Sub Center Parma

Since 1982, Sub Center Parma has spent over 40 years welcoming both adults and children into the underwater world. As a PADI 5 Star Dive Center based in Parma, Italy, this ASD training facility is driven by a clear passion: respect for the sea and its biodiversity.

Courses and community

With 7 PADI instructors on the team, the centre guides divers from their very first breaths underwater through to more advanced training, growing and perfecting skills every step of the way. Course offerings span PADI Scuba Diving, Freediving, Snorkelling, Conservation, and EFR first aid, with instruction available in English, Spanish, and Italian.

On site you'll find a dedicated classroom, air conditioning, free Wi-Fi, accommodation, and food and drinks, alongside air fills and full equipment rental — including kids' sizes. An active dive club rounds out the experience, making this a natural home for new divers, families, and anyone wanting to keep developing close to Parma.
