Situated in Llançà, the Centre d'Immersió Cap de Creus sits at the gateway to one of the most significant marine environments in the Mediterranean. Being the first diving centre established within the Cap de Creus Natural Park, it offers direct access to the protected waters of the Costa Brava.
For over 30 years, the centre has operated as a local reference point for divers seeking to explore the rugged coastline and crystalline coves of the region. The location allows for boat excursions to hidden spots that remain largely untouched, providing a diverse range of underwater topographies.
The centre is an SSI-affiliated diving school with a team of certified instructors who specialise in the local marine environment. Their expertise is built on decades of experience navigating the specific conditions of the Cap de Creus coastline.
Beyond standard recreational diving, the team provides instruction in a wide array of SSI specialties and professional programmes. They promote a model of responsible diving, ensuring that all activities, from guided explorations to training courses, align with the conservation goals of the Natural Park.
The training catalogue is extensive, covering the full spectrum of SSI certifications. Beginners can start with the Open Water Diver course, while those looking to progress can undertake the Advanced Open Water Diver or the Master Diver programmes.
Specialised training is a core part of the curriculum, including Nitrox, Deep Diving, and Decompression Diving. The centre also offers technical and skill-based courses such as Recreational Sidemount Diving, Perfect Buoyancy, Navigation, and Search & Recovery. For those interested in professional paths, Divemaster and Dive Guide programmes are available.
The centre provides full equipment hire for divers arriving without their own kit, including wetsuits, regulators, and BCDs. For those requiring more technical assistance, dive computers are also available for hire.
On-site facilities include a Nitrox station to support extended bottom times for advanced divers. The centre is equipped to handle various diving needs, ensuring that both recreational divers and those undertaking specialised training have the necessary support.
The marine life in this part of the Mediterranean is defined by a rich variety of fixed life. Divers will encounter diverse corals, sea fans, and sponges decorating the rocky structures of the reef.
Among the more mobile residents, you will regularly see various fish species and crustaceans moving through the habitats. The underwater landscape is shaped by these biological features, creating a complex environment for both macro and pelagic life.
For those interested in specialised programmes, the centre also offers SSI Mermaid programs and underwater photography sessions to capture the local biodiversity.
