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.

Es hat unglaublich Spaß gemacht. Danke Reggie, für die kompetene Einweisung und für das sichere Gefühl, welches du uns jederzeit vermittelt hast. Auch toll ist es, im Nachhinein Bilder und Videos von den Unterwasser-Einheiten zu haben. Klare Empfehlung!

Una experiencia de 10. Arturo no solo es un gran instructor de apnea, también consigue transmitirte mucha calma y confianza. Gracias a él he podido superar miedos, sentirme más seguro en el agua y disfrutar muchísimo de la experiencia. Se nota que le apasiona lo que hace. Totalmente recomendable.

Una experiencia increíble y totalmente recomendable. Hicimos el curso de iniciación a la apnea y superó muchísimo nuestras expectativas. Desde el primer momento nos sentimos muy cómodos y seguros, incluso teniendo algunos nervios al principio. Quiero destacar especialmente a Arturo, nuestro instructor. Es un profesional increíble: transmite muchísima tranquilidad, explica todo de forma clara y tiene una paciencia enorme. Se nota que disfruta de lo que hace y que realmente se preocupa por que aprendas, pero sobre todo por que te sientas seguro y disfrutes de la experiencia. La parte de la ecualización, la respiración y la inmersión fue mucho más fácil gracias a sus explicaciones y a la confianza que transmite. Conseguí superar miedos y hacer cosas que antes pensaba que no sería capaz de hacer. Ha sido una experiencia preciosa, tanto por descubrir la apnea como por la forma en la que Arturo nos acompañó durante todo el proceso. Sin duda repetiríamos y recomendamos el curso al 100%. 🌊🤿

I went freediving with Reggie. The support was perfect from start to finish and in just one session I overcame my blocks. France took the time to understand my needs before suggesting the best possible coaching. Reggie isn't just a great coach for technical advice, she's also encouraging, energizing, and instills confidence. The dive site is beautiful. My only regret is not having more time; I had a flight to catch. I really highly recommend it !

I did the freediving and spearfishing course in Gozo with Arturo. I had no previous experience in anything water related and Arturo thoroughly taught us both the basics and once we had a solid base we went into the details of techniques. not only did we learn an important skill for life but also we take with us an unforgettable experience. I would say this is a must do if you visit the island.

I was super nervous before my first freediving sesh, but the team made everything feel so easy and chill from the start! They were so supportive, and even switched up the time just for me which was so sweet 🥹 Plus they snapped some amazing pics/photos of the whole thing, literally obsessed with them. Had the best time ever and would 100% come back to dive with them again! 🤿💙

This is what an exceptional freediving instructor looks like. Reggie is absolutely fantastic — incredibly professional, passionate, patient, engaging, knowledgeable, and, most importantly, so much fun to learn with. Every question I asked became an opportunity for Reggie to deepen my understanding of the key concepts behind freediving. Nothing was ever rushed or dismissed. She has an amazing ability to take something complex and make it clear, practical, and genuinely exciting to understand. What really blew me away was the sense of security she creates in the water, particularly as you move into deeper dives. At every stage, Reggie is there — gently guiding, calming, encouraging, and giving exactly the right instruction to help you progress safely and confidently to a new level. I’ve come away with a completely new and much deeper understanding of what I’m trying to achieve in my diving, along with real clarity about the many ways I can improve as a freediver. And then there’s the filming! Reggie is not only an ever-present guide and support in the water, but she films the entire process so you can actually watch yourself back, observe what’s happening, identify what needs changing, and understand how to improve. It’s honestly mind-blowing how much learning can happen in a single session. If you’re looking for a freediving instructor who combines exceptional knowledge and professionalism with patience, warmth, encouragement and genuine passion for the sport, I cannot recommend Reggie highly enough. An outstanding instructor and an incredible experience. 🤿🌊

Great school. The instructor is really good, giving individual feedback and taking you to the best spots for the conditions that day! Both freediving and spearfishing were an unforgettable experience.
