Full-Face Mask Snorkelling in Nessebar Old Town

Full-face mask snorkelling in Nessebar Old Town lets you explore the seabed with an accompanying instructor, without needing swimming skills. Enter the water gradually from the shore, discover the underwater side of the ancient town and, when conditions allow, take away a video memory of your time in the sea. Choose an Adventico voucher for yourself or someone who would enjoy a different kind of seaside experience.

Discover the underwater side of Nessebar Old Town

The activity takes place around Nessebar Old Town. As you look beneath the surface, you may see the remains of submerged ancient buildings, offering an unusual perspective on the history of this coastal town.

A full-face mask covers your entire face rather than requiring you to hold a snorkel mouthpiece in your mouth. This can make the experience more comfortable, particularly if you dislike having objects in your mouth. You do not need to know how to swim to take part.

How the snorkelling session works

You enter gradually from the shore, walking approximately 20 metres into the water. An instructor accompanies you, and your time in the water lasts up to 35 minutes: around 15 minutes exploring the seabed, a 5-minute rest to breathe without the mask, followed by another 15 minutes of underwater observation.

Allow about one hour for the complete experience, including preparation. The activity takes place in a group that may include people you do not know. Arrangements are listed for one, two, three or four participants, but choosing a participant count does not make the session private.

What is included

• Up to 35 minutes of full-face mask snorkelling with an accompanying instructor.
• A briefing from a qualified instructor.
• A full-face mask, fins, diving boots and a wetsuit.
• Gloves and a life jacket if you would like them.
• Video recording in the water when conditions are suitable.

Age, weight and health requirements

The experience is suitable for children aged 10 and above. The stated participant weight range is 20–150 kg. A parent or legal guardian must complete the declaration for anyone under 18. Risk acknowledgement declarations and a medical form must be completed before entering the water.

The provider lists the activity as unsuitable for people with epilepsy, a perforated eardrum, pregnancy, a runny nose, inflammatory conditions, or high blood pressure accompanied by heart disease. If you have high blood pressure without an accompanying heart condition, written permission from a doctor is required.

What to bring and how to prepare

• Bring swimwear, a towel and a bottle of water. A changing room is available on site.
• Tie back long hair before entering the water.
• Taking part on an empty stomach is discouraged; have something light to eat beforehand.
• Drinking alcohol the evening before the activity is not recommended.
• A long journey immediately before the session is also not recommended.

Season, weather and advance contact

Snorkelling runs daily from 15 May to early October, but only in favourable weather. The activity is weather-dependent, and the stated advance booking lead time is 96 hours.

You must contact the diving centre the day before your visit, using the telephone number provided when arranging the experience, to check the weather conditions. Purchasing a voucher does not in itself confirm that the activity will go ahead on a particular date.

Receiving your video

Underwater video recording takes place only when conditions are suitable. If footage is recorded, it is sent 3–7 days after the experience in a Google Drive folder. You need to provide an email address. To play the videos, you may need to download an HEVC codec from Microsoft's official website.
