5.00From start to finish the Latchi Watersports team were incredibly helpful, thorough and made our time extremely fun with no stress. A special mention to our brilliant instructor Marta who made it an experience we will never forget. We are very much looking forward to coming back to do some more fun dives here in the near future.
Excellent and very professional service.

5.00I visited Latchi to arrange a dive with them for both myself and my cousin. I'm a qualified diver and my cousin wanted to do DSD course,( discover scuba diving) . I had various correspondence with Latchi Watersports to ascertain if they could meet my needs due to my disability. I have 2 arthritic hips and find steps very difficult to climb. All of the team I spoke to said that they were positive that could cater for my needs. I met JD and discussed a plan which we agreed on.We scheduled the dive for15/10/25. I managed to complete my dive and my cousin,excuse the pun, took to it like a fish to water. All the team were excellent and very professional. Thea,Holly and JD are the people I had the most dealings with but all the other people involved were equally as excellent and professional. I hope I remembered all the names. So Sam, Matthaeus (?) Miahel (?) and Chris and the rest of the team sincerest thanks. If I've missed anyone else sorry my sentiment extends to them all.We'll both see you tomorrow for our next one.
Brilliant experience for first timers.

5.00Our family of 5 adults pvisited Latchi water sport centre for the discover scuba diving experience. We had a great afternoon. It was only us on the trip so we had our own private little trip out to the blue lagoon. The staff were professional and we all felt completely safe at all times. We completed a 50 minute dive at a depth of roughly 6 metres after our skills training around the blue lagoon. Didn’t see any turtles or dolphins but plenty of fish. It’s a busy area so I imagine experienced divers would be diving at much more remote locations with plenty to see. But as a first dive it was a great experience for us as a family. They offer many other activities as well so well worth a visit.
Really patient staff, great fun!

5.00Promised my two older teens we’d go Scuba Diving on our hols this year. Chose the Discover Scuba Diving for the three of us (a 19yr old, 17yr old and me 40+ 🤣) and the husband can’t do any diving because of a health condition but was allowed to join us on the boat for a small fee. Clare was fab at explaining everything and was super patient when my mask kept on filling with water while also trying to teach the other two who were under the water! Mask changed and adventures begin, taught a few key skills and off for a swim under the water. Great experience and all the team seem to work like a family which is great to see. Loads of support to learn and a very professional and friendly bunch! Thanks guys! X
Wonderful first dive!

5.00I felt very lucky that I chose this for my very first dive. Everyone from the Latchi Watersport Centre was so friendly and helpful: David sent emails explaining the delay due to weather and made sure the safety and availability; the three divemasters (Same, DJ, and Howie) were also wonderful. Very patient with rookie like me. I was very clumsy and but still managed to have a little happy trip underwater. Thank you very much for such lovely day!
Amazing!!!

5.00We had a great day at the blue lagoon. Our son did a private discover scuba diving with Dave while we snorkeled in the lagoon. All of the staff were very knowledgeable and helpful. Our son had a great experience and plans to pursue certification in scuba. Highly recommend Latchi Watersports, you won’t be disappointed!
Fantastic experience

3.00Sorry to penalize the scores, I wish I could have given much more but at the dives at Zenobia I was disappointed, very disappointed, by the boat and boat organization in Larnaka. Filthy dirty boat with indecent baths. You don't do that! The latchi diving was beautiful the prepared and helpful staff with perfect boats. Not the one at Zenobia!! At that cost the Boat Service must be flawless. I'm really sorry.
