Dive Center
Our shiny new diving center offers its very own indoor pool for dive training as well as impressing thanks to its spacious reception and check-in area. In the store area you’ll find snorkelling and diving equipment for sale, as well as Dive Vision Malta merchandising items and various souvenirs. In our photo equipment corner and electrical appliances charging station, the underwater photographers among you, can enjoy undisturbed work with their cameras, prepping them for diving and taking care of them post-diving.

Dive Sites Malta
Vis á vis to the dive center is the small island of Comino with its numerous, well known dive sites. The island of Gozo can also be reached straight from our bay, within a fifteen minutes boat ride.
When the weather doesn't allow boat diving, we can reach our little sister island Gozo in no time by ferry, as our center is just five minutes away by car from the ferry terminal. Of course we also offer regular trips to the spectacular wreck of the "Um El Faroud". The Lebanese tanker, with its impressive length of 110 meters, lies at a depth of up to 38 meters and therefore still within recreational limits.

- REIBI (GRATER) -
Senior Scuba Cat and Director of Sleeping
Our Reibi is a real fossil, because she has been living at the Labranda Riviera Hotel and Spa since it was founded. In other words, she has been here longer than most of the staff and hotel management ;-) Her age is currently estimated at 19 years and her name comes from her scratchy voice. The little hairy lady has already experienced a lot in her long cat life and has chosen our dive centre premises as her retirement home for quite some time. Reibi sleeps most of the day and contributes to the relaxation and good mood of our divers with just her presence. Otherwise, she likes to be cuddled and sometimes gives a kiss or two to people she particularly likes.
