English and Diving in Malta

The Maltese islands are considered a dream destination for scuba diving. The waters here are among the clearest in the world and visibility is excellent down to around 30 metres. The local interesting marine life, coupled with startling seascapes that include underwater caves, reefs, cliffs and wrecks make the Maltese archipelago a favourite with both novice and experienced divers.

Students who select our popular English + Scuba Diving Programme follow a General English course in the mornings and a PADI Certificate course in the afternoons. The Professional Association of Diving Instructors (PADI) is the world's largest training agency and its certificates are internationally recognized. The school works closely with one of Malta's leading dive schools which is conveniently situated nearby. Students may choose a PADI Open Water Diver Course which consists of classroom sessions, shallow water dives and then real sea dives, or a PADI Advanced Open Water course which consists of 5 open water sea dives. The open water dives take place all around the islands of Malta, Gozo and Comino. In order to take a diving course, all students need a current Medical Certificate of Fitness to dive, issued and signed by a doctor (students may take the medical test in Malta). (Minimum Age: 14) Course: 20 Group English Lessons per week + selected Diving Course.
