Submariner GmbH/Das UW-Center

Right in the heart of Frankfurt am Main, Submariner GmbH / Das UW-Center is a PADI 5 Star IDC dive centre where, as the team puts it, you'll find everything a diver's heart needs. New to the sport? Their instructors are happy to talk you through the range of PADI diving courses in a relaxed, unhurried atmosphere — a friendly conversation that sets you on the path to your own diving paradise.

What Submariner is known for

The centre pairs an onsite classroom and dive boat with a well-stocked retail shop carrying respected brands, backed by competent advice that continues long after the sale. Air fills come in Nitrox, Trimix and mixed-gas options, and the workshop handles equipment sales, service and repairs. A broad rental fleet covers everything from BCDs, regulators and dive computers to wetsuits, cameras, scooters and cylinders in a range of sizes, including children's fits.

With parking on site and staff speaking both English and German, it suits everyone from first-time students to technical divers wanting properly serviced gear and reliable gas fills.
