SCUBA DIVING
Diving in Malta and Gozo is possible all year round. It is also suitable for divers with any level of experience. Water temperatures, reach 26 degrees Celsius for summer diving and go down to a minimum of 13 degrees Celsius for diving in winter. Underwater visibility is an average of 30 metres plus per day. Malta and Gozo also hold the reputation of having some of the cleanest waters for diving in the Mediterranean. Being an island, if the seas are rough, which is very rarely, there is always a sheltered cove somewhere accessible to divers

We have teamed up with the two best and most professional dive schools in Malta and Gozo to provide you with the most fantastic diving experience
