Ibiza is a paradise for diving. Its visibility is exceptional, with an average of 30 meters, partly thanks to the Poseidonia meadows that renew the oxygen in the sea, ensuring one of the clearest waters in the Mediterranean. In addition, the water temperature is always between 14 ºC in winter and 26 ºC in summer, which allows diving all year round. Come to Nautica Ereso and equip yourself from head to toe for your safe dives.

Cressi and Mares are the two most prestigious brands in the diving world. Cressi has been manufacturing high-end materials of the best quality since 1946, to make diving a safe and unforgettable practice. Mares was created by Ludovico Mares, and was the first company in 1973 to manufacture fins of two materials, creating a technopolymer blade of its own manufacture and a soother molded in rubber. Two reference brands in the world of diving, which star in our diving section.

This is the basic material you need for safe practice.

Wetsuits.

Necessary for good thermal insulation and to be able to dive at any time of the year, as the body loses heat much faster in water than in air (up to 25 times faster). An excessively low body temperature in the water can be dangerous, so good protection is key. At Ereso we have Cressi and Mares wetsuits in different thicknesses (from 2mm to 7mm).

Diving masks

Egidio and Nanni Cressi began making their own diving masks and spearguns so they could dive close to home. By 1946, their designs and products had become so popular that they founded the Cressi company in Genoa, Italy. Since 1952 when they created the famous Pinochio mask, Cressi has been a reference in innovation and materials in diving masks, news that we receive punctually in Ereso.

Vest

Your BCD is a fundamental piece of your equipment, because besides being the union of the rest of the components, your safety and comfort underwater depend to a great extent on it.

 

Fins

Unlike swimmers, divers, snorkelers and freedivers do not use their arms for propulsion. Hence the importance of fins. But not all fins are the same: depending on the type of diving and the type of diver, it is necessary to choose one fin or another.

The right fins can make a dive fun and easy or difficult and exhausting. Today, the vast majority of recreational fins are made from a combination of different technopolymers, such as polyurethane and ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) . They are very strong materials and their performance is superior to rubber.

Regulators

The regulator is possibly the most important part of your equipment, as it connects to the scuba tank and is used for breathing underwater. In addition the regulator has more functions. A complete regulator consists of a first stage, a second stage, an alternate second stage (ALV), also known as an octopus, and a dive console. The dive console includes a depth gauge and a pressure gauge (manometer) and eventually a dive computer and a compass.

The depth and temperature of the water will determine which regulator is the most suitable to use. Come and ask us at Ereso and we will advise you on the most suitable one for you.

Oxygen cylinders

The scuba tanks carry compressed air between 200 and 300 bar, with a common amount of between 10 to 15 liters depending on the dive time. They are connected to the regulator and a pressure gauge to check the amount still remaining in the container. Like all other diving equipment, they should be checked every three years and visually inspected every year. Are yours up to date?

Flashlight

Dive lights are important if you are going to dive deep, in caves or night dives. It is a safety element, as well as allowing you to enjoy every detail underwater.

Accessories: Knives, belts and weights.

There is no superfluous accessory in diving. Make sure you have quality equipment, and enjoy yourself under the sea.

Remember: don't skimp on good underwater gear. There is no fun diving if it is not safe diving.
