      Great trip with professional leadership.
      We do recommend this experience. Adam and his mate did a wonderful job of making everyone comfortable and feel safe. We were a group of 8 people and was so well taken care of. The waters wasn't spectacular, but it was OK.

      Great time snorkelling
      We had a great time snorkelling. The tour guides were friendly and attentive and happy to help out with anything. We got to decide ourselves how we wanted to spend our time as they also offered if we decide to get out the water early we can walk around and explore the island. Made the experience feel a lot more personalised as well rather than just a set routine. Overall very enjoyable experience - will definitely come back again.

      Fantastic family snorkelling experience
      Thank you for a wonderful family experience. The equipment provided was good and fitted us well. The children loved the boat ride and the island was fantastic. The guides took as on a great swim where we could see lots of fish and sea urchins. Sadly there were no photos were available for us to take home. On the whole we would recommend this experience for a family with 2 teenagers.

      Fantastic diving experience in Tabarca!
      Very professional , safe and friendly. We have tried different places in the area and Scuba Elx is - without any doubt - the best diving centre in Santa Pola. All dives from the boat. NITROX available , different sizes of diving cylinders available up to 15L to make your dive last longer. And even more - are you a “super pro” accredited technical diver?. Then, Scuba Elx is your place - technical dives available up to 56 mtrs. I can’t recommend them more.

      Amazing experience
      We took the diving baptism course. We were 4 people and 3 instructors came with us. The most remarkable part is how professional they were: underwater they showed very intuitively what to do, asked if everything was ok, and so on, and we felt always safe. First they gave us the equipment, then on the way to the diving place they explained everything. We went underwater, I believe for almost 1h, then up again and back to Santa Pola. We went up to 14.5 m down, and saw quite a lot of species that they had previously shown from a book. You can even go if you cannot swim, they will just help you move around. Overall it was a super positive experience, we will for sure repeat next time we come to Santa Pola!!

      Diving Tabarca island, Santa Pola.
      The waters around Tabarca island form the oldest marine reserve in Spain, providing a good mix of dives with good fish life. I like to Dive with Scuba ELX. The company is operated by a local family who have excellent knowledge of the dive sites and can provide equipment, training and boat hire. Staff speak English and are helpful.

    Scuba Elx treats you as a licensed diver, responsinle for the dive end to end. They are ready to help with everything you can not solve, yet thwy will not do it furst hand before you tried it. Thei will have am eye on everyone onder the water, yet without papmepeing you, instead giving you a chance to have control on your actions,wgich is helpful, so be ready to share with them your needs or intentions for the dive
    Hector is an exoerienced and hands on guide, with a sense of humour and accepring what cand be changed in certain circumstances. On the way back he reviewed some learning points with the less experienced divers (tirist dibers that dive a couple if times/year). Good dibe spits, the Groupers land in particular! Not rushed up, plan everything to give best chances for all, including a safety cilinder in the water for tjose less experiencesd, so that they will not spoil the whole group. Very good exoerience, strongly rec!
