- OmotolaGreat experienceWe went on a snorkeling safari 1/2 day excursion1 on 1 teaching with two newbiesPepo was an entertaining hostPicked us up from our hotelHe took us to various sites in Bugibba and explained the history as well which was an added bonusWould definitely recommend Divers code over and over againread moreread lessmtbsamjames
Fantastic Day Out My partner and I decided to do the full day snorkelling safari through Divers Code and we were not disappointed. We were picked up promptly from Valletta and taken to their shop where we met our guide, Pepo, and the 2 others who were in our group. We were given a detailed briefing on certain safety aspects, as well as how to snorkel properly. We then went out in their car to the first snorkelling location, stopping off on the way to look at a historical site. Pepo told us a lot about what we were seeing as we drove past and gave us the opportunity to stop if we wanted to take any photos. It was then time to start our first snorkel. I would highly recommend snorkelling with a guide; firstly, Pepo was attached to a buoy which indicated that there were snorkelers operating within the vicinity. Anyone that has been on a speed boat before will know how hard it is to see swimmers in open water. It is not uncommon to have people who have just rented the boat for a day out in the water and are not experienced (happens everywhere, not just Malta). Having this extra bit of security really helped make the both the sessions that much more relaxing and enjoyable. Secondly, Pepo pointed out different sea life and told us what they were which was nice. Lastly, on our second snorkel we swam to this amazing cave. Unfortunately there were a few jellyfish. This did not put a damper on the swim because Pepo put himself in between us and the jelly fish and made sure we were safe at all times.read moreread lessPaulinaIt was a great experience. Andrea is defined very experienced and patient. He gave us clear instructions. Talked us through every detail of health and safety. How to use the equipment etc. He also pointed out few interesting things under the water. Explained a lot about the marine life. It was very enjoyable experience. Especially for my friend for whom it was the first time. For that reason I couldn’t even think of any better teacher. Thank you Andrea.read moreread lesssanthan
Best snorkelling experience in Malta A great day out with Andrea and Pepo, if you are looking for an all encompassing snorkelling experience then the divers code is the winning choice. For first time snorkelers, Andrea and Pepo did everything to make sure we were comfortable and safe both in the water and out. What’s not advertised is their great local knowledge of both dive sites and the surrounding areas. We did the half day snorkelling safari tour Malta due to the weather but our only regret is that we could not spend the entire day in the company of these two great people. @Andrea and Pepo if you ever in South Africa please reach out.read moreread lessCindyfromNZ
Loved it ! I did the snorkelling safari, and it was definitely the highlight of my week in Malta. It was just the guide and myself. He was very professional and made sure I felt safe and comfortable the entire time. At the same time it was all very relaxed and a bit like having a friend take me out for the day. First we went snorkelling in front of where the Popeye Village is. This spot itself was amusing and stunning at the same time. The water visibility wasn't fantastic, but it was calm enough to get in close to the rocks and have a good look around.
We drove to another place (sorry, don't know the name), stopped for some lunch. After we drove a bit further, parked up and walked up a hill. The guide showed me this amazing spot, it was probably a cave at some stage, but now it was a beautiful spot where some people (not me) choose to jump into the water. We instead walked back down and snorkelled around. Thankfully the current wasn't too strong so we were able to do this. Snorkelling into this 'open air cave' was just amazing. It was the most beautiful spot I've even been in the water. I couldn't wipe the smile off my face.
After we snorkelled back, my guide drove me back to my hotel. I was tired, (sunburnt) but absolutely buzzing. Thank you again. Those memories will be safely stored away.read moreread lessElaineWe can thoroughly recommend a snorkelling Safari with Divers Code. My family - 2 adults and 2 kids - were collected from our hotel, promptly, by Pepo who then took us on a guided tour of the island. Pepo had a vast knowledge of the history of Malta and the various places of interest where we stopped and entertained us with historical facts and stories. After a very interesting tour, we embarked on our snorkelling experience which we greatly enjoyed. Pepo explained all safety procedures, had us all kitted out appropriately and then led us all out into the water. A huge thank you goes to Pepo for looking after us all so well - particularly our 9-year-old daughter who was a little nervous. Pepo was very kind, friendly, capable and interesting and he ensured we were happy at all times during this trip, gave us tips of other places we may like to visit during our holiday, and dropped us back to our hotel afterwards. Thank you for making our holiday very special.read moreread less - HelenAndrea is a really personable host who took myself and my husband on a half day snorkelling and land excursion. As a first time snorkeler, Andrea explained everything clearly and put me at ease. It was an incredible experience, one which we will both remember. The visit to a few scenic places afterwards was also very interesting. Highly recommended!read moreread lessBrBr02
Snorkeling I had a great half day snorkeling safari with Divers code. We explored the countryside of Malta by car and afterwards we went snorkeling in a beautiful bay. Despite my last minute request it was still possible to go snorkeling, I really appreciated that. I fully recommend this trip 😀read moreread lessDInesh
Great Day at Anchor Bay (Popeye Village) We had a very nice snorkeling tour with Andrea. In the morning he came to pick us from Sliema, and he was there right on time. He was very friendly and gave us lot of information about life in Malta as well. We had a more than 1 hr snorkeling tour and he took us for various parts around the Anchor bay. We felt very safe and guided for the whole time. Enjoyed it very much and recommend highly for any one.read moreread lessCiara
Great guided snorkelling Andrea took us on a guided snorkelling (half day). He was very laid back and friendly and made us feel very comfortable. It was our first time snorkelling and he made sure we were okay. We were taken to a great snorkelling site, as well as some cool places on the land that aren't very touristy which we wouldn't have got to see otherwise. The trip was very enjoyable and great value for money.read moreread less - Lau
Underwater adventure We booked the Full day in Gozo with Divers Code. We were picked up at our apartment by Giovanni, the Italian Ironman and taken to 2 lovely snorkeling spot on Gozo. It was an amazing experience and everybody were enjoying themselves enourmously.

