Diving Center Cala Pada Ibiza - Balearic Islands
The team at Diving Center Cala Pada Ibiza are our go-to for a relaxed dive trip on the island’s east side. We’ve found their setup perfect for those looking to ease into Ibiza’s underwater world, particularly if you’re bringing newer divers along. They really shine at getting people comfortable, from Discover Scuba sessions right through to Open Water. We love that they run trips every day from their beachside spot, heading out to sites like the famous Don Pedro wreck, but also to smaller, less trafficked spots closer to shore. Our favourite dives with them have been the shallows around Cala Martina, where the light plays beautifully through the Posidonia seagrass, and you often find octopus peeking from rocky crevices. Visibility here can hit 25 metres on a good day, especially outside the peak summer months. If you’re looking to get certified, or want to introduce friends to diving without the usual pre-dive rush, Cala Pada offers a genuinely warm, unhurried experience. It’s exactly what you want from a holiday dive shop.
