Ritual Dive - Comino

Ritual Dive, tucked away on Comino, isn’t just another dive shop. The team here really knows their stuff, and we mean deep, technical stuff. If you’re looking to push past recreational limits, they’re your people. They offer serious SSI XR and technical courses, all the way up to instructor level, which is a rare find in this part of the Med. Our pick for a typical day involves a morning boat dive to one of Comino’s quieter spots – maybe Santa Marija Caves, where the light shafts are incredible around midday, or the P31 wreck, which is always buzzing with damselfish and the odd moray peeking out. Then it’s back for a proper lunch on the island before heading out again. We’d suggest you take advantage of their deep diving expertise, as the drop-offs around Comino offer some great technical playgrounds if you’re certified. They’re super organised, and their rental gear is always well-maintained. We love how personal the experience feels, even when they’re busy. You don’t get lost in the shuffle here. Just be aware that Comino gets busy in summer, so early morning starts are key to beating the crowds.