Perfect activity to relax I had an amazing time traveling around the island learning about the history and the geology which makes up the islands coast and caves. The weather & water was clear and warm which made it perfect for viewing the sights. This is a great activity to just relax and swim around looking at fishes and other marine life.
Andrea was an amazing guide and I could not have had a better day.read moreread less - KatrienDeMulder
Must do when in Malta We had a wonderful day snorkeling. I did the snorkeling safari with two friends of mine. We were guided by Giovanni and he's the best. He gave us good instructions and has many stories to tell us about. We really enjoyed it. Definitely the highlight of our Malta trip. I would highly recommend it to anyone and will come back.
Keep up the great work! Thanks again!read moreread lessPartysara
Fantastisk snorkeltur! Ska du snorkla på Malta? Då rekommenderar jag verkligen det här. Jag har varit med om så många mer oseriösa företag särskilt i Asien som bara ger ut snorkel-och dykarutrustning och kastar ut en på öppet hav. Det här var något helt annat och jag kände mig så trygg.
En privat snorkeltur med bara guide och vår familj med två barn på 8 och 12 år. Instruktören Pepo hämtade oss vid hotellet och tog oss till sin shop där vi fick en genomgång och fick prova ut passande utrustning. Det var lärorikt och kändes seriöst. Sen åkte vi runt till några olika platser på gammaldagsa småvägar för att välja snorkelställe. Instruktören valde bort ett med för höga vågor vilket gjorde mig trygg.
Väl på plats hade vår instruktör med sig en slags flytkudde att hålla i från början och en flytleksak till min 8-åriga son som aldrig tidigare snorklat. Sedan gav vi oss iväg på en fantastisk tur under vattnet och såg många olika fiskar. Instruktören var lugn och kunnig och det gick mycket bra. Han tog också bilder som vi ska få på mail vilket uppskattas.read moreread less - EtainThis was easily one of the highlights of our trip. Communication before hand was perfect, Andrea was quick to reply to messages and very informative. He was very experienced and has a great knowledge of the local marine wildlife. We would definitely do it again if we go back to Malta. Couldn't recommend this more.read moreread lessMarcoAndrea is a super guide. We were poor swimmers and had some struggle with the Equipment at the beginning but Andrea was calm and helpful so we could enjoy the snorkelling. He is very friendly and he could also give us some other tips as a Malta-local. I can only recommend Andrea and the snorkelling!read moreread lessDeniseI booked the run the day before and Pepo got in touch with me to confirm despite there was nothing to discuss since all the information was already there.
He offered other tips for Malta as well, but unfortunately this was already my last day.
I regret not having booked Pepo before since he would have given me good advice in particular for running on that island (not to easy, since it i hilly, hot and there is quite some traffic^^). We had a very good time and ran through the city together. You can decide how much you want to run and how much you want to talk. Pepo is a ultra runner with heart and soul and it was a pleasure to chat with him.
It is definitely worth it getting up that early since after 8-9am it is already quite hot (even in September) and crowded. I definitely recommend booking that experience!

