On a recent holiday we visited Gozo and my friends car who keeps his car in malta to use on holiday/ diving trips broke down with a broken clutch cable . I suggested we go to see Mark at St Andews dive shop to see if he could recommend a good mechanic . Well to cut a long story short Mark the governor was so helpful he arranged his mechanic to fix the problem and the car was fixed within four hours . We were delighted as we were only on gozo for one day and were due to fly out a few days later so thankyou Mark and his mechanics !! On my many visits to Gozo the St andrews dive shop is always busy and customer friendly . If your planning a diving trip give that diving shop a goVerifiedEvercurios2023-09-07Great days diving We had the best refresher day with st Andrew’s dive centre.We hadn’t dived for 15 years or more and we eeee a little apprehensive but that evaporated very quickly. We were set up so just the two of us went out with our dive master Erika in xlendi bay.She really helped us to feel comfortable and in control and we had full faith in her. She obviously new the bay well and gave us a beautiful experience pointing out various fish and squid then ultimately taking us through the ledge. She went above and beyond by taking many great photos of us diving and the things we saw which she sent to us as a memento.Mark in the office was reliable and well organised and all the team were super friendly.Really recommendVerifiedDamian M2023-09-03Dive & tour with Gozo’s most experienced and best! My wife and I booked a private boat tour and scuba dive with Mark Busuttil, the owner of St Andrew’s Divers Cove, Xlendi, on the island of Gozo, Malta. What a fantastic day we had. Nothing was too hard for Mark. He is an excellent boat skipper, amazing tour guide and superb dive master.Mark took us to the best sites around Gozo and Comino, steered me through an amazing cave dive, and showed us why these islands are so popular with tourists from all over the world.Thank you Mark! We loved our day with you.Regards,Damian and Michelle.Verifiedslmonline2023-08-06Fantastic two weeks of guided dives While staying on Gozo at the Kempinski, two weeks with my wife, I did 5 days of diving, two dives each time. St Andrews Divers was a very good school and guide centre, they took us all over the island to a variety of dive sites and we're good guides. Equipment hire was good, modern and no issues. Happy to recommend them.
