Francesca

Hi!! I’m Kikka!!! Water has always been my element, and teaching is my passion.

With a bachelor’s degree in Physical Education and Sport, and an early start as a swimming teacher, my journey naturally led me underwater. That’s where I discovered my true calling: scuba diving.

Today, I’m lucky enough to do what I love every day, teaching people how to dive. Whether it’s helping beginners take their first breaths underwater or mentoring future pros through Divemaster and instructor-level training, my goal is always the same: to build confident, safe, and passionate divers.

I believe diving should be fun — but also done right. A good diver never stops learning, and a great one knows how to pass that knowledge on.

Let’s dive in!

Lee

I’m Lee, I began diving at 15 years old. I qualified as a PADI Instructor in 1997 and went on to become a PADI Course Director in 2005. In the same year, I also qualified as a DSAT Technical Instructor Trainer. Since then, I have become an Instructor Trainer with RAID and a TDI CCR Mod 3 (Advanced Mix Gas) Instructor on the JJ unit. More recently, I am an Instructor Trainer with SSI as well as an XR (Extended Range) Instructor at all levels. I have over 22,000 logged dives, have trained more than 5,000 recreational divers and over 1,000 instructors, and I specialise in diving in the waters around the Maltese Islands.

Francesca

Hi guys, I’m Francesca, a 29 year-old instructor from Italy.

I’m graduated in criminology and now instead of working as a private investigator, I spy on octopus and wrecks!

I did my first dive in Pantelleria 10 years ago… needless to say that the volcanic seabed have bewitched me

I tried to follow the university career but call of the sea is more stronger, and here I’m in Malta to learn everyday something new get closer to my ambition of starting tech-diving :))

Let’s go together to spot something incredible underwater!

Vicente

My name is Vicente Villarroel (Vinnie) I’m 25 years old and I’m a Chilean dive instructor with a degree in Expedition and Ecotourism Management, specializing in aquatic expeditions and activities. From a young age, I was fascinated by the nature and the mysteries it hides, and I have always seen nature as something to be explored and understood. What truly drives me is discovering the natural beauty our planet conceals, and sharing that wonder with others. This passion led me to study tourism and to begin diving five years ago. Becoming a dive instructor has allowed me not only to keep exploring the underwater world but also to inspire others to see the world from a whole new perspective—through a mask, beneath the surface.
