Have dived with James of Dive Away Scuba many times all round the world. Had fantastic time on every trip. All dive away staff are very friendly and helpful. The days are planned to dive even when the conditions are against you. All the equipment is top of the range. The whole time you are diving with diving away scuba you are looked. I never had a bad days diving and normally laughing from start of the trip to the end. Dive away scuba give great value for money for diving trip. 10/10 will certainly be booking another trip!!

A long weekend in Malta was my first trip with Dive Away and first time diving in Malta. I'll do both again. Great diving with a really friendly bunch and professional dive leaders. Our group had a mixture of experienced divers and a young novice and all were well catered for. Dive Away's Maltese rep, Ray was brilliant both for his hospitality and local knowledge. When unseasonally bad weather closed most dive sites Ray took us to a sheltered beach on Gozo. With no other divers in sight I was ready to make the most of a bad day but ended up on my most memorable dives. Nice one Ray and well done James. I'll be back!!

I recently went on a dive trip to Malta that was organised by James Swain and a colleague (Ray) based in Malta. I cannot praise this trip highly enough. They couldn't do enough to help, we were met at the airport promptly, taken to the hotel and given welcome drinks, where we had time to chat with everyone. All of us on the trip felt at ease instantly and we all got on really well, in fact I don't think I stopped laughing the entire holiday. The hospitality was second to none, our hosts made us feel like family and we were even welcomed in to Ray's home where he laid on a fantastic bbq.

The diving was great and well organised and even when the weather turned bad for one day we were taken to another part of the island to continue diving in the sun.

I had such a great time and have already enquired about the next trip they are organising.

To sum up... the people were very friendly and went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure we had an enjoyable holiday. I would recommend this dive centre without hesitation. If diving holidays qualified for degrees they'd get a first class honours from me!
