Fantastic week of diving with Watercolour Diving Malta!!!! I did eight dives with Hugo as a dive guide, very professional, friendly, very attentive to everything and everyone, he made me feel absolute safety and confidence and I had a great time diving in Maltese waters. We did several different types of dives and sites, and they have a good prices.
Many thanks especially to Jason and Hugo and also Enol and Giuseppe that I met at the dive center during those days. 100% recommendable!

I had the absolute best experience diving with Jason at Watercolours Dive Centre. Jason made the reservation easy to set up, provided great equipment, and was an excellent guide during the dive. No need to take a long boat ride to a dive site! The reef a few hundred meters off shore is amazing! I definitely recommend.

Jason and Hugo are the best! Super friendly and relaxed while ensuring safety, comfort, and a great time. Cannot recommend a dive shop more highly. Hugo took some incredible photos/videos on a GoPro so I could commemorate the dive and they turned out better than I could have hoped.

My 17 year son and I tried our first dive with Jason and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Jason took time to orientate us with the basic science and the equipment before an initial go in the sea pool to get us used to breathing under the water and safety essentials and then into the bay for a 42 minute dive - lots to see, an amazing and tranquil experience and Jason is a really cool guy - conveys very well the zen of diving - relax, breathe, enjoy it and float on. We’d love to come back to do more with Jason and watercolours - one of these fine days… until then, thank you so much.

Myself and my two teenage sons completed our first dive with Watercolours today, and the boys said it was one of the best experiences of their lives. Our guide, Enol, was superb and Jason and the rest of the team were welcoming and friendly. The whole experience was magnificent - who knew there was another world under the sea!

Picked this company from previous reviews, myself and my wife really enjoyed our lst dive for 3yrs and Hugo (dive master ) was very professional and understanding as we are both over 60yrs of age. Watercolours picked the shore dive and read us into what to expect, wetsuits are a bit tattered otherwise all other equipment lst class, always felt we were in safe hands , Hugo was always eager to point out interesting features of the 70 minute dive. I recommend to anyone to use this company in the future and ask for Hugo when booking he loves his job and it shows

Enjoyed two days with the team. Dive briefings were thorough, the equipment was well maintained, efficient and helpful staff. Special mention to "young" Alex, who took good care of us on the dives, and to Jason for helping me sort out an issue on the first day. The variety of dive sites is great (caves, wreck, reef and tunnels all in a few dives) adjusted to meet all dive levels and experience.

Hello,
I've never tried scuba diving and I'd like to experience it . How much does it cost? Do I have to make a reservation?
Thanks for the answers

Hello Haifa, thank you for your inquiry. As an introduction to scuba diving I would strongly recommend our PADI Discover Scuba Diving activity. This experience will last around 4 hours and consists of an in depth lecture on the sport, then a pool dive, where you’ll need to perform a couple of skills followed by an open water dive to a maximum allowable depth of 12 meters. When we’re you thinking of diving with us? Jason

Hi Giovanna, thank you for considering to dive with us. Yes we have staff who speaks Italian. When were you thinking of booking this course?
do you have to book in advance, im arranging a surprise trip for my fiancee in mar 2016 along with her daughter who has got her padi certificate already
and how much is it to take her padi whilst she is in Malta
Jason F

Hi, Thank you for considering to dive with us. It's always recommended to book at least a few days in advance, however March is not a very bust month therefore I'm sure there'll even be the possibility of same day booking/confirmation.
There are 3 popular PADI introduction courses namely the PADI Discover Scuba Diving, PADI Scuba Diver & the PADI Open Water Diver course, 1/2 a day, 2 days & 3 days respectively. Which of these 3 courses would you be interested in completing?
Should you wish further info we could also be reached through our website or you can call us on +35699821829

What is the cost for a beginner?
Jason F

Hi!
You can start with a half day program 60€ per person
PADI DISCOVER SCUBA DIVING - €60.00 - Max Depth 12 meters
Duration: ½ day am/pm. Minimum Age: 10 years
This half day course guides you gently into this wonderful and safe sport. Together with an experienced PADI Instructor you’ll first discuss many different topics regarding Marine Diving Safety, Scuba Diving Equipment, Necessary Scuba Diving Skills (Theory & Practice), Marine Life Awareness, Conservation and The Diving Environment. After this very interesting in-depth briefing a pool dive will follow. This is where the student breathes for the first time underwater and learns how to use the diving equipment in the safe, shallow confines of the pool or confined water. The student will also further build confidence by performing basic scuba diving skills under the direct supervision of a qualified PADI Instructor. After this first pool/confined dive an Open Water scuba dive will follow where the student simply enjoys a shallow scuba dive in the open sea under the direct supervision of a qualified PADI Instructor.
