Discover Scuba Diving (DSD)
Dip your toes into scuba diving without committing to a full course?
With the PADI® Discover Scuba Diving half-day experience, it’s entirely possible.
Together with a Scuba Point instructor, you’ll partake in a brief 30-minute theoretical session where you’ll learn the basic principles needed for a safe diving experience. You’ll be guided through the use of diving equipment and the essential underwater conduct.
After this, you’ll board a boat, and within 10 minutes, we’ll reach a secluded cove within the breathtaking La Maddalena Archipelago. Our diving adventure starts from a picturesque beach, sheltered from winds and waves.
You’ll embark on your first dive, descending to a maximum of 12 meters, exploring our submerged paradise for approximately 40 minutes.
Once the adventure concludes, a swift 10-minute return trip brings us back to Palau.

Daily Dives, Private Excursions & Snorkeling
The dive spots we explore are reserved exclusively for the diving centers of the Archipelago, guaranteeing unique and unforgettable scuba experiences.
Parto molto umile e timoroso verso l’esperienza del diving. Decido su consiglio di una amica di rivolgermi a questo centro per essere “iniziato”! Bhe esperienza bellissima del battesimo con l istruttore Leo! Decido quindi di proseguire con il corso open water. Un crescendo di conoscenze ed esperienze che mi portano dove una settimana fa non immaginavo nemmeno! Complimenti al titolare luca per l’ottimo diving center che sta gestendo e a tutto lo staff degli istruttori. Un plauso particolare all istruttore che mi ha seguito lungo il percorso open water: MATTEO! Bravo, preciso, sicuro, mi ha insegnato molto più di quello che le parole trasmettono: gesti, educazione, conoscenza e rispetto per il mare! Bravi! Consigliato a tutti neofiti ed esperti.
Sono annatoar centro subacqueo “Scuba point” e ve dico subito: Na bomba!
Appena arrivati te senti già a casa, n’accoglienza che manco da mammà: er tipo all’accoglienza, ‘n certo Luca, simpatico come er pane co’ la porchetta, t’illustra tutto, senza fa er professorone.
Istruttori top: preparati, pazienti e pure co’ ‘Na bella dose de simpatia. Io c’avevo un po’ d’ansietta, che dici “no me butto sott’acqua, che succede?, e invece tutto tranquillo. T’ispirano fiducia che manco er prete quando te confessi.
Le attrezzature? Sembrano nuove di pacca, tutto pulito, tutto ordinato, che quasi uno non se crede de sta in Italia.
E l’immersione… madonna santa! Un’acqua che pareva la piscina di lusso, pesci a pacchi, pure un polpo che pareva uscito da un film d’animazione, ce mancava solo che m’offriva un café sott’acqua.
Prezzi onesti, niente fregature, e te porti a casa pire ‘Na bella esperienza da raccontà ad bar.
Insomma se volete fa ‘n tuffo come se deve, ve consiglio sto posto ‘co tutto er core.
Nun ve fate fregá da quelli che je piace solo chiacchierà: qua se fa sul serio, ma co' er sorriso.
E anche i consigli per esplorare la Sardegna, oltre alle immersioni, sono stati semplicemente eccellenti 🤩👌
Dove non possono controllare il meteo o la vita marina, si sono assicurati che tutto il resto fosse sotto controllo. Vogliono che vi divertiate e siate al sicuro.
Grazie Scuba Point per queste giornate divertenti e alla prossima, Paul ed Eveline
Il miglior centro immersioni di Palau, senza dubbio! 😊
Il comandante Francesco ci ha portato sui siti di immersione rapidamente ma senza farci patire il mare, è stato molto attento alle nostre esigenze e ci ha aiutati a salire e scendere dalla barca.
L’istruttore Pierrik anche lui molto competente e disponibile ci ha indicato sia grosse cernie, lucci e murene sia piccoli coralli. Si è preoccupato di verificare come stessimo e ha fatto di tutto per farci stare bene.
Tra una immersione e l’altra ci hanno offerto te caldo e brioche.
Entrambi simpatici e conoscitori della zona.
Sicuramente esperienza da ripetere!
Favolosa escursione.
