About
You can find our dive center at the southeast coast of Majorca, in Cala d’Or in the Cala Serena, approx. 55 km (34 miles) from the capital Palma de Majorca. The dive base is situated above the Cala Serena, approx. 150 meters (500 feet) from the sandy beach of the bay. The well-known Robinson Club Cala Serena is only a few feet away. It is approx. 3 km (2 miles) to the Cala d’Or center with its touristic bustle: just enough to enjoy diving in peace, but also close enough to join the (night-) life if you want to (map of Cala d’Or). Cala d’Or is known for it’s fashionable Marina in which the white fleet is anchored and invites you to daydream. You can join the Mediterranean nightlife, but also visit Majorca’s treasures in the outback.

Just back from an amazing experience... I've scuba dived before... before children!
Now with a 14, 12 yr old and my wife who have never had the pleasure, we went back to the company that gave us a wonderful family memory 2 years ago when we did their cave excursion (outstanding).
They are totally great, professional with personality and humour.
I sit here with a glass in hand, having with MDS created yet another family memory that will be something we look back on as a defining family experience.
Thank you to you all, we'll be back.
Highly recommend
Cheers

I did my fifth dive and this was the second place where I dove. When I went for the dive I couldnt clear my ears. They didnt pay that much attention because there were other people for the first time. There was no time for me to slowly clear my ears because they give a sign that I had to come their way. I felt really uncomfortable. In the end we needed to swim back to the coast because it was not safe to stay this close to the surface. If I got a few more minutes to clear my ears I felt like I could make it but there was no communication possible.

Very friendly and professional staff. Easy booking via WhatsApp, felt very welcome when we got there, efficient reception, paperwork and top notch equipment rental. Went out first day with Chris via beach entry, second day with Frank on the RIB.
Smooth, professional and helpful all the way, never in a hurry, no stress diving with both guides.
We’ll certainly be back next time we’re in the area. Thanks guys for two wonderful dives!

I had the pleasure to upgrade my Scuba Diver to Open Water Diver (OWD) with Frank. The experience compared to the Italian dive school where I had done my Scuba Diver were very good and at MDS much more professional. The equipment is very modern and well maintained. The atmosphere at the base is very familiar and friendly.
The exercises and dives were explained very well and all questions were always answered patiently. I felt very well taken care of at all times.
Organization of the base also very good. Communication and scheduling with Caro in advance went smoothly.
The upgrade from Scuba Diver to OWD (incl. 4 dives of which one from the boat, theory, insurance, equipment) has cost a total of 199 € - a fair price in my opinion.

having had a brief go at scuba diving when I was 12 years old, I had initially hoped to try it again on a recent holiday to Mallorca but unfortunately I came away with a missed opportunity, my mother booked us both on the so called "fun dive " and from then on we assumed rightly that our session would still go ahead but unfortunately things took a turn for the worst on the day we where supposed to be diving. no sooner had we signed the necessary forms we where apologetically told that we would be unable to dive due to a lack of "doctor's notes" which is apparently on their website but evidently not included in the publicity posters which are pasted around the beaches in cala d'or and the surrounding area, why on earth hasn't someone noticed this before now !. although my poor old mother did her up most best to try and get around this annoying caveat it was sadly all to no avail and we ended up being dropped back to where we had been picked up from which was just outside the booking booth down the road from our hotel, I consequently spent the rest of the afternoon feeling upset and angry that I had missed out on something I have been wanting to do again for the last ten years all because of some medical information that I didn't even know you needed !, consequently I don't think we will be returning and I have instead taken the reasonable step of having another go at home with a club who actually appreciate people who are keen to learn and actually give them a chance to get in the water and give it a go!.
tip- if you do go with this dive school be sure to get these forms looked before you leave home as they will more or less throw you out if you don't have them.

From start to finish the service was excellent and nothing was too much trouble. We had no diving experience. Everyone was so friendly, Frank, Dave, Karolina and the rest of team are the nicest , and all the instructors are so experienced and helpful! You can tell they want you to have the best experience. It took about 3hrs from start to finish, the dry land training was very clear so we knew what to do. The beach was beautiful. You have to try this experience! We will definitely be going back. I have been celebrating my birthday so it’s the highlight of our holiday!

The most amazing part of our entire holiday! From start to finish the service was excellent and nothing was too much trouble. We had no diving experience and our age range was 12-41 years so quite a mix. Everyone was so friendly, Caro & Dave who own it are the nicest couple, and all the instructors are so experienced and helpful! You can tell they want you to have the best experience. It took about 3hrs from start to finish, the dry land training was very clear so we knew what to do. The beach was beautiful, the perfect location and then the dive itself was about 45mins. Wow wow wow! You have to try this experience! We will definitely be going back, amazing value for money and like I said the highlight of our holiday!

What a brilliant experience. My first time diving and couldn't recommend this company highly enough .Roughly an hour spent on safety and training before going to the beach for our dive accompanied by instructor Frank, there is one instructor to two people diving. The dive was a brilliant experience and watched and coached by Frank all the way . I will certainly be back .

Toxic ambience and staff, no need to elaborate...
My advice is to stay away from this diving school!

Hi
My family and I are visiting next week. I would love for my children aged 5 and 9 to learn water sports. Do you teach children?
Look forward to hearing from you
