Scubazar is a dedicated diving specialist located in Hyères-les-Palmiers, positioned perfectly between Toulon and Saint-Tropez. It sits at the gateway to the Giens Peninsula, placing you within easy reach of some of the most significant marine protected areas in France.
Founded in 2010, the centre operates out of a large 250m² specialised shop. It serves as both a technical hub for equipment and a base for exploring the waters of the Port Cros National Park, specifically the areas facing the island of Porquerolles.
The centre is run by professional instructors Claire and David, who bring years of expertise to the local diving scene. They provide professional guidance for a variety of diving needs, from equipment selection to underwater exploration.
The team operates with a focus on technical precision, supported by a high-end on-site service workshop. This workshop is equipped with an ANSTI test bench, allowing for professional maintenance of regulators, dive computers, and BCDs.
Scubazar offers a complete range of diving education. You can begin your journey with introductory programmes or work through the standard certification levels to become a fully qualified diver.
For those looking to advance their skills, the centre provides training for more complex environments and deeper dives, catering to divers who wish to progress beyond basic open water capabilities.
The shop is a comprehensive resource for divers, stocking a wide range of equipment from major brands including Cressi, Scubapro, Beuchat, and Aqua Lung. Whether you are looking for specific kit or need to browse the latest in diving technology, the 250m² showroom is well-equipped.
For those who prefer not to carry their own rig, the centre offers full equipment hire. This includes essential items such as wetsuits, fins, masks, and regulators, ensuring you have reliable kit for your dives in the Mediterranean.
