When booking diving, tell us whether the meeting place for the taxi transfer indicated on the map is suitable for you, or whether you will come to us in person at the diving center. The address for taxi transfer in Split is "Tolstojeva ulica no. 4". As a rule, the transfer takes about 20 minutes. If you come to the diving center with your own vehicle, we have a sufficient number of parking spaces near the diving center itself. There is a possibility to make the transfer from a location closer to your accommodation.
It is possible to pay with credit and debit cards, cash or bank transfer.
Beginners without experience and diving certification can be offered INTRO DIVE and DISCOVER SCUBA DIVE. See offer on pages under "TRY DIVE EXPERIENCE"
We have been offering the Bublemaker diving program for children since 8 years.
Children 10 years of age can access the Intro Dive, Discover Scuba Diver, or enroll in the Junior Open Water Diver course (10-14 years old)
FOR THE PADI OPEN WATER DIVER COURSE IT TAKES AN AVERAGE OF 4 DAYS, AND IT IS VERY OFTEN POSSIBLE TO FINISH IT IN 3 DAYS. BEFORE COMING TO OUR DIVING CENTER, THE STUDENT COMPLETES THE THEORETICAL PART AND THE EXAM ONLINE THROUGH ELEARNING. IF THE PRACTICAL PART OF THE TRAINING IS PARTIALLY COMPLETED, THAT IS, THE COURSE IS INTERRUPTED DUE TO ILLNESS OR SOME OTHER REASON, THE PARTICIPANT WILL PAY ONLY FOR THE COMPLETED PART OF THE TRAINING AND WILL RECEIVE A "PADI TRANSFER FORM" WITH WHICH HE CAN CONTINUE THE TRAINING AT ANY OTHER PADI DIVING CENTER AT A TIME THAT CONVENIENT TO HIM .
Unfortunately, if you are not certified by any of the diving associations recognised by the RSTC, we can only offer "intro dive" (1 dive) and "discover scuba dive" (2 dives). You can be on board with certified divers but you will dive separately with an instructor up to max. 12 meters.
OF COURSE YOU CAN GO TOGETHER UNDER CERTAIN RULES. DIVERS WHO HAVE A CERTIFICATE MUST ADAPT TO THE LIMITS OF DIVERS WITHOUT A CERTIFICATE AND IN THAT CASE, THEY CAN DIVE TOGETHER. ANOTHER OPTION IS TO DIVIDE INTO TWO GROUPS. DIVERS WITHOUT A CERTIFICATE DIVE WITH AN INSTRUCTOR UP TO MAX. 12M, AND THE SECOND GROUP DIVES WITH ANOTHER INSTRUCTOR DEEPER IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LIMITATIONS OF THEIR CERTIFICATE.
As a rule, in the peak season, the morning half-day trip is reserved for certified divers and the afternoon dive we try to book for beginners.
In case we have a situation where we have both beginners and certified divers on board (pre-season or post-season), in that case we divide the group into 2 groups and each group has its own diving instructor / leader and dives according to his plan. Here we must mention that we have a lot of diving locations where both inexperienced and experienced divers can dive and that everyone is satisfied.
Non-divers can also board the ship if we have room. They pay for the excursion as "non-divers" or opt for "snorkeling", in which case they will receive basic snorkeling equipment (mask, snorkel, fins and short diving suit) and can view the bottom from the surface as most of our diving positions are also suitable for snorkeling.
Certificate, swimsuit, towel, sunscreen, dry clothes for post-dive change, possibly snacks or a sandwich ...
We always have fresh water on board and waterproof bags or storage tanks.
Yes, of course. The diving center is located in a building by the sea where there are 4 apartments with a total capacity of 17 beds. for a holiday with swimming pools.

The half-day excursion lasts from 3 to 5 hours (from departure to return), depending on whether it is a planned excursion that includes 1 or 2 dives and how far the diving locations go. The best time to book is to get a more accurate schedule.
For "intro dive" and "discover scuba dive", a student does not have to be a swimmer. We have to mention that Venus Diving Center instructors have quite a lot of experience with non-swimmers.
Of course divers from other associations can also dive with us. There are dozens of different diving associations in the world. The only thing that matters to us is that the association's certificate is recognized by the World Recreational Scuba Training Council (WRSTC), an international association for divers training standards.
