Islands Tec Dive — Local services in Żebbuġ

I recently had the pleasure of diving with Manuel and Sarah at Islands Tec Dive, and I cannot express how impressed I am with their professionalism, expertise, and overall exceptional service. From start to finish, they provided a dive experience that exceeded all expectations.

First and foremost, Manuel and Sarah's knowledge and skill in scuba diving were outstanding. They were highly trained and experienced, ensuring our safety at all times while still making the dives incredibly enjoyable. Their attention to detail and thorough briefing before each dive made me feel confident and prepared, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the underwater world.

Moreover, their passion for marine life was truly contagious. They had an incredible ability to spot even the tiniest of sea creatures and point them out to us, making each dive a unique and awe-inspiring adventure. Their enthusiasm and love for the ocean were evident, and it enhanced the overall experience, leaving me with unforgettable memories.

Additionally, Manuel and Sarah's friendly and personable nature created a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere throughout the dives. They were patient, attentive, and always available to answer questions or provide guidance. Their positive energy and genuine interest in ensuring everyone had a fantastic time made the whole experience even more enjoyable.

The equipment is well-maintained and they have top-notch dive gear(have fun with the DPVs!). They were professional and accommodating, creating a pleasant and organized environment.

I cannot recommend Manuel and Sarah enough. They are true professionals who go above and beyond to deliver an outstanding dive experience. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced diver, diving with Manuel and Sarah at the Dive Center will undoubtedly exceed your expectations. I am already looking forward to my next dive adventure with them.

Thank you, Manuel and Sarah, for an unforgettable experience!

Sincerely,

Marco

Ps. still waiting...

Truly amazing people and shop... It was an absolute pleasure working with Sarah here for my XR foundations course. It's readily apparent that she and Manuel are extremely passionate about what they do and do it to the highest standards. It's a small operation of just them two, but I'm so glad they keep it that way because it allows you to form meaningful connections and actually learn things compared to your typical large shops solely concerned on turning a profit.

For one, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that Sarah would be working with me 1-on-1 through foundations; for them it's the norm to work with as few guests as possible simultaneously so that each person can get the attention they deserve. Additionally, she also was an invaluable resource for things about equipment config and other practical information that's just not as easy to digest online. Not to mention all the small things that they did to make life easier, such as helping me with transportation.

Regarding the course itself, just as amazing! What I appreciated the most about it was the attitude with which it was conducted--Sarah will teach you as much or as little as you want. If you want to be a card collector and do the bare minimum to get a cert, then she's happy to oblige. If you're serious about improving your skills and want to be challenged, she'll happily do that, too. For me, I came here to have a hard time and a hard time I did get, but I'm so much better off because of it.

All in all, I highly recommend this place. I will be back because few places are able to match the combination of price, quality, and professionalism here.

NB: they also rent dry suits here which is a huge plus!! It's hard to find places that rent dry suits so do take advantage...

Personable. Safe. Professional. Manuel and Sarah are amazing divers and extremely professional with their dive shop.

My friend and I decided on Gozo based on the various reviews for best diving in Europe and we were not disappointed. Islands Tec Dive were quick to respond to all my queries and helped with every aspect of our trip.

They pride themselves on ensuring every diver's safety, taking all the necessary precautions and making adjustments as needed, based on skill, level, fitness level and weather. They really are excellent and I would recommend them to anyone. Manuel is an octopus whisperer and can spot them a mile away - we saw at least one on every dive thanks to him!

They recommended we take the Deep Dive course with SSI but weren't pushy about it. While we were on the fence at first, we're glad we did it so we could get an even better dive experience on the wrecks in the region.

We very much appreciated that they are early morning divers, allowing us to get ready calmly before the crowds. The popular dive sights can get busy but Sarah and Manuel have found ways around this to make our experience feel secluded and private.

Between them, they speak at least four languages fluently (French, German, Italian and English) and are happy to speak in any one of them for your comfort.

Their friendliness and openness are the icing on the cake of our experience...
