About

Tossa Divers has occupied the same spot on Mar Menuda beach since 2003 — directly on the seafront at Avda Mar Menuda 4, where gear-up and water entry are separated by a short walk across the sand. The center has operated as a PADI 5-Star Instructor Development Center throughout, meaning the full PADI pathway runs here: from a first try dive at the shore's edge through Open Water, Advanced, Rescue, Divemaster, and into Instructor Development Courses.

The beachfront position is the center's defining practical advantage. Shore dives launch from the Sa Banyera entry directly below the terrace. There is no shuttle, no waiting for a van, and no coordination overhead. Boat dives are also available for the wider Tossa de Mar site catalog.

Beyond courses, the center offers guided night dives (EUR 50), DPV scooter experiences (EUR 55), freediving courses, underwater photography sessions, and 90-minute snorkeling tours for non-diving companions. A 10-dive package at EUR 175 suits returning divers who want the best per-dive rate. The try-dive-plus-meal package with Can Gol restaurant folds a Mediterranean lunch into the first dive experience.

Facilities have been renovated to match the center's level of operation: separate changing rooms with hot showers, a large terrace with sea views, and a dedicated equipment rinsing area. A solar energy system covers more than 60% of the center's electricity use — an investment in sustainability that distinguishes Tossa Divers within the local center landscape.

What Divers Say

4.9 across 500+ Google reviews is the headline number. The pattern in those reviews points consistently at the instructors: professional, patient with first-timers, and attentive when families bring children into the water. First-time divers describe their baptism dive as memorable and low-stress. Families come back because the staff tracked every member of the group, adults and children alike.

Returning divers write about the team with warmth rather than formality. The phrase "like family" recurs in multi-year regulars who make Tossa their annual dive destination. The beachfront location draws its own repeat praise: guests note they can gear up, dive, and be back on the terrace in the time other centers spend in transit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Tossa Divers located directly on the beach?
Yes. The center sits on the seafront at Cala Mar Menuda at Avda Mar Menuda 4. You gear up on the terrace and walk straight to the water. Shore dives launch from the Sa Banyera entry point immediately in front of the premises — no van or boat ride required.
What PADI courses does Tossa Divers offer?
The complete PADI recreational and professional curriculum. Recreational courses run from Scuba Diver (EUR 250, max 12 m) through Open Water, Advanced Open Water, Rescue, and Divemaster (EUR 590, 6 weeks). The center's 5-Star IDC status means it also runs Instructor Development Courses for candidates with 100+ dives.
Can I try scuba diving at Tossa Divers without certification?
Yes. A try dive (bautizo de buceo) starts at EUR 69 with a private instructor and equipment included. The Premium version at EUR 95 adds HD photos and video. There is also a try-dive-plus-meal package for EUR 95, combining the experience with a Mediterranean lunch at nearby Can Gol restaurant.
Does Tossa Divers offer DPV scooter dives?
Yes. A guided DPV experience costs EUR 55 and lets certified divers cover more of the rocky seabed around Tossa in a single dive. A full DPV Specialty course (EUR 200) is also available for divers who want the qualification.
What does a night dive cost at Tossa Divers?
Guided night dives run EUR 50, with lighting equipment provided. A Night Diver specialty course is EUR 180 and includes multiple night dives. The Mar Menuda beachfront location makes late evening departures straightforward — no transport coordination needed.
Is Tossa Divers open in winter?
Yes, year-round. Weekday hours are 09:00 to 18:30 and weekends 08:30 to 19:00. Winter diving on the Costa Brava typically brings calmer seas, better visibility, and quieter dive sites than the peak summer months.
How does Tossa Divers' renewable energy commitment work?
The center runs a solar energy system that covers more than 60% of its electricity consumption. This places it among the higher-adopting dive operations in Tossa de Mar. The installation is part of a broader renovation of the center's premises, which also added separate changing rooms with hot showers and a large terrace.
