    Snorkeling Boat Trip from Pula
    "Highly recommended! Great weather, beautiful places to snorkel and saw a lot of fish. Also encountered divers from Orca Diving. In the meantime a rope had to be replaced, personally we didn't mind, the water was not super warm so you could warm up on the boat for a while. We were also on the water for 2.5 hours!"Isa, June 13, 2022

    Open Water Diver Course in Pula for Beginners
    "A fantastic diving instructor with an incredible wealth of experience. To my advantage, they made sure I had a German-speaking diving instructor for my Open Water Diver course. Excellent! All questions were answered thoroughly and professionally. I felt safe at all times. You also get tips and tricks on all aspects of recreational diving. The Orca Dive Center is well-equipped and seems organized. I can definitely recommend it."Gerald, May 31, 2025
