Malta scuba diving with Buddies
Dive Cove
We organize daily shore and boat dives around Malta, Comino (boat only)
and Gozo. The dive sites are selected on the day according to the wind
and sea conditions, divers' experience and special interests. Take the
time to check the Malta
Scuba Diving page for a brief description of the
more popular and known dive sites. Please scroll to the end of the page
to have a look at a typical 5 day Malta scuba diving programme with
Buddies. Small groups of qualified divers (at least Padi Scuba Diver
rating or similar) are escorted by one of our instructors throughout
the dive. Where ever possible, divers are split into different groups
according to experience and training. This is the best way to ensure
that you enjoy the best dive sites of the islands as logistics for the
dives are handled by experienced instructors.
Our Malta scuba diving package fees are charged in Euro (EUR). The equivalent value in Sterling and
US Dollar are for comparison purposes. Please check the current
exchange rate in your country. Prices are subject to change without
notice. Group rates apply. Please contact us for a confirmed quote. We
accept the following credit cards - Visa, Visa Electron, Mastercard,
Eurocard. We also accept Eurocheques.

who wish to dive in a group without being guided underwater by one of
our instructors must be qualified to PADI Advanced Open Water or
similar. Alternatively, if one of the members of the members of the
group has an instructor rating, and is willing to take responsibility
for divers having a rating less than PADI Advanced Open Water, then the
latter may also dive in an organized group.
