Orca Diving Center Info and Reviews

Fantastic experience: It's without doubt our favorite divebase in the costabrava. The atmosphere is amazing, the staff is super friendly and always up for some fun. While we've seen most dive sites orcadiving usually goes to, we keep coming back for the people and friendly atmosphere. It's now our homebase, if we'll do any further courses Ramon and team are going to be our 1st choice. Thank you guys for making every visit to you an experience! You surely played a role with us falling into love with diving.

Fantastic experience: Mi pareja, mi cuñada y yo hicimos nuestro bautizo ayer (14/09) con Orca Diving Center y no podemos estar más contentos. En concreto, lo hicimos de la mano de Eva, que en todo momento fue amable, cercana y paciente con nosotros, ayudándonos en todo y más. Además, al estar situados en el club náutico, disponen de buenas instalaciones para ducharte e ir al baño tras la inmersión. Acabamos la experiencia muy contentos y satisfechos, volveríamos a bucear con ellos sin duda :)

Fantastic experience: Volvimos encantados!! Hemos estado el fin de semana en L’Escala y ha sido una maravilla conocer este centro de buceo. Eva, Natalia, Ramón y Sergi han sido súper amables, atentos, profesionales y siempre sonrientes (Natalia tiene la sonrisa más dulce del Mediterráneo ). Trato muy personal y cercano. Se nota que sienten pasión por lo que hacen. Todo positivo: inmersiones, centro, experiencia y dedicación. Volveremos y además, será pronto.

Fantastic experience: I have done 2 immersions. Everything is great. Facilities are very good. The treatment is great and very welcoming. Not crowded at all and very quiet. They know the area very well and transmit a lot of confidence. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: A luxury diving center. We did three double trips and all were great despite having bad seas and low visibility. The team is super friendly and they take great care of you. They are very professional and at the same time fun. Plus, it’s super well located, with parking space, close enough to the village to walk if you are staying there. And the best part, the boat is right next to the center and the hot water showers so you can warm up quickly when you come back. Forget about the overcrowding in Medas and come dive with Orca Diving at l'Escala! You won't regret it ;)

Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We completed our level 1 diving course with 3 (1 adult and 2 children aged 13 and 17) in April 2023. The welcome by the diving center, and especially Ramon, was AMAZING!!! He managed to combine (with his teammate) competence, seriousness, relaxation, humor, patience, and attention at all stages: material preparation, putting on wetsuits, boat transport, and of course, the most important point, underwater. In the underwater world, he inspired us with confidence, vigilance, and a lot, a lot of attention, especially regarding ear problems. I recommend this friendly and professional diving center 100%, focused on the diver, regardless of their level. Thanks again to Ramon and his team for their warm welcome and all they provided us!
Translated from French

Fantastic experience: Excellent treatment and professionalism at all times. If you have the diving bug and want to do the baptism, this is your place. Thank you for everything. Incredible experience. Totally recommendable.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Good diving center located literally 5m from the water. The day we went, we did a dive at the wreck Regina, we weren't a very large group and we were quite comfortable on the boat. It was in November and in the equipment rental we missed having a vest in addition to the wetsuit for the cold, but they told us they didn't have any. What we liked the most was the comfort and the treatment we received :)

Translated from French

Fantastic experience: The whole team at Orca Diving is lovely. They do 3 dives a day at 8, 11, and 3 PM, all from a boat, in a family atmosphere. We took the Open Water course, and the service received was excellent. If this is going to be your first experience with diving, I highly recommend them.
Translated from Spanish

Positive experience: Recommendable Easy Diving (center less than 100m by boat), very helpful and nice staff. Rental equipment my wife had was ok, my suit had seen better days. Nice dive sites 10-20 minutes by boat. We enjoyed the dives very much.

Fantastic experience: Super team. Super equipment. Top diving. Thank you for this beautiful morning.
Translated from French

Fantastic experience: We did the baptism, a very good experience. The instructors were very professional and approachable. Definitely worth repeating!

Fantastic experience: Superbe expérience pour une première plongée ! Équipe super sympa et à l'écoute. Tout s'est très bien passé encore merci à eux!
Translated from French

Fantastic experience: Everything is great, they treat you like you are part of the family!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We did a diving baptism and it was fantastic! First, they give an explanation outside the water, and before going down to the bottom, you spend some time trying at the surface. They give a lot of confidence at all times and adapt to your pace. Ramon, Natalia, and the rest of the team are great. We will definitely do it again!
Translated from Catalan

Fantastic experience: More than 20 years of diving with Eva, the best in hospitality, atmosphere, and friendship.
Translated from French

Fantastic experience: Very good experience, a very professional team of guides eager to have a good time, the best briefing I have heard, the trip to Cap de Creus was very nice, a lot of fish, some spectacular octopus and groupers.
Translated from Catalan

Fantastic experience: It was a pleasure to dive with this center. Very professional and friendly, the equipment was in very good condition. Júlia was a delight, attentive to everything we needed and ensuring we enjoyed the immersion to the fullest. Definitely a highly recommended diving center!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: I did the diving baptism with them a few weeks ago and I couldn't be more grateful for the treatment I received. I was very nervous before the immersion and was about to give up. However, the instructors were very understanding and attentive with me, and thanks to them, I managed to complete the activity and enjoy it. A very professional team with a great vibe among them, which immediately makes you feel comfortable. 100% recommendable.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: It was a great experience. The team around us was very friendly and reassuring. As for the diving, I highly recommend doing it here :)

The treatment with the instructors was 10 out of 10, we really felt safe and protected thanks to their continuous attention and advice. It's very clear that they are passionate about what they do, and that passion is transmitted to you, making you enjoy the experience even more. We will definitely return.

