Diving in Gozo: Two morning dives for certified divers

Two dives in one morning, from the same Gozo shore

Two guided dives in Gozo for certified divers, departing at 8am from Marsalforn and returning by early afternoon. You descend at local shore sites with a guide who leads up to four certified divers, and all SCUBA equipment is provided and cleaned after. Between dives, the group breaks for coffee, tea, cookies and water while tanks are swapped. Your dive certification must be brought with you.

The experience

You meet at the shop in Marsalforn at 8am, where your dive gear is already assembled to your sizes. The guide drives the group to the first dive site, gives a briefing on the site and safety protocols, and you enter the water. The dive ends when any diver reaches 50 bar, at which point the group makes a safety stop and surfaces. Back on shore, you change tanks, rest, and refuel with coffee, tea, cookies and water while the guide prepares for the second dive.

The second dive happens in the same area as the first: Gozo has multiple sites accessible from a single car park, so the guide can vary the descent based on conditions and the group's interests. When you surface the second time, the guide signs your logbooks and drives everyone back to Marsalforn. You leave your dive equipment with the operator. They clean and store it, so you walk away without that chore.

All SCUBA equipment is included in the price. A dive computer or torch can be added for €8 each if you want one for the day. The dives are shore entries only, and the group stays small, one guide per four certified divers, so the pace is unhurried and safety-focused.

What happens between the two dives?

After the first dive, the group surfaces, returns to shore, and rests while the guide swaps tanks. Coffee, tea, cookies and water are provided during this break before the second dive begins.

Are both dives at the same location?

Both dives are in the same area of Gozo, but the guide can access several different shore sites from one car park, so the second descent may be at a different entry point depending on conditions.
