A private instructor joins you for five hours so you can dive from your own boat with a professional looking after the logistics. They will show you marine life and the best underwater spots around Port de Sóller, so you can enjoy the day with confidence from your own deck.
Your instructor handles the dive logistics so you can focus on the water. After a briefing they plan the drops, stay with you in the water and point out marine life along the northwest coast, using the spots that suit the conditions that day.
The five hours belong to your group alone. There is no shared centre boat and no other guests waiting to get in. The step-by-step flow is in the itinerary below.
Port de Sóller is the base for this session. We meet beside the harbour, and we confirm exactly where your instructor will join your boat.
From the bay the northwest coast opens into rocky points, seagrass and clear Mediterranean water. An instructor who knows these sites can steer your own boat day toward the drops that are working, rather than leaving you to guess from the chart.
This day is for people who already have a boat and want a professional instructor on board. You should be ready for a five-hour session and happy to follow a briefing in the water.
Tell us your diving experience, and have any certification or log details to hand. We will match the five hours to how you actually dive rather than guessing on the morning.
Looking after the marine environment is not a slogan on the quay: it is how we choose sites and how we brief groups. We have been based in Port de Sóller for more than thirty years, running a five-star PADI programme of daily boats, guided dives, snorkel trips and courses from first lessons through to professional work on Mallorca's northwest coast. Safety and small groups sit behind that same standard.
Skippers and instructors know the local reefs, caves and open water, which is why a private instructor session still feels local rather than generic. Kit is well maintained and the welcome is warm. When you want a professional on your own deck, we join you for those five hours.
The usual meeting point is Carrer de la Marina 30 in Port de Sóller, beside the harbour. We confirm where your instructor will join your boat after you book. The town is reached by road through the Sóller valley or over the mountains from Palma.
A private instructor joins you for five hours on your own boat. They look after the dive logistics, show you marine life and take you to the best underwater spots around Port de Sóller.
You provide the boat. The instructor provides the guiding, the briefings and the in-water attention so you can dive with confidence from your own deck.
The instructor is with you for five hours. That time covers briefings, dive logistics and time in the water from your boat, rather than from one of our own vessels.
How the five hours are split between briefing and diving depends on your group and the conditions that day.
Yes. This session is for people who already have a boat and want a professional instructor on board. We do not provide a boat with this session.
Your instructor joins you in Port de Sóller, handles the dive logistics and stays with the group in the water. You keep your own vessel for the five hours.
Your instructor takes care of the dive logistics so you can focus on the water. That includes briefing the group, planning the drops and showing you marine life and the best spots along the northwest coast.
They stay with you in the water and help you get the most from diving off your own boat.
The usual meeting point is Port de Sóller harbour. We'll confirm exactly where your instructor will join your boat.
Port de Sóller is straightforward to reach by road from Palma or through the Sóller valley, and the harbour is easy to find once you are in town.
Bring swimwear, a towel, sun protection and whatever you normally dive in from your own boat. If you have a certification card and recent logs, have those ready for the briefing.
Your boat should be ready to leave for a five-hour session. We'll confirm any practical details before the first morning.
This day works best if you already scuba dive and want a professional guide on your own boat. Your instructor will still shape the plan around the group.
Tell us your experience so the five hours are planned honestly rather than guessed on the morning.
Sites depend on the conditions and on what your boat can reach from Port de Sóller. Your instructor knows the local marine life and the best underwater spots along this stretch of coast.
We will not lock a named site in advance. The plan is agreed on the day so you dive where the water is working.
Wind and swell can affect diving from a private boat. If the sea is not suitable, we will contact you and look at another date for the instructor.
Safety comes first. Your instructor will not take a group in if the conditions are poor, even from your own deck.