Fantastic experience: We had a very positive experience at this school. We needed a refresh immersion to feel comfortable again under the sea. Ramón conveyed a lot of confidence, safety, and motivation, so we would definitely repeat.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: We were looking for a diving center to get the PADI Open Water and PADI Advanced. Our instructor Grazia, who spoke good French, gave us very good advice and trained us to be good divers. Very pedagogical, professional and always available for us! Thank you Grazia for these unforgettable moments in Torre Lapillo! We highly recommend Orca Diving Center ☀️☺️☀️!
Translated from French

Fantastic experience: My 4 children aged between 23 and 13 years and my 17-year-old niece have had their sea baptism....fantastic and enriching experience. They exceeded all expectations and more. Additionally, it's important to highlight the individualized care and the patience and professionalism they showed with my 13-year-old son Joan, who is Asperger, to ensure he didn't get emotionally blocked during such a new experience....an exquisite touch and delicacy.....he returned elated and with a boost of self-esteem. Highly recommended!
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: A welcoming team. Far from the big diving centers where you are 40 on the boat. Here, the family spirit is essential. I recommend Orca Diving.
Translated from French

Fantastic experience: The best diving center in l'Escala!!!
Translated from Catalan

Fantastic experience: Very good center. Interesting immersions, calm atmosphere, and highly personalized.

Translated from Catalan

Fantastic experience: A very good diving center in a spectacular place
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The diving school with its many very dedicated and experienced instructors is absolutely recommended! Our son got his diving certification in Germany and was able to gather his first experiences in the sea here with us and the friendly and extremely patient teachers, and he enjoyed it very much :D The team is super structured, diving is done in small groups, and thanks to the pleasant atmosphere in the team, one feels comfortable and well taken care of from the very beginning! There are many different diving spots, and from beginners to professionals, there is something for everyone here! Absolutely recommended!
Translated from Deutsch

Fantastic experience: Excellent dive school with many very good and experienced teachers! Absolutely recommendable! Diving is done in small groups, so the assigned teacher can optimally cater to the skills of each diver. There are also many different dive sites - there is something suitable for every age and level of difficulty :)
Translated from Deutsch

Fantastic experience: A good place if you want to scuba dive, great atmosphere, good service especially with little Xavi and Roc. A place to return to and totally recommended
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: Today I did two dives with them and as soon as you arrive you realize the good vibe among the colleagues. Super friendly always, over the phone, assisting me there and diving. Very professional and they help you with everything, they also have patience and know how to adapt the dives according to the person and how they see them in the water. I recommend them 100% and if I go back there I would dive with them again.
Translated from Spanish

Fantastic experience: The best: Eva, Jose, Xavi, Cristina, Silvia, Ari, and Jordi. They will take care of you and make you feel comfortable from minute one. No rush, no stress, and in small groups. Comfortable, functional, anti-crowding boat, and located just 20 meters from the center. Couldn’t be better. The worst: Nothing. I’ve been thinking for half an hour and I can’t come up with anything. They must be annoying!!! es

Fantastic experience: Excellent diving club. Very friendly and competent. No-stress atmosphere for a long and deep dive baptism! Go there!
Translated from French

Positive experience: Good dive guide, who was in control of every situation and showed us nice 'things' during our wreck dive. However, no English speaking guide was available on our tour. I think the orca boat could use an engine service.

Fantastic experience: We did the immersion of the cathedral. We were a small group and the treatment was very close. Our guide, Robert, was very professional with us.
Translated from Catalan

Fantastic experience: A very friendly little club, top-notch instructors! Orca diving is the center where diving is a real pleasure in l'escala! You can do many different dives as they have 30 dive sites. This small center will allow you, through its small 12-seat boat, to discover diving or practice it in a relaxed atmosphere! Moreover, a snack is offered after each dive! In short, a club to recommend and where you can go without hesitation! Note: this club speaks English, Spanish, and French.
Translated from French

Fantastic experience: Great team, great equipment, great atmosphere. I spent a week learning to dive with them (SSI Open Water Diver) and the welcome was perfect, they are attentive, listen, and are smiling. The explanations were clear, they speak French, Catalan, English, there’s something for everyone! Underwater they are perfect and instill confidence. It’s 5 stars without hesitation. I recommend it to everyone, beginners or experienced, wanting to dive in l'Escala.
