Experience the thrill of underwater explorations

This one-day program spans roughly three hours. It starts with an instructor briefing you on equipment usage, breathing techniques, underwater locomotion, and signaling methods.

Next, we’ll equip you with the necessary diving gear and transport you to the beach for your first dive, also known as ‘the christening dive.’ This will always be supervised and won’t exceed a depth of 12 meters or last beyond 40-45 minutes. Post a thrilling underwater expedition that promises to linger in your memory, we’ll escort you back to the center where facilities for a refreshing shower and dressing up are available.

Great instructor and wonderful experience! - We drove into Tossa de Mar while on our way up the coast to Cadaques. The folks who run this place are awesome, providing good instruction and guidance before, during, and after the dive. It's a fantastic value, and a great way to see a different part of Spain ;) We went in October, and the water was just fine.

Nice and precise - I had one dive and afterwards a fun dive with my kids. The material is good the instructions clear and the support good. The dive with the kids (13) was well explained and a very friendly and relaxed dive for the kids. I dive often somewhere and for me was tassasub as it should be! 3 persons one one instructor, well organized on land and in the water. Thanks Tossasub Team

Great Beach Dive - I have been diving in Tossa De Mar since 2005 and have come back and dived most years since. The staff are friendly and the diving is surprisingly good. The Dive centre is 5 min walk along the sea front to dive site. Its great for beginners and has something to offer the more experienced diver. Only down side was the amount of weed about this year. See you again in 2018.

Great Diving Experience! - All OK! Had a fantastic diving and learning experience here. We were 2 friends doing the open water diver course. We had done the theory part online before coming and so were able to complete the course within 3 days. A big shoutout to our instructor Mark, who was extremely professional, helpful and patient and just a great trainer. Got comfortable from the get go and were able to finish the course easily. The location is great as well, 5 mins from the beach in Tossa De Mar and all the other staff are really helpful, specially Arlet at the counter. The shop facilities and equipment are top notch and safe to dive. Would definitely recommend anyone looking to learn to try it here.

Nice staff, good equipment and facilities but... - The beach dive was great and well worth it - fun to walk in through all the people on the beach and nice underwater scenery - chasms, moray eel, sea horses. The boat dive was not good. With a high wind my daughter got sea sick and could not dive. But more importantly, to reduce the risk of sea sick the dive leader asked everyone to quickly enter water once the boat had anchored. He did not check that people had done buddy checks. I luckily stopped my son from going over - his air was off, his BCD was deflated and his waist belt was undone. Not good! Basic PADI is to do buddy check, especially when people are rushing to get going to avoid being sea sick. Also you must walk from there car park to the beach fully equipped, walking through the sand - this was hard work, my daughter barely managed it.
