Absolutely fantastic dive team!! We had an absolutely incredible experience with Mario, Pepe, and the entire Aqua Element team. During our stay, we joined them for two snorkeling trips and one scuba diving trip, and every single outing was outstanding. Our groups included several friends, and everyone came away saying it was one of the highlights of the trip. What impressed us the most was how wonderful they were with our 7-year-old, who was snorkeling for the very first time. Mario and Pepe were endlessly patient, kind, and encouraging, helping to build confidence while making the experience fun and unforgettable. Under the water, they are exceptional guides. You always know they are watching out for everyone, pointing out marine life, and making sure each person is comfortable and safe. Of all the dive operators we've been with around the world, Aqua Element is by far the safest and most professional team we've ever dived with. Beyond their professionalism, what makes Aqua Element truly special is the atmosphere they create. From the moment you arrive, they make you feel like part of their small community rather than just another customer. That warmth, combined with their expertise and genuine love for the sea, makes every trip memorable. If you're visiting the San Giorgio area and want to experience the beautiful coastline, islands, and crystal-clear waters, don't hesitate to book with Aqua Element. We can't recommend Mario, Pepe, and the entire team highly enough.

Esperienze da vivere. Per chi ama l'estate, i suoi colori ed i suoi sapori, il mare, l'ignoto, il vento tra i capelli ed i tramonti mozzafiato, non posso far altro che augurare quest'esperienza che cambia la vita e il modo di vedere le cose. Accomunata da persone speciali che amano il loro lavoro, Giuseppe e Mario: Giuseppe capace di spiegare per ore ed ore le bellezze della fauna locale, le competenze che servono per vivere a pieno l'esperienza. L'acqua è la sua casa e lo si vede dalla destrezza con cui è capace di muoversi in tale ambiente. Mario, attraverso la sua calma, pazienza e meticolosità è capace di regalarti un' avventura travolgente. La peculiarità di questo diving è la familiarità: sentirsi a casa solo con un minimo contatto. Un'esperienza sublime, capace di cambiarti la vita, ridefinendo le tue paure e il tuo modo di vedere il mare! Da provare una volta nella vita!!!

Lipari e Vulcano in barca Durante il soggiorno a Gioiosa Marea nel villaggio resort di Capo Calavà, io e mio marito abbiamo prenotato un giro in barca con Aqua Diving Element a Lipari e Vulcano. Uscita giornaliera ben organizzata in ogni dettaglio, bagni in mare in posti incantevoli. Maria Vittoria e Mario sono stati delle ottime guide non hanno tralasciato alcun aspetto dal racconto storico a quello mitologico, alla guida in acqua fino a quello conviviale e godereccio con frutta e prosecco al tramonto….veramente disponibili e gentilissimi, grazie😍. Consiglio a tutti questa esperienza

The Perfect Place to Get Your PADI Certification We had an outstanding experience with Aqua Diving Centre in Sicily while acquiring our PADI Open Water certification, and we cannot recommend them highly enough. From the very beginning, the focus on safety was absolutely paramount. The skill, expertise, and professionalism of the staff made us feel safe and confident at all times. They never hesitated to cancel dives when weather conditions were not optimal — a clear safety-first philosophy that we deeply appreciated. The team — Pepe (Giuseppe), Mario, and Vicky — was exceptional. We first contacted Aqua Diving Centre in January to plan our certification for the summer and received an immediate reply with clear, helpful information. Communication was excellent throughout. When we later opted for the PADI e-learning materials, they were sent to us immediately after payment. We initially enrolled in Scuba First, and Pepe explained that we could continue directly to the Open Water course if we wished. Based on our very positive first impression of the instructors and the diving centre, we decided to go all the way — and we are very glad we did. Pepe and Vicky made absolutely sure that we fully understood the curriculum and the underlying principles of diving. They were always open to questions and took the time to explain everything thoroughly whenever needed. There was never any rush — again, safety always came first. The diving centre is perfectly located right by the beach, with easy and convenient parking, which made the logistics very comfortable. The beach in Patti is outstanding, and diving directly from such a beautiful location was a real highlight. The dives to the Small Rock and the Large Rock were absolutely fantastic and offered an unforgettable introduction to the underwater world. We stayed in San Gregorio by Capo d’Orlando, while the diving centre is located in San Giorgio near Patti. Pepe even offered for staff members to pick us up and drive us to the dive centre, as they lived close to where we were staying. This gesture truly reflects the genuine hospitality and friendliness we experienced throughout our time with them. Thanks to the truly outstanding crew at Aqua Diving Centre, we had a fantastic experience, felt completely safe, and were introduced to the wonderful world of diving in the best possible way. We give Aqua Diving Centre and their crew our highest recommendations.
