Cydive - Paphos & Coral Bay
We’ve known the team at Cydive for years. They’re a solid, reliable choice if you’re diving in Paphos or Coral Bay, especially if you’re newer to diving or travelling with family. We think they shine when it comes to instruction, offering everything up to PADI Instructor Development Courses, which tells you a lot about their dedication to good training. They run a smooth operation, which is exactly what you want when you’re on holiday. Our favourite thing about Cydive is their focus on making diving accessible and enjoyable. They’re not about pushing advanced dives if you’re not ready; it’s more about building confidence and having a good time. We’d suggest them if you’re bringing kids along for their first Discover Scuba Dive, or if you’re looking to get certified in a relaxed environment. They’ve been around for ages, over 33 years in Paphos, and that kind of longevity speaks volumes. You get a sense of that history when you’re there, a well-oiled machine that still feels personal. If you’re based in Coral Bay, their second shop there is super convenient. We’ve found their instructors patient and clear, something you really appreciate when you’re trying to master a new skill.
