Old Caesarea Diving Center - Tyre
The team at Old Caesarea Diving Center are exactly the kind of people you want to dive with: enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about their local waters. We love that they’re the oldest PADI centre on this stretch of the Med coast; it means they know every nook and cranny of the reefs and wrecks. This is a brilliant choice for divers keen to explore the rich history submerged around Tyre, particularly the ancient Roman harbour and its scattered amphorae. We’d suggest anyone interested in underwater archaeology or just a relaxed, friendly diving atmosphere checks them out. Our favourite dives with them often involve navigating the Roman ruins, where you’ll spot octopus peeking from ancient pottery shards and schools of damselfish flitting through broken columns. The visibility can be variable, but even on an average day, the history feels palpable. Go in the morning for the calmest conditions and best light on the wrecks. They run a smooth operation, focused on small groups, which makes for a much more personal experience.
