Dive shop facilities Located on site and equipped with 30 full sets of diving equipment. BCs and 5mm wet suits of various sizes can be supplemented by "shorties" for those who require extra warmth. The equipment is up to date and to a high standard. Regulators,computers,torches,fins and masks are all available. Facilities for kit washing and drying, private changing room and customer toilets all within the centre. Overnight equipment storage facilities.
Dive shop opening hours Because this centre is self contained and the owner lives on site there is always someone on hand to help.
Repairs and servicing We have an engineer on site for standard equipment.There is no need to bring large repair kits and spares.
Air and gas We have a compressor on site and 1000 lt air bank supplying double filtered,"clean"air. We do not cater for Nitrox,we have found this unnecessary.
Training PADI and CMAS.From Open Water Diver to Instructor.
Dive Boats We have a large 14m hardboat which can take up to 20 divers and a 7.5m RIB powered by a 200hp Honda outboard, comfortably taking up to 12 divers.These boats remain at the centre for availability.The movement of kit to the boat is simplified by the use of a small land boat on rails which is lowered to the boat by electric winch. Carrying of heavy equipment is limited to loading on and off the boat for the ease of the customer.
Prices and packages Prices are all on the web site
Shore dives We will lower your kit to the water's edge by winch, making bay dives convenient and easily available. The bay has extensive areas less than 6m deep, ideal for training. There is no current to contend with, the water is clear and warm and the sea-life interesting for the trainee.
Other Information This is a self-contained dive centre on a peninsular, visited by divers during the day and safely fenced and gated during the night,for the security of those who wish to stay. The centre is only five miles from Alghero airport and the centre minibus can be arranged for collection and return. Flights from the UK with Ryanair have been as little as £27 return,inclusive of tax,for some recent customers. Accommodation for up to 30 people is available in rooms in the main house and in two villas which are set among the trees a short distance from the main house. The villas allow both privacy and atmosphere for small groups, sleeping four or six. Both villas have kitchens, as does the main house, for self catering. We do not have a restaurant on site but we can arrange Barbeque events as required. For futher information especially in relation to the dive sites, please see web site.
