YOUR FIRST DIVE
Complete your Try Dive in the crystal-clear waters of St. Julian’s, Malta. A perfect activity for experiencing scuba diving for the very first time; no previous experience required.
In this 2–3 hour activity, we’ll teach you how to use the diving equipment, you’ll learn to breathe underwater, and you’ll complete a real open water dive; always accompanied by a professional instructor.
A try dive is a first scuba diving experience; a beginner’s taster dive that lets you breathe underwater and complete a real dive in the sea: the ideal test before your Scuba Diver certification, no course required.
Also known as a discover scuba diving experience, it’s the perfect way to enter the underwater world in a simple, fun and accessible way. The goal is to enjoy the sea and try diving in a safe, controlled environment, always accompanied by a professional instructor.
During the activity you’ll learn the core concepts of diving and witness marine life while experiencing the unbelievable sensation of weightlessness underwater for the first time.
Our try dive is incredibly easy, fun and safe. Forget the nerves; our team will be with you every step of the way so you can focus on enjoying the magic of your first immersion.
We’ll kick things off with a fun, simple talk, breaking down the core concepts of diving and how the gear works. After that, we’ll get you geared up with our help. Our diving equipment is top-notch and brand new.
Before the real deal, we’ll do a quick comfort check in a shallow area where you can stand safely. You’ll practice breathing with the regulator and getting comfy with the mask. Once you’re feeling good, you’ll nail some basic exercises, always with your instructor.
When you’re ready, you’ll complete a real dive in the sea alongside your instructor. You’ll explore Malta’s fascinating marine life at a maximum depth of 12 metres, always at your own pace and under constant professional supervision.
Our introductory dive includes absolutely everything: a theoretical guide, a certified instructor who’s obsessed with diving, a wetsuit, diving equipment, and mandatory insurance. We’re even nice enough to give you a plate of fruit or hot broth when you’re done, to celebrate your first dive!
You'll get a crystal-clear, detailed briefing about the diving equipment, how it works, and the essential safety rules – all delivered with passion.
A top-notch guide who speaks your language (Spanish, English, Italian, or French) and will be with you every step of the way.
Mask, fins, wetsuit, BCD, regulator, and tank. All equipment is in top condition.
Specific coverage for the activity from the moment you arrive at the center until the end of the dive.
Make the most of your time in Malta and enjoy your first dive in the crystal-clear, life-filled waters of St. Julian’s.
The introductory dive is built for beginners. No experience needed, no special fitness required – just bring your desire to try something new and fall in love with your first dive!
Dive into the best dive sites in Malta: crystal-clear waters, mind-blowing visibility and vibrant Mediterranean marine life. It's one of the top places in Europe to start diving – calm, safe, and seriously stunning.
Every regulator, BCD and gauge is serviced on a schedule and checked before it leaves the center. You dive in kit that is looked after, fitted to you on the day, and replaced long before it gets tired.
We work with small groups of maximum 4 people per instructor, guaranteeing personalised attention and the highest level of safety at all times. Our priority is that you enjoy your first underwater experience comfortably, calmly and safely.

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…

The dive lasts between 40 and 50 minutes – give or take, depending on how you’re breathing and how comfy you are down there. The whole shebang, from the moment you walk in to when you’re bragging about it afterwards, is about 3 hours.
At the end of your dive, you’ll score your digital SSI try diving recognition. It’s not a full certification like the Open Water Diver, but it’s official proof you took the plunge!
Safety is EVERYTHING on your try dive. If the sea’s playing rough and conditions aren’t ideal, we’ll reschedule your dive or hook you up with a killer alternative.
If the dive can’t happen because Mother Nature’s throwing a tantrum or for safety reasons, we’ll get you rescheduled or find another awesome option.
For client cancellations, check the fine print when you book.
The try dive is your gateway drug to the underwater world – perfect for getting a taste of scuba with a guide by your side. Our diving courses are the real deal: full-on training, theory, practice, and a shiny official certification. You can jump straight into a course without ever doing a try dive, but why would you?!
You can do a try dive from age 10. As long as you’re cool in the water and, if you’re a minor, you’ve got the thumbs-up from your folks.
We roll with small squads – max 4 divers per instructor. That’s how we guarantee a safe, personalized, and totally awesome experience.
Hell yeah, it’s safe! A try dive with us is a controlled, guided experience. You’re always under the watchful eye of a certified SSI instructor, in a chill environment, and at a depth where you can still see the surface.
