Capo Galera Diving Center - Sardinia
Capo Galera sits right on the water, which we always appreciate – no dragging gear for miles. They’re a PADI 5 Star IDC Resort, so if you're thinking about a career change or just advancing your PADI certifications, this is a solid choice. We found their setup efficient, and the boats get you to some interesting grottoes and walls in the Capo Caccia area pretty quickly. It's a convenient base if you're focused on diving every day and want to be close to the action, particularly for those deeper dives into Sardinia's caves.
