Blue Fin Dive Center

Blue Fin Dive Center in Mainz, Germany has been hooked on diving since it was founded in 2001 in Framersheim — and the founders cheerfully admit they're "addicted to nitrogen." Sociable, motivated, and endlessly enthusiastic, they're a welcoming home base whether you want to learn to dive, explore the water in Germany, or venture further afield.

Courses, training and what they're known for

As a PADI Dive Center, Blue Fin offers PADI Scuba Diving courses along with PADI First Aid (EFR) training, with an onsite training pool to build confidence before you head out. Over the years they've grown a network of partner dive centers in Thailand, Mexico, France, Egypt, the Maldives and the Philippines, opening the door to diving trips far beyond home waters.

The affiliated diving club has more than tripled since the early days, now counting well over 100 members. With staff speaking English, German and Czech, plus air fills, equipment sales and a full rental range, it suits everyone from first-time learners to seasoned divers looking to expand their experience.
