Own Equipment

Like usual are weights and tanks in our diving packages included. During the summer month most divers feel comfortable in a 5 to 7 mm wetsuit. The water temperature in summer ranges from 23º to 26º C. Between December and April is a good semi dry or a dry suit recommended. In February the water temperature drops down to about 16º C.

Diving from shore and with the boat

Most dives in Malta and Gozo are done from shore. Most dive sites are more comfortable to accesses from shore than it would be possible by boat. At a lot of places the seabed drops straight down to 15 - 25 meters. The interesting wracks are usually located in less than 10 minutes from an entry/exit point. This dive sites are served by car all year round. During summer we are also serving the most popular dive sites by boat. The boat trips are made with for diving specially converted traditional Maltese fishing boats (Luzzus).

Depending on wind and weather are the best dive sites around Malta, Comino and Gozo also served by boat. The boat trips start direct in front of the dive center. In about 15 to 60 minutes we usually reach the first dive site. During our surface interval we enjoy the sun or dock somewhere for a coffee and a snack. After our return between 15:00 h and 16:00 we meet at the dive center or the pool bar for a drink.
