Steep, rugged cliffs, caves, valleys and picturesque rock formations dominate most of the Maltese Islands' dramatic coastline. Below the surface of the water, the scenery is as breathtaking as above with the single difference that divers have got the exclusivity of visiting it.
Atlantis Diving Centre gives you the opportunity to discover this unspoilt underwater natural beauty. The warm climate, crystal clear blue waters, virtually no tides or currents, and a prolific marine life are the right ingredients which keep divers coming back year after year. Most of the best dives are on north-west Gozo with its exceptionally spectacular caves, caverns, drop-offs, offshore reef structures, gullies, chimneys, tunnels and arches. On the south coast we have also got the wrecks MV Xlendi, MV Cominoland and MV Karwela. Irrespective of your qualification, accompanied dives are led by experienced instructors. Diving around Gozo, Comino, Malta, on offshore reefs, or underneath high cliffs is done from either a hard or a semi-rigid boat. A few dives ought to be done from the shore, such as night dives, beginner dives, and other dives whose main fascination actually emerges when one starts from the shore; in such cases we use four-wheel-drive vehicles for transport. As a PADI 5 Star IDC facility, Atlantis Diving Centre offers various courses leading to internationally recognised qualifications, from Scuba Diver up to instructor level, as well as speciality courses and Discover Scuba dives. Courses are run in many languages and whenever possible, the manual, DVD and other academic material of the respective language is used. Atlantis shop also sells a vast choice of diving equipment at very competitive prices. Other services offered include any diving equipment rental, servicing of equipment, air fills from our own compressors and air banks, nitrox, accommodation, transfers, excursions, and car hire. Only steel tanks are used, thus reducing considerably the amount of weight carried on the weight belt. |
