We came in August and we did two great dives. The center is great with super pro staff. The diving format is great for a baptism if you want to do an initiation. We don’t have the certification yet, but we taught them that we were super comfortable and trusted us 100%, giving us more autonomy. This allowed us to enjoy the moment according to our level of ability. Thank you to the team who was super nice and accommodating.

These guys are total pros! I went with my girlfriend and they were super accommodating. We showed up a bit late in the day, but they rescheduled us for the next morning without any fuss. The dive itself was very beginner-friendly — easy and relaxed. I have my PADI certification but forgot it at home, and they were really cool about it. My girlfriend had never dived before, and she absolutely loved it. It was 100% worth it! The only downside is that the dive was a bit short — but for beginners like her, it was the perfect introduction. I’ll definitely be back to do the shipwreck dive next time. The older gentleman who owns the adventure company is a class act — super professional and clearly passionate about what he does. You’re in good hands with this team!
Great!!

Swimming near the wreck was very exciting. I recommend everyone to have this experience. AlbaniaAdventure instructors are courteous, friendly and professional. The team helped me in everything, in fact the same day I also did with them the diving at the submerged boat Palumbari. Truly an excellent adventure, in safety. The diving equipment is perfect and well maintained. Thank you Vladimir and Matteo!

I went diving at the MiG-21 wreck with dive-master Paola a few days ago. It was a fantastic experience, and Paola was amazing and also took some great photos of me! And the whole staff at the dive center is extremely friendly and service-minded! I can highly recommend their services!
A very bad experience

My name is Marco, I am 61 years old and I have been a diver since 1990 with experience of over 1,500 dives; together with 4 other diving friends we rely on Diving Albania Adventures Drymades Dhermi beach. Our group was made up of 3 instructors, 1 certified deep and 1 open water who only did one dive compared to the 5 carried out by the others because he had forgotten his certification in Italy; I won't enter into a discussion about local regulations and the safety criteria adopted, but I believe that forgetting the patent could have been managed better. One of the friends who made up the group is an Albanian boy who lives in Italy and had agreed by telephone and email to carry out two dives to the Po wreck, but once on site we were told that they do not go to the Po, contrary to what reported on the website, and they offered us a wreck of a boat of about 30 meters located a few hundred meters from the shore which we reached on a pneumatic rowing raft, an extremely poor dive in my opinion; the second on the wreck of the Mig 21 which, given the small size of the plane and the fact that there is only sand around, could be considered concluded after 5 minutes. We therefore wandered towards a depressing bench with a heart-shaped metal backrest where perhaps they expected us to take very sad selfies and then towards a white plaster statue of an equally depressing female head placed here to unnecessarily lengthen the immersion, all of which it ended by flying over areas covered with seagrass to take us to a 45 minute dive. The next day in Porto Palermo we did two dives, again in my opinion, quite poor: we entered the water from the shore, to reach the diving point we finned on the surface for 10 minutes followed by 12 minutes of underwater finning while flying over seagrass or nothingness , and equally on the return, in this way the "real" duration of the dive was very short; what do you think about using a boat to start the dive in the right place and make it more pleasant, maybe the costs weren't worth it? We paid what was asked of us, i.e. 50 euros per dive, a figure which in Italy and in all the countries where I have been lucky enough to dive is more than enough to benefit from a complete service. Finally, the last dive in Jala Bay which was a photocopy of the previous ones with a 20 minute journey between the surface and the dive to reach a rock that we circumnavigated into thin air and another 20 minutes for the return; at that point we refused to do the sixth dive which was refunded without any discussion. I will return to Albania because the country is splendid, the people are kind and hospitable, the curiosity of the dives not done has remained unchanged, but they will certainly never see me in this dive again.
Amazing
