Barra da Lagoa · Fortaleza da Barra · Florianópolis — SC
Departures every day at 08h and 14h to Ilha do Xavier, Ilha das Aranhas and Ilha do Campeche — 0 to 34 metres. Discovery dives, certified dives and NAUI courses, from beginner to instructor.
Discovery Dive
At Ilha do Xavier, with all equipment included and the instructor beside you from the start of the dive to the end.
R$ 410,00 per person · R$ 60 deposit to reserve
Two live prices: the product page publishes R$ 410.00 while the related-products rail on another page publishes “from R$ 380.00”. Both cannot be current — and two live prices for one product is a consumer-law problem, not merely an inconsistency. Both are left visible. [CONFIRM]
“No need to know how to swim” is their homepage claim — and their Open Water page requires swimming ability. The sentence only appears on this site alongside the supervision and flotation arrangements that support it. [CONFIRM]
Their own published rule, in capitals on their site: “THIS IS THE TIME TO BE AT THE SCHOOL GATE”. The gate opens at 08h and 14h and closes at 08:20 and 14:20. After that there is no boarding.
Allow for Florianópolis traffic. Missing the gate is a deposit-forfeiture condition, which is why this notice appears here and again at the point of booking — not hidden in a product description.
Dives and trips
All departures: 08h and 14h, minimum 2 people, R$ 60 deposit per person, cancellation up to 24 hours ahead.
All equipment and one cylinder. Ilha do Xavier, Ilha das Aranhas or Ilha do Campeche — chosen on the day by sea and wind. 0 to 34 m.
R$ 440,00 per person
+ R$ 100.00 if an instructor or dive master is required to guide the dive. The conditions that trigger it: [CONFIRM]

Duration and inclusions: [CONFIRM]
Book →Your “about” copy also mentions spearfishing and boat trips, which your navigation does not sell. Spearfishing carries its own regulatory considerations — protected species, closed seasons, protected areas — so it is not listed, described or priced here until confirmed. [CONFIRM]
Where we dive
“which island depends on sea and wind conditions” — your words. No species list, visibility figure or water temperature has been invented here.
Courses
The whole ladder you publish, on a single spine. No course price appears anywhere on your site today — so every rung carries R$ [CONFIRM] rather than an invented number.
NAUI is the only agency you name. Nothing on this site substitutes, adds or implies PADI, SSI, CMAS or any other — and no credential number has been invented.
Not a certification. A 3-hour outing at Ilha do Xavier with a 30-minute dive, the instructor alongside throughout.

Safety and credentials
None of them has a public answer today. None has been invented here — and in a sport where the worst case is irreversible, a fabricated credential is the most serious thing you can put on a website.
They name NAUI, and only NAUI. Nothing on this site substitutes, adds or implies PADI, SSI, CMAS or any other agency. The centre’s affiliation and each instructor’s credential number:
[CONFIRM]Two boat departures a day, all year, to offshore islands, to 34 m. Vessel registration and inspection, mandatory onboard safety equipment and a licensed operator are governed by the Brazilian Maritime Authority rules. Vessel, registration and licence:
[CONFIRM]Ministry of Tourism registration for tourism operators. Not published today:
[CONFIRM]Third-party liability and diving accident cover, and whether dive insurance is required or offered:
[CONFIRM]Their own Open Water page already requires medical approval. The medical questionnaire and waiver must exist and be signed before any in-water activity — and the questionnaire is health data, sensitive under the LGPD: never a plain web input feeding an inbox.
[CONFIRM]This sentence is on their homepage for the discovery dive, while their Open Water page requires swimming ability. What supervision, buoyancy and flotation arrangements make it safe for a non-swimmer — and that answer is published beside the claim, or the claim comes down:
[CONFIRM]Onboard oxygen and the nearest recompression chamber, with a written evacuation plan:
[CONFIRM]Separate from the customer’s 24-hour rule. How it works and how the deposit is handled:
[CONFIRM]It is a protected archaeological and environmental site with visitor restrictions. Which authorisations permit commercial diving there — the operation is not described as authorised until that is confirmed:
[CONFIRM]Booking and payment
08h or 14h, every day. A minimum of 2 people for the departure to run.
R$ 60.00 per person, by Pix, bank deposit or transfer.
The rest is paid on the day, at the school.
Reschedule or cancel up to 24h ahead. Under 24h, the deposit is forfeited.
These are contractual terms: under Brazilian consumer law the deposit, the 24-hour window and the gate rule must be presented before payment, not after. That is why they appear here, on the gate card, and beside every price.
About
“we operate all year with departures for scuba diving, discovery dives, spearfishing, boat trips and specialty courses.” — your words.
We removed the four “differentiator” blocks your template shipped with — Elite Equipment, Exclusive Experiences, Continuous Support, Constant Updates. They are generic template copy making unverifiable superlative claims, and they do not survive into this build. What replaces them is the safety section above.
[CONFIRM — pull real Google or TripAdvisor reviews, or obtain written permission from named customers.] The three testimonials on the current site — “João P. — Student”, “Maria F. — Student”, “Carlos S. — Student” — are template copy that was never replaced. None of them appears here, and no testimonial has been written in their place.

Because the boat leaves. It is their own published rule: 08h/14h to be at the gate, 08:20/14:20 and it closes. Arriving later means not boarding — and that is a deposit-forfeiture condition, which is why it appears here and at the point of booking.
Their rule for a departure to run. If you are on your own: [CONFIRM]
