I would choose this experience if you want a gentle, personal introduction to scuba in Mallorca. Its best features are the two-person maximum, the shallow shore start, the close help from Alex or Jose, and the included GoPro record of your time underwater.

Book it with clear expectations. You are paying for a beginner session, not certification or a deep sea expedition. Check the true per-person cost, leave 12 hours before any flight, read the medical forms, and allow extra time around the two-hour schedule.

If you want to find out whether underwater breathing is for you, this private format gives you a sensible way to try. If you already have extensive scuba experience, choose a more advanced outing instead.