Great day of snorkeling! We were on a snorkeling safari tour on Malta with Giovanni and we had the best time! He showed us some remote places with few tourist around, which was great because there are a lot of tourist on Malta in august! Giovanni makes sure everyone feels comfortable, and is genuinely a nice guy. Would recommend anyone who’s looking to go snorkeling on Malta, to book a day with Diver’s code.
We are already planning a new trip with them next week!read moreread less - Vitoria
Couldn't recommend more! My partner and I did the introduction to free diving half day course with Andrea at divers code, and it was the best thing we did in Malta! My partner is nervous in the sea and Andrea and the other man (I can't remember his name!) made such an effort to prepare him and make him feel safe. The briefing bit of the course was interesting and gave us new and valuable knowledge, and the practical was fun and a good level of challenge. We also booked really last minute but they were able to slot us in, and it was just the two of us with our instructor.
We plan to go back to Malta to do another course with them in the future.
Thank you Divers Code!read moreread lessLouisaWe had the most amazing time during our full day snorkeling trip to Gozo! It was definitely the best experience of our vacation in Malta.
Andrea has been super friendly and provided the best experience to each 4 of us, even though we had different levels and expectations for the day. From very beginner to more experienced, Andrea provided tailored aquatic mentoring for each one of us, in addition to selecting the best spots to go according to weather and sea conditions.
As opposed to many diving sites in Malta, Divers Code is really specialized in snorkeling and freediving, so if it's what you want to do I fully recommend them.
I'd definitely go back and try some freediving 🙂
Thanks again Andrea!read moreread lessHanneI went for a hike with Pepo on the western side of Malta, along the coast near Fomm ir - Rih. This hike is perfect if you like to walk a little more off road and explore, rather than walking a clearly marked path from A-B. The coast on this part of Malta is more wild and untouched than other parts, and I really loved it. Make sure to wear shoes with good grip, besides that Pepo will make sure you feel safe and well taken care. of.read moreread lessiradababayeva2016
Just perfecto!!! Having not so pleasant memory about scuba diving i had 2 years ago in Indian ocean (i was in panic and felt uncomfortable), I approach with extreme caution even to snorkeling. But Andrea somehow changed it!!! Every moment i felt uncomfortable (quite strong waves were during 2 days in Popeye village and Blue Grotto), Andrea eyes were on me and it made me absolutely relaxed and helped to enjoy a lot!
I highly recommend Andrea as a professional and careful instructor!!!
I will always look back on my time there with extremely fond memories!read moreread lessAnnalisa
Il mare di Malta presentato da ottime guide! Ottimo materiale, bellissimi posti, sicurezza al massimo, gentilezza e simpatia! La situazione ideale per visitare le coste e il mare maltese!
Affidarsi a Divers Code significa vivere al meglio il tempo che si trascorre a Malta: che siano pochi giorni o vari mesi. Consiglio a chi cerca la bellezza di lasciarsi guidare da Andrea!!!
Grazie di tutto!!!

Do it! Excellent! I was trying to pack too much into one week in Malta (because it's that kind of place!) and didn't contact Divers Code until the night before I wanted to go snorkelling, here was response waiting for me in the morning. I wasn't able to join the safari that had already been booked, but communication was excellent and Pepo accommodated me as a single traveller for a couple of hours in Buggiba.
Safe, professional, knowledgeable and great craic ('fun' - I'm Irish!)
The only thing I would do differently would be to prioritise a full days snorkelling safari over anything else.
Highly recommended
Thank you!read moreread lessNadegeThis was a great experience. As a novice snorkeler, Andrea made me feel very safe. He took time to explain in detail what to expect and how to properly wear our snorkel equipment.Therefore, my experience was enhanced. He genuinely cares for his customers safety and comfort. He also seems to care for the ocean as well, as I witnessed him cleaning out garbage during our swim! I rate this experience A+.read moreread lessRichWe had a great morning with Andrea. We got a good snorkel in and didn’t have to go on one of those big party boats. He had great equipment and was very warm and welcoming.

Before our arrival, Andrea and Pepo answered our questions precisely. And our guide was Pepo. I was a bit nervous for my first snorkeling experience since I didn't swim well. After Pepo's instructions step by step, I felt relaxed in the water! Though the weather wasn't ideal during our stay, we enjoyed our snorkeling with Pepo. Most important of all, safety instruction and equipments are all included. Pepo and Andrea will provide their professional suggestion according to your request. And we also have sight-seeing in the castle and Popeye Villige. Pepo introduced the history of the landmarks clearly. We will definitely book the trip from Divers Code for our visit in Malta next time!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 😉read moreread lessCarrieRunning around Valletta with Pepo was a great experience! I was able to see the city in an entirely different way that I wouldn't have on my own or on a typical tour. And he has a wealth of knowledge about Malta's history, shared info about the culture, and made some excellent recommendations for the rest of our stay.
I was slighly apprehensive about going on this run alone in a strange place with an unknown person, but any concerns were immediately gone - I always felt safe and highly recommend to all visitors to Valletta!read moreread lessCarsten

Yet you know what you need to know for the trip.2) safety is paramount, Pepo always keep an eye for us on boats and dangerous sea creatures. 3) excellent knowledge on the landscape(seascape?), He shown us hidden items on the seabed that we would otherwise missed.4) he also brought us to some historical landmarks on our way to the dive spot.Overall, time well spent!read moreread lessAustinI had an amazing time traveling around the island learning about the history and the geology which makes up the islands coast and caves.
