Barracuda Diving Mallorca

Located in Port de Pollença, Mallorca, Barracuda Diving Mallorca has established itself as a specialist in introductory diving over the last two decades. The centre is designed around a personalised approach, ensuring that every diver receives the attention required to build confidence in the water.

Unlike many operations in the region, the centre conducts its activities directly from the beach. This shore-based method provides a stable and predictable environment for those making their first dives, removing the complications of boat transfers and the potential for motion sickness.

The team is led by Juan, an instructor with extensive international experience. The centre prioritises small groups, allowing for a high level of individualised instruction and safety monitoring.

Instruction is provided in both English and Spanish. This bilingual capability ensures that communication remains clear and precise, whether you are working through a beginner programme or completing a certification course.

With over 20 years of operational history in Mallorca, the staff is well-versed in the local conditions and the specific needs of novice divers. The emphasis remains on safety and a calm, controlled learning environment.

Barracuda Diving Mallorca is a PADI centre offering a comprehensive range of training programmes. For those completely new to the water, the Discover Scuba Diving programme provides a supervised introduction to what diving feels like.

For those seeking formal certification, the centre runs the PADI Scuba Diver course and the full PADI Open Water Diver course. These programmes include the necessary E-learning components to streamline your training. Additionally, the centre offers the Enriched Air (Nitrox) course for divers looking to extend their no-decompression limits.

The centre provides full equipment hire for all divers, including everything required for a complete dive rig: regulators, BCDs, wetsuits, fins, and masks.

For those looking to extend their training or enhance their dives, Enriched Air (Nitrox) is available on-site. The centre also maintains oxygen safety equipment to ensure high standards of safety during all activities.

As the centre operates with shore entries, the experience is largely dictated by local swell and coastal conditions. Divers are advised that they should be good swimmers to safely navigate the shore entry and exit processes.

When planning your diving schedule, it is important to allow a safety interval of 12 to 24 hours between your final dive and any flight.
