Scuba Malta’s St Julian’s center at Portomaso Marina is recognized as one of the best dive centers on the island. We run try dives, SSI and PADI courses and guided dives every day of the week, all year round, just steps from the water.
Scuba Malta runs its main dive center inside Portomaso Marina, a modern sailing marina in the heart of St Julian’s with direct access to the sea. From here we offer try dives, SSI and PADI courses for every level, daily guided dives and snorkeling trips, all year round, with small groups, expert instructors and brand-new equipment.
The marina is just minutes from Spinola Bay, Sliema, Paceville and St George’s Bay, one of Malta’s most popular and well-connected areas, easy to reach from nearby hotels and accommodation.
From your very first breath underwater to professional training, everything happens here. Try dives, official SSI and PADI courses for every level, daily guided dives and snorkeling trips — all leaving from Portomaso Marina, all year round. Pick your adventure and we’ll take care of the rest.
Feel what it’s like to breathe underwater for the first time. We gear up at the center in Portomaso Marina and minutes later you’re surrounded by the crystal-clear waters of Malta, with an instructor by your side the whole time, in calm and shallow spots chosen for first-timers. No certification needed, this is where it all starts.
Discover some of the best diving spots in Malta: reefs, caves and WWII wrecks that make this island a legend among divers. We head out from Portomaso Marina every day of the week, all year round, with guides who have over 1,000 dives in these waters and pick each site based on the day’s conditions.
Get your first diving certification and open the door to a lifetime of exploring the sea. Official SSI and PADI courses at our St Julian’s center, with real open-water dives just steps from the marina: no crowded pools, no endless theory. Small groups, your own instructor, and the Mediterranean as your classroom.
Ready to push your limits? Go deeper, master your buoyancy, dive at night or explore the inside of a sunken wreck. Malta’s most iconic sites are a short ride from the center, so every training dive is a real adventure.
Turn your passion into your profession. Train as a Divemaster or diving Instructor working side by side with our team at a fully active dive center, with daily boats, real students and some of the best diving conditions in Europe. Few places in the world beat learning to lead dives here.
Top-notch gear. Certified instructors. Small groups. Everything at Scuba Malta is built to guarantee safe dives and seriously high-quality scuba diving experiences in Malta.
Fast access to some of the best dive sites on the island; you're in the water before others are even in the car.
Over 1,000 dives in Maltese waters. They know every reef, every wreck, every current. That knowledge is in the water with you on every single dive.
High-performance regulators, stable and comfortable BCDs, modern dive computers; all regularly inspected and ready to perform when it counts.
More eyes on you underwater, more time with your instructor, and a genuinely personal experience. Every dive, every time.

He venido esta semana a Malta y he tenido la mala suerte que toda ha sido de tormentas y lluvias. Pese a todo, Scuba Malta me ha estado llevando a bucear con Lisa, que es una excelente instructora y Carlos que también domina el tema. Así que dentro del mal tiempo, me han ayudado a poder mejorar mi técnica de buceo.
Muy buena experiencia. El instructor Carlos es excelente, explica muy bien y brinda un muy buen acompañamiento durante toda la actividad. El lugar donde se realiza la actividad genera una gran experiencia, gracias a los peces y al barco que se puede observar. El área administrativa es muy atenta. Además, la sopa que ha…
