Cala Egos, Mallorca

Already offering SSI and CMAS/ Barakuda, they have become a BSAC centre because of the increasing numbers of UK, tourists and divers coming to the centre.

Petro Divers offer now BSAC Clubs training packages ideal for OD and SD training.
The centre can offer early season training packages for Clubs with students that have completed pool and theory training can complete the open water dives in conditions similar to UK summer diving, as the water is a cool 14-15 degrees, so need dry suit or full wetsuits, but vis is great and there is loads of life.
Then come again and enjoy the to the 25-27 of the summer months for diving holidays or more training.

The diving is scenic, with a variety of walls and reefs.  A nice swim through at one site (Little Reef) plus a cavern that is freely accessible for scuba divers as there is a large entrance plus at only 6-8m deep is fine for newly qualified divers and they can see stalactites stalagmites and full columns.

The centre can provide full sets of equipment and wetsuits, dry suits would need to be brought with you.

Many of the sites are ideal training sites offering plateau depths of 6, 10, 12 15 and 20m at most of their site.

All centres in Spain are required to have a centre guide in the water with customers on dives, Petro Divers are aware of the BSAC's buddy training and for pairs and groups can provide typical club style diving.

EasyJet luggage is good flight option especially if booked early, together with their sports option and ‘unlimited’ weight in hand luggage.  PetroDivers will pick up groups from the airport in mini bus and can provide accommodation.

BSAC's only centre in Mallorca Petro Divers is offering all BSAC members who visit in June a discount of 15% on dives and 10% on goods.
