I took the PADI Open Water Diver Course at Orca Diving Centre. I found the course was well organised and the team were good at adapting the course to our needs and schedule. Everyone at Orca was also very friendly and welcoming. I could tell that my instructor, Matt, was both very knowledgeable and very passionate about diving. He was an understanding instructor and was happy to go back over the exercises if there were parts I didn’t understand. We did the open water dives on Orca’s house reef and Matt showed me round a number of really cool spots whilst we were out. Aside from doing the required skills to meet the PADI certification, he also passed on useful practical guidance to help me in my future diving career. Overall, I would definitely recommend Orca to anyone looking to take a course or to try diving!We wanted to take the open water course during our week in Pula.

We wanted to take the open water course during our week in Pula. We booked in advance by email and it was great! Olga and the staff are really nice and fun, the equipment is good and we enjoyed it very much! Our instructor Jin was so much fun we laughed all the time! During the course, she was very patient and clear when she explained the exercises. We took the course in 3 days and even got a free dive in the end! The club is 3 meters away from the sea and there’s a restaurant above it that’s good too! If you’re looking for a good spot to dive in Pula, don’t hesitate to go there because it’s the best place!

I reached out via email to the dive center prior to my trip and Marin was was helpful in providing information when inquiring about Scuba Diving. I've never been before so it was good that he kept in touch and answered quickly the questions I had. When I arrived, I met the PADI dive instructor Matija who was fantastic and really helped me get comfortable with diving for the first time. He explained in detail our plan for certification during my stay and fully trusted him when we were diving. He explained how challenging it would be but never made me felt that I couldn't complete the certification. I would absolutely recommend to anyone interested in scuba diving, whether for the first time or not. The area is rather quiet with a decent restaurant above the dive center. Overall was a great experience.My husband and I booked the Open Water course with Orca before arrival, which was all very easy.

My husband and I booked the Open Water course with Orca before arrival, which was all very easy. Our instructor, Mattija, was friendly, funny, and very good at making the lessons we were learning understandable, memorable and relevant. I found some of the confined exercises tough at first, and even took some time out of the lessons with nerves. Mattija and Sergei kindly arranged for me to have a one-to-one dive to regain my confidence, and then worked with me to get me through all the remaining tasks even though it took a day longer than planned. Orca were kind, friendly and professional throughout, with Marin and Olga also chatting to us, and I couldn’t recommend them more highly. The reef was also a lovely place to learn - the sea is just a short walk from the centre - and we were fortunate enough to experience a dive through tunnels and caves alongside more experienced divers.Die Erfahrung war wirklich ganz toll. Alle Leute waren freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit. Ich war sehr zufrieden und würde jeder Zeit wieder dort hingehen.🐋🤙
