If you are looking for dive centres in Malta look no further than Buddies Dive Cove. We have been a PADI 5 star IDC Dive Centre since 1999. Buddies is owned by Martin Stanhope and Karen Barnes.
Martin and Karen have huge experience diving all over the world but have made Malta their home. Martin is also Buddies' resident Course Director and conducts our IDC's and Instructor training. The team of dive instructors who work with us are recruited to reflect Buddies Dive Cove's philosophy of diver safety, service and local experience.
This is just one aspect of what makes Buddies Dive Cove the very best of the top dive schools in Malta.
Our air conditioned dive center has been carefully and strategically chosen and designed for divers to have access to the best dive sites of all three islands at reasonable cost. The dive center is open 7 days a week, all year round.
We are located in the centre of the popular town of Bugibba on the North East coast of Malta, just 100m from Bugibba square. From this location we have access to a shallow bay with varied bottom composition (sand, reef & posedonia) that is ideally suited for novice diver training.
The island of Comino, another popular dive destination with both novice and experienced divers, is only within 20 minutes from the dive center.
You will find purposely dedicated classrooms with the latest multimedia facilities to enhance your learning experience as well as an indoor pool to make your initial practical instruction experience as safe as possible.
Buddies uses only the latest available diving equipment for instruction & rental.All equipment is regularly serviced and maintained in-house. |
