What catches our eye about this experience? First, the guides’ local expertise shines through in reviews, making sure you’re in good hands.

The Diving Sites & Underwater Highlights

What makes Malta special for divers? Its crystal-clear waters and excellent visibility ensure your underwater scenery will be sharp and vibrant. The tour showcases some of the most iconic sights: WW2 shipwrecks, which are always a hit for history buffs and wreck lovers alike, underwater reefs, arches, caves, and tunnels. Plus, if you’re a movie fan, you’ll find it fun to explore underwater locations featured in films like Troy and Popeye.
The diving instructors will run through a safety briefing before each dive, covering entry and exit points, signals, and potential hazards. They’re experienced locals, and you’ll appreciate their guidance whether you’re familiar with Malta’s diving scene or it’s your first time.
What Does the Experience Feel Like?

From the moment you step into the tour, it’s clear the focus is on smooth logistics and good guidance. The meeting point is in St. Paul’s Bay at the Aquatica Diving Centre, which is convenient and easy to find. After a quick paperwork process and gear check, your group will head out to the dive site.
The first dive usually lasts around 45 minutes, giving plenty of time to take in the underwater scenery and snap some photos if you rent a camera. After surfacing, you’ll have a chance to relax, hydrate, and discuss what you saw. The second dive follows a similar pattern — another 45 minutes of exploration, revisiting favorite spots or trying new ones.
Many reviewers highlight the professionalism of guides, describing them as knowledgeable and approachable. One said, “Very knowledgeable guides and stress-free transport to and from the marine park, will definitely be coming back!” That kind of feedback suggests you’ll be in good hands, with a focus on safety and enjoyment.
The Practical Side: What’s Included & What’s Not
Included in the package are two guided dives, transport to and from the dive sites, tanks, and weights. This setup makes it easier to appreciate the experience without worrying about logistics. You’ll need to bring your own scuba certification, swimwear, towel, and any personal gear you prefer to use.
If you want to rent equipment or a camera, that’s available at extra cost — just let the organizers know beforehand by providing your sizes. The flexibility to reserve now and pay later adds a layer of convenience, especially if your plans are still flexible.
Not included are extra charges for dives in Gozo or by boat, or photo and video services. If you’re hoping to get underwater photos, you might want to rent gear or bring your own. Also, keep in mind that additional charges apply if you want to extend your experience beyond the two dives or explore specific sites like Gozitan wrecks.
