Diving in Piran


Located in Fiesa, directly on the most famous dive site in Slovenia, visited by thousands of divers every year. We are a small, family run diving center, with friendliest team you will find.

Our great location close to old town Piran and close to Portorož offers easy, safe and convenient diving right from the diving center. In addition, we operate a boat registered for 12 passengers and dive all the wrecks and other interesting dive sites. The boat is fast and we usually arrive to the location in just minutes. Being in Gulf of Trieste also means calm seas and no currents. We have the perfect conditions for both exciting dives and safe dive training.

From our diving center you can dive alone, or with our guidance. Our location is easily accessible both by car and by foot from old town Piran and from Portorož (Portorose). We even have parking available, exclusively for our guests.

We dive whole year (winter time on demand). We are an enthusiastic team of SSI and PADI instructors, who can’t wait to get back in the water every day.

To book or get more info, we suggest to contact us through WhatsApp. There is no pre-payment needed, we just sign you up and you are all set!

As a beginner diver with only six dives total—and my last dive having been about eight months ago—I was feeling quite nervous before getting back in the water. Sharky Diving Center & Water Sports in Fiesa, Piran made the entire experience comfortable, welcoming, and enjoyable from start to finish. Communication with Gregor was excellent. Even from halfway around the world in the United States, he was incredibly responsive and easy to reach via WhatsApp. After discussing my experience level and comfort zone, he recommended a shore dive that was perfect for me. We explored a fascinating man-made underwater car wreck and saw plenty of beautiful fish along the way. I rented all of my equipment from them since I didn't have room to bring my own gear. Everything was in excellent condition, including what appeared to be a brand-new wetsuit. The equipment was clearly well-maintained, and they had a wide range of sizes available. Gregor also helped determine exactly how much weight I would need, and he was spot on. Most importantly, I want to give a special shout-out to Aida, my dive guide. She was absolutely wonderful and made this dive such a positive experience. As someone who was feeling rusty and nervous, I appreciated her patience, professionalism, and encouragement. When I forgot a few important steps, she never made me feel embarrassed or rushed. Instead, she calmly reinforced the learning process and helped rebuild my confidence. Before entering the water, Aida reviewed simple hand signals and communication cues with me, including ways to let her know if I needed adjustments underwater. Throughout the dive, she checked on me often, stayed at a depth where I felt comfortable, and never rushed the experience. Being able to regularly signal that I was okay actually helped me relax, find my breathing rhythm, and enjoy the dive much more. Aida also had an incredible eye for marine life. She pointed out eels, crabs, and other hidden treasures tucked into the rock wall, always making sure I was able to see them too. Her kind and professional demeanor made a lasting impression, and I truly hope Sharky knows what an asset she is to their team. After the dive, I never felt rushed to leave. They offered tea and coffee, and I stayed for a while chatting with the staff about the local area, the sea life, and how the underwater ecosystem has changed over time. Everyone was friendly, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about diving. I enjoyed the experience so much that I even recommended Sharky to another American traveler I met who happened to be a diver. If you're a beginner, feeling rusty after time away from diving, or simply looking for a professional and welcoming dive center in Slovenia, I highly recommend Sharky Diving Center. Thank you, Aida, for helping make my return to diving such a positive and memorable experience

Siper ekipa. Pri njih veš, da si v dobrih rokah, res obvladajo svoje delo, obenem pa so vsi tako prijazni, da se takoj počutiš dobrodošlo.

Gestern haben wir spontan zu zweit eine Einheit Discover Scuba Diving gebucht. Ehrlicherweise hatten wir nicht erwartet, dass es so kurzfristig klappt. Aber nach kurzer Absprache per WhatsApp konnten wir bereits 3h später mit dem Kurs starten. Wir hatten den Luxus einer 1:1 Betreuung, da unser Guide Simon von einer Auszubildenen begleitet wurde. Beide waren super freundlich und haben sich viel Zeit für uns genommen. Ihnen war sehr wichtig, dass wir uns wohl und sicher fühlen und dass keine Frage offen blieb. Nach einer Theorieeinheit ging es ins Meer, wo wir uns zunächst im flachen Wasser mit der Ausrüstung und dem Tauchen an sich vertraut gemacht haben. Als das gut klappte, sind wir langsam ins tiefere Wasser geschwommen und haben bei besten Bedingungen einen Eindruck von der dortigen Unterwasserwelt bekommen. Mithilfe von Simons gutem Auge und seinen Kenntnissen des Riffs, konnten wir neben vielen Fischen und Muscheln auch Krabben und als absolutes Highlight ein Seepferdchen entdecken. Wir können Sharky Diving wärmstens empfehlen und danken Gregor und seinem Team für das tolle Erlebnis.

There is no better choice than SHARKY! I absolutely had the best diving experience here and already planning to come back! The owner and team are very kind, informative, patient, and treat you as part of their community. I was able to schedule a spontaneous spot to get my AOWD certification with no issues. They offer Padi or SSI depending on your preference. They are also the only dive center with a boat giving the advantage of see multiple shipwrecks in the area. They are stuck with me forever now 🤣 especially with the Slovenian coast being beautiful with so many things to see!

Relaxte duikzaak. Ze zijn erg behulpzaam. Je kunt gebruik maken van het duikcentrum, tegen een kleine vergoeding, terwijl je een kantduik maakt, je krijgt dan ook een briefing van de duikstek.
