Diana Diving

Set on Italy's Tuscan coast in Follonica, Diana Diving is a PADI Resort dive center that opens the underwater world to just about everyone — its dives run in the sea, at the lake, or in the pool, and are open to anyone aged 8 and over. Not sure you're ready to commit to a course? The Discover Scuba Diving experience lets you find out what it feels like to breathe underwater first.

Courses for every level

The training path here is comprehensive, starting with PADI Open Water Diver as your first certification and building through Advanced Open Water — where you'll practise navigation and buoyancy, try deep diving, and complete three specialty dives of your choice. The Rescue Diver course sharpens your problem-solving and confidence, while the Divemaster program opens the door to going professional.

On-site facilities include a training pool, a classroom, air conditioning, a dive boat, parking, and food and drinks. The team also offers snorkeling, sightseeing and sunset boat trips, equipment sales and rental, air fills, and conservation activities, with staff speaking both English and Italian.
