Diving at Gozo
Malta and Gozo are renowned for the spectacular and easily accessible diving. It is one of the few country’s left now with the permit to allow unaccompanied diving for the qualified (you have to be at least PADI advanced) diver. The island is full of dive shops, but the one we recommend is St Andrews Dive Cove in Xlendi. Joe, Diana, Mark and Moppet the dog, will satisfy your every diving need with care, compassion and expertise. They have a well stocked shop supplying equipment from Apeks, Seaway and Waterproof plus a fully equipped hire facility.
Their boat, Divemania, is skippered by Mark, a director of the company. Mark, and all the instructors and dive masters, have a great knowledge and years of diving experience on the islands of Gozo and Malta. It is guaranteed that they will make the diving experience a memorable one.
Diving on Gozo and Malta is never boring, we are not surprised to see the naturally inquisitive Barracuda swimming around our fins or Tuna during a feeding frenzy at the end of the day, or even Grouper the size of small submersibles gliding majestically along below us. The water, usually crystal clear, gives way to fantastic, natural rock formations, caves, and wrecks begging to be explored. The dive sites around the islands are easily accessible from both shore and boat. St Andrews can organise transport to and from dive sites and we can deliver you and collect you from St Andrews Dive Cove should you not have your own transport.
If you are going to dive on an unaccompanied basis, it is imperative that you hire a car, see our car hire and transport page for further details. Whether you are experienced, inexperienced, or just want try it to see if you like it, or just maybe wanting to improve on your diving skills and experience St Andrews will assist your needs and requirements
