With over 300 days of sunshine a year, Malta is a perfect destination in every season. Whether you're escaping the cold winter months or looking for a summer retreat, you'll find warm weather, breathtaking  views, and an inviting island lifestyle waiting for you.

Every corner of Malta tells a story—from prehistoric temples to lively village festas. Imagine wandering through Valletta, a UNESCO World Heritage Site bursting with baroque beauty, or swimming into the turquoise waters of the Blue Lagoon in Comino. Feel the echoes of the past in the silent city of Mdina, and soak up the sun on Golden Bay's or Ghadira's sandy shores, or simply sip local wine as the sun sets over a harbor lined with colorful boats.

Malta is the ultimate travel destination whether you're a culture lover, beachgoer, or foodie.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Freediving Experience with Reggie – Manoel Island, Malta I had an excellent freediving session with Reggie at Manoel Island in Malta. The session was a great combination of skill development, building confidence, and exploring some fascinating underwater locations. We worked on hangs at depth, focusing on improving breath-hold confidence, relaxation, and staying calm underwater. Reggie created a really positive environment to develop these skills at a comfortable pace. We also explored the wreck of the X127, including swimming through part of the wreck, which was a fantastic experience. Reggie is a great instructor who makes the session both enjoyable and rewarding. I came away feeling more confident in my freediving and with a real sense of achievement. Highly recommended to anyone looking to improve their freediving skills or experience the underwater world around Malta!

I’ve had an amazing week of diving with Regina. She is very knowledgeable and has an eagle’s eye when it comes to identifying problems with my equalisation. Besides that she’s offering a very comfortable and safe environment to develop yourself with all the patients of the world. Definitely coming back for another coaching/training week anytime soon, because I made huge progress in the 5 days that I was training with apnea total Malta. More than I have done in the past 6 months in the Netherlands

Had a wonderful cave exploration session with Arturo. Unbelievably beautiful experience made possible with excellent guidance, equipment and knowledge. Had a free immersion session in the afternoon also where each dive was a PB.. Comfortable, relaxed and breaking new territory. Expert awareness and understanding.. every small detail of each dive observed and knowing how to guide and inform, to progress. Thank you Arturo 👍

Very friendly and professional team! I spent an unforgettable time with them :-) They reacted quickly to all my needs. We did 4 expedition dives with Reggie, including cave and wreck dives. She is very calm, helpful, and always smiling :-) Before the very first dive, she fixed my equalization difficulties in 2 minutes—I didn't think that was possible! I felt completely comfortable and safe with her, even in the caves and inside the shipwrecks. She pushed my limits noticeably yet gently. I would definitely like to return for an advanced course!

I had a wonderful time with Regina: she's incredibly empathetic, has a great understanding of the psychological side of freediving, and at the same time works meticulously on refining and optimizing your technique. I felt completely at ease with her, she's a wonderful person with great energy, and I'd come back anytime. Highly recommended!

I had amazing days in the water with Arturo: he's a true expert and an excellent teacher who values safety just as much as exploration and adventure. On top of that, he's super friendly, always there to help with any problem, and goes to great lengths to make sure his clients have a really good time. Highly recommended!

Apnea total freediving in Gozo was incredible. I booked my two teenage children (18 and 15) in with Arturo and he was amazing with them. They learnt so much from his expert tuition and really appreciated his humour. His English was perfecto! They both flourished with his guidance and completed their freediver course. He also sent us amazing footage of them freediving - memories to cherish forever. I 100% recommend Apnea for a freediving certification and experience.

I’m scuba diver and I wanted to try apnea to learn new things. I chose Gozo island in Malta to do the level 1 freediving course with Apnea Total Malta and the experience was amazing. The instructor Arturo was fantastic, professional, patient and encouraging, making me feel confortable and confident throughout the training. I got certified in two days with no problem. Reaching 20 metres deep with no gear, just fins and mask, was an unforgettable experience. The crystal-clear, beautiful blue waters and perfect water temperature made the experience even more enjoyable. I’ll definitely keep practicing, that’s for sure! I totally recommend it! THANKS !!!

This was my second time doing multiple dives with Apnea Total Malta. So happy with the experience, with the instructor, the set up and the teaching. Super nice fun dives around a reef and diving in caves. Would love to come back again!
