Diving Center VIKING

Diving Center VIKING is a family-run dive school in Hvar, Croatia, operating with tradition since 2003 and a highly trained team behind it. Tucked into a stunning sheltered bay, it offers a relaxing, cozy setting alongside the varied aquatic life of the Adriatic. As a PADI 5 Star Dive Resort with 3 PADI Instructors, it deliberately keeps groups and classes small, focusing on a personal approach, comfort, safety and environmental responsibility.

Courses and who it suits

The center runs a clear ladder of PADI training: the Open Water Diver Course, the PADI Scuba Diver Course, the Open Water Referral (Part 2/2) and the Advanced Open Water Diver Course. That range makes it a natural fit for newcomers earning their first certification as well as certified divers looking to progress, all guided with a boutique, hands-on style.

Divers here can explore the house reef and head out on the dive boat, with waterfront facilities including onsite accommodation, food and drinks, free Wi-Fi, parking, air fills and full equipment rental. The team speaks English, Spanish, German, Italian and Croatian.
