Area Info
Marbella is seen as the playground of Europe's rich and elite. The centre is located in the heart of the beautiful Costa Del Sol directly on the beach at Atalaya Park Hotel offering great views to Gibraltar and across to the Moroccan coast.
Pro Dive at Happy Divers is the only PADI National Geographic centre in Spain and offers a range of courses from Bubble maker to PADI IDC Instructor development courses. All divers are with Free NITROX for those divers qualified in its use.
Because of the close proximity of the Atlantic Ocean we benefit from Mediterranean conditions, but the cross-over of open ocean. In the waters around Marbella the type of marine life you can see such as Thousands of Scorpion Fish, Giant Sea Fingers, Conger and Moray Eels, Sun Fish, Giant Sea Fans, Mediterranean Trigger Fish reefs covered in Orange Star Coral and of course many Giant Spiny Spider Crabs plus hundreds of other species of fish and coral. The marine life you will see varies, depending of time of the year.
We also have some massive wrecks located at Torre Marbella". You will find 3 wrecks quite close to each other at a depth of only 11 meters. Here you can dive on either by boat or even doing a shore dive. Two of the wrecks are old cargo ships with a steel body, the are still quite intact and run for a length of about 60 meters each.
