Tortuga

Tortuga is a PADI 5 Star IDC dive centre based in St. Petersburg, Russia, welcoming divers in both English and Russian. It's a family-minded operation built on the idea that you shouldn't have to choose between great diving and time with the people you love — there's something here for every member of the family.

Courses and training

Learning is at the heart of Tortuga. Alongside PADI Scuba Diving courses, the centre offers PADI Snorkelling, conservation-focused training and PADI First Aid (EFR), so you can progress from your first breaths underwater to more advanced skills. An onsite training pool and classroom make it easy to build confidence before heading out.

Facilities are geared toward comfort and convenience, with free Wi-Fi and a full rental range for adults and kids. The centre also handles equipment sales, runs conservation activities, and hosts an active dive club and travel programme. It suits families, newcomers and returning divers alike — anyone looking for a friendly, well-supported home base in St. Petersburg.
