Poseidon Diving Charters

Located in the Marina de Lagos, Poseidon Diving Charters offers a highly specialised approach to diving in the Algarve. Rather than operating large, crowded dive boats, this service functions as a private concierge, providing a dedicated vessel for your group. This ensures that your itinerary is dictated by your preferences and the local conditions rather than a group schedule.

The operation is built around the Poseidon X, a 25-foot classic cruiser designed to provide comfort and exclusivity. It is an ideal setup for divers who want to focus on the underwater environment without the distractions of a larger passenger manifest.

The team consists of two professional instructors, ensuring a high level of attention for every guest. They maintain a strict ratio of maximum four divers per guide, which allows for a much more personalised approach to navigation and buoyancy control.

All communication and dive direction is conducted in English. The service is designed to be effortless, with the crew managing everything from equipment handling to the preparation of premium meals on board.

The Poseidon X is a 25-foot classic cruiser specifically optimised for small-group exclusivity. It features a spacious interior, including a cabin and a lounge area, providing a comfortable base between dives. The vessel is equipped with full navigation systems and a reinforced sea-level platform with both a swimming ladder and a dedicated diving ladder.

On board, you will find a large sunbathing area for four people and a freshwater shower to rinse off after your dives. For logistics, the boat is fitted with dedicated racks for the secure transport of cylinders. The service includes a signature lunch buffet featuring fresh charcuterie, cheeses, artisanal spreads, and seasonal fruits, alongside refreshments.

The centre provides high-end diving equipment for all guests. For those requiring exposure protection, they maintain a partnership with Waterproof Sweden to provide high-performance wetsuits.

Safety is a priority on board, with oxygen for emergency use always available. The boat is also equipped with dedicated racks to ensure cylinders are handled and transported securely.
