I enjoyed diving with DiveBase Malta. I booked at the store, which is easy to find at the boulevard. For me it was important to know that the dive would take place, even when I would be the only one to go for a dive. We did 2 dives, entering the water from the shore. Antonio & Antonio gave my dive group (3 persons) with their profesionallity, hospitality, patience and humor a great dive experience.

Hello Joyce, Cirkewwa Marine Park is one of our favourite dive spot, ideal for a quick check & refresh dive before enjoying the beautiful reefs. We wait for you to be back in Malta to continue the adventure with the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver Course. See you soon & thank you for your lovely words! DiveBase Team

My first ever time diving in Malta and it was great! From start to finish, it was an incredible experience with the friendliest of staff. Antonio and Clare were amazing at making me feel welcome, providing water and snacks during our water interval and great conversation.

I would definitely recommend to any solo/ dive travellers wanting a chilled dive with some amazing people. Definitely will return!

This diving school is a little gem. All staff were friendly, extremely welcoming and helpful. Me and my daughter did a rebreather course with Antonio who's knowledge and delivery of information was the best we have ever had. My daughter unfortunately had an anxiety attack before diving and the staff were incredible with her. One even gave her a hug when she returned to the office alone which she says was much needed. I then went on to do two further dives with Antonio. Everything from the equipment, drive to the dive site, briefing was all top notch which resulted in a very relaxed and fun diving experience. This has improved my confidence no end and I now can't wait to do more. You guys have definitely got it just right. Thank you 😊

Completing the Advanced Open Water Diver and Nitrox Enriched Air courses at this dive center was an exceptional experience. Davide provided top-notch instruction, ensuring my understanding and safety every step of the way. The team went above and beyond to accommodate me and their commitment to personalized learning was worth every penny. I can't wait to return for more dives with this fantastic team. Thank you so much Davide, Georgia, and Antonio!

I did my Open Water qualification with Dive Base Malta and they were amazing. All the staff and supporting Dive Masters were great, but I need to give a special shout out to Lena, Sonia and Davide. I was very nervous to do my diving qualification, especially when practising the essential life-saving skills. But Lena and Sonia were very patient, kept me calm, and boosted me up afterwards to feel proud of my progress.
When doing my final open water dives, I struggled with my breathing at 18m and started to panic. Sonia was absolutely excellent in calming me down under the water and supporting me to finish the dive.

Overall, I felt very safe and supported with Dive Base Malta, who were also flexible to my schedule and letting me sign up to do extra elements of my qualification at short notice. I couldn't think of a better centre to do my qualification with.

We completed our Open Water Qualification with Antonio. The instruction was tremendous and we had a fantastic experience. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Caterina always replied quickly to emails and explained arrangements clearly. When one of our party couldn't dive one day, the centre managed to arrange another session for him to complete his qualification.

Overall, our experience with DiveBase Malta was excellent. We thought pricing was fair and competitive.

A really good dive base - we are not the most experienced divers and (as most people in the world) had to take a break from diving for a fews years now.... But the refresher dive was very helpful and we enjoyed our regular dives with both Antonios and Giorgia a lot and felt very safe. Catherina in the shop was also very nice and helpful organizing everything. We definitely recommend!

We are a family of six who came to Malta to complete our Padi Open water scuba diving qualification. We chose Divebase Malta and we are so glad we did. All of the instuctors are very professional, safety conscious, patient and extremely accommodating. We all thoroughly enjoyed our experience in wonderful locations and look forward to future dives. We would highly recommend this dive school to everyone.
Thank you to all staff. You are fabulous! X

Sabine and I were looking for a ncie diving week over New Year`s Eve, without the need of taking a long flight. Both of us have been to Malta very long ago, without diving. By accident we chose DiveBase Malta and we booked a room in the Seaview Hotel nearby the divebase. The week was excellent. The guys of DiveBase Malta are always friendly and in a good mood. The briefings for the dives have been precise and clear. We had a perfect week with them, exploring different wrecks and caves. If you go there you feel, that diving is their live and not just a job. We were happy that we ended up there and we will be back for sure !!! Stay safe, Antonio & Antonio

I recently completed my PADI advanced scuba diving course with Dive base. We went to Cirkewwa Marine park and went to some really cool dive sites including the tug boat, the jars, Madonna statue and the P29 Patrol Boat.
The dive shop is in a convenient location and the dive site was a nice scenic 25 min drive from the shop.
The staff were amazing, particularly Antonio my dive instructor. He is super experienced making my dive experience relaxed and enjoyable!