Ho avuto il piacere di conoscere questo centro diving nell’ottobre scorso, quando ho fatto il brevetto Open Water. L’ambiente impeccabile, gli istruttori qualificati e l’organizzazione perfetta.
Abbiamo esplorato l’arcipelago in lungo e in largo, immergendoci in posti straordinari. L’esperienza è stata talmente positiva che ho deciso di proseguire con il brevetto Advanced.
Tornato nel grigiore di casa, non vedevo l’ora di tornare. Così, ad aprile, ho ripreso le immersioni con i corsi Deep, Nitrox e Stagna. Ogni immersione è stata un’emozione unica: tonni, cernie, barracuda, polpi… la varietà della fauna marina è straordinaria.
Un aspetto che merita particolare attenzione è la simpatia e la disponibilità dello staff. Ogni membro del team, oltre a essere competente, sa come creare un'atmosfera accogliente e amichevole, rendendo ogni immersione non solo un’esperienza formativa, ma anche piacevole e divertente.
Se cercate un centro diving dove professionalità e passione per il mare si uniscono a un ambiente familiare e accogliente, questo è il posto giusto. Non vedo l’ora di tornare per nuove avventure!
The team was friendly and professional, we felt completely safe during the entire time and saw many beautiful fishes and rock formations. We can definitely recommend!
Patrick and Francesco were great dive guides. The rest of the team was also there for us at all times and took care of everything very professionally.
Where they can’t control the weather or marinelife, they made sure everything else was under control. They want you to have a good time and be safe.
Thank you Scuba Point for these fun days and ‘till next time, Paul and Eveline
Best diving center in Palau no doubt! 😊
Luca is great, I highly recommend
I had the pleasure of getting to know this diving center last October, when I did my Open Water certification. The impeccable environment, the qualified instructors and the perfect organisation.
We explored the archipelago far and wide, immersing ourselves in extraordinary places. The experience was so positive that I decided to continue with the Advanced certification.
Back in the grayness of home, I couldn't wait to return. So, in April, I started diving again with the Deep, Nitrox and Dry courses. Each dive was a unique emotion: tuna, grouper, barracuda, octopus... the variety of marine fauna is extraordinary.
An aspect that deserves particular attention is the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. Each member of the team, in addition to being competent, knows how to create a welcoming and friendly atmosphere, making each dive not only an educational experience, but also an enjoyable and fun one.
If you are looking for a diving center where professionalism and passion for the sea combine with a familiar and welcoming environment, this is the right place. I can't wait to return for new adventures!
Super nice, helpful people who try everything to make sure you have a good time.
The communication beforehand was perfect. They answered all my questions and tried everything so it could fit into my holiday schedule.
Our instructor Sabrina couldn't have done a better job. Very conscientious, empathetic and with the necessary relaxed attitude.
I had a lot of fun and feel confident in my abilities.
I can only recommend her and the ScubaPoint team!
Great diving shop
Great diving crews
Great diving spots
what can be better?
I want to come back Scuba Point at anytime
I did the 8.30 trip with two dives. Seen about 6 x larger Zacki's, a swarm of Baracuda and some slugs. Good quality equipment. Plenty of space on the boat, everyone was very attentive. Relaxed guides. Compared to many other diving events, the day, the spots and the team are among the very good. It was really worth it.
Heiko from Mönchengladbach
Surely if you return to the area we will come to visit you for other dives.
The whole team is there to listen to you and take care of you.
Not used to the PADI Club, but a good first experience.
The Staff has a lot to do with it, don't change your vision of diving.
THANKS
Kind regards
Sylvain 👌
Davide took great photos of our dive, which I received via email shortly afterwards.
Many thanks to Sabrina and Davide, Maja, and the whole Scuba Point team!
Can't wait to come back and do it again!!
Everything, from the booking to the dive sessions, was very well organised and professional. My dive instructor Sabrina was the best you could ever imagine, as she made learning diving a fun and safe experience. She explained everything into detail in English and German and cared for the individual needs of her students. She drew attention to every detail, had answers to all our questions, was very patient and responsible. 100% recommendation!
Thank you!
The whole team at Scuba Point is super responsive, professional and very nice - we had a great 3 days of diving in Sardegna. Thank you Sabrina, Luca, Marco e Captain Lollo!
