Location/accessibility:
We are located in the northern Adriatic Sea on the island of Krk. A comfortable journey by car, camper, Flixbus, etc. is possible 24/7 days a week, as the island is connected to the mainland by a bridge (distances e.g. from Munich 580 km, Villach 270 km). In addition, there is also an airport (RJK) on the island (only 1.15 hours flight time within Europe). The Mediterranean town of Baska is one of the most popular holiday resorts in the northern Adriatic with a 3.5 km long beach, crystal clear sea, perfect infrastructure and varied leisure activities. A large variety of accommodation options such as apartments, hotels and campsites as well as all amenities for a relaxing and varied holiday are within easy walking distance in the immediate vicinity. Therefore, the town has the best occupancy figures in years.

Our philosophy:
As a family-run dive center, we always focus on "class instead of quantity" with the highest quality and the best service. This means: diving trips in small groups with individual support for safe dives in a relaxed atmosphere. With our processes adapted to this and efficiently designed processes, we secured economic success for long-term existence and financial security in old age. The current base operation was always designed as a seasonal business for the period May to September with a range of versatile dives for certified recreational divers (land, boat, wreck, night) as well as for diving training from beginners to professionals. As an operationally active owner couple with a small team, we set standards in the organization of a seasonal business of our size while at the same time securing our year-round livelihood.

Guest structure:
There are mainly guests from Europe with a focus on Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Required languages are German and English (both for the guests and for authorities etc.). Croatian is an advantage but not mandatory.

Growth opportunities:
The town of Baska has the longest beach on the island of Krk and thus mega potential for the expansion of DSD/introductory diving and beginner courses. In addition, there is the possibility to set up the TEC and/or apnea area, as the diving area is suitable for this...

This dive center is an absolute beauty! When you enter it, it really has that wow factor! The place is huge and has endless possibilities.

The dive center, located in the lively town of Los Llanos de Aridane, is a thriving dive center where divers of varying levels enjoy nature above and below water all year round. Many visitors also come for snorkeling, take a taster dive or complete a diving course.

The dive sites are easily accessible and since the volcanic eruption in 2021 , new dive sites have emerged that can still be discovered. Almost all dive sites are accessible from the shore, with an easy entry and thus suitable for young and old, experienced and inexperienced divers. There are also a number of dive sites with slightly more difficult entry, which is a challenge for experienced divers.

And boat dives are offered, for diving at the new lava delta and on the - inaccessible from land - steep northwest coast with many small caves and tunnels.

We are also close to the port of Tazacorte, from where boat trips are organized. This is also a unique experience with views of the new volcano, the new lava deltas and special cave dive sites: La Cueva del Diablo, Cueva de Aqua Dulce and Cueva Colorada.

In the last 15 years we have built up a very large customer base with different nationalities, mainly Dutch, Germans, Belgians, Spaniards, but also from Switzerland, Austria, England and France. La Palma is very special, many divers like to come back every year. The mild climate and the special underwater world make La Palma a unique diving destination.

After 15 years, it's time for us to go back to family and start a new career.

LOS LLANOS DE ARIDANE

The diving company based in Rawai, Phuket was founded in 2014. Steady growth and a targeted, strategic realignment prompted the two owners to expand in 2019 and purchase a dive ship.

This enabled the company to position itself successfully in a niche in a new and extremely successful way. The business model includes individual diving in small groups and private settings, away from the mass diving industry that is common in Phuket. The dive ship is approved for 20 people plus 3 crew but is designed for only a maximum of 12 divers to maintain exclusivity.

The heart and the key to success is the charming dive ship, which was completely overhauled by the owner in 2019. In the last two years, all necessary maintenance work has been carried out regularly and various adjustments and improvements have been made. The reliable and safe dive ship is operational on a daily basis and is in immaculate condition. No costly repairs are to be expected. On board there is a breathing air compressor, 15 diving tanks, 10 buoyancy vests in different sizes, 8 regulators, various diving suits, masks and fins. In addition to the usual boat equipment, the inventory also includes a dinghy with outboard engine, a kayak and a SUP.

3 main reasons to choose Phuket

1. Excellent diving with an enormous abundance of fish and an impressive biodiversity. The diving operation takes place all year round, with the high season lasting between October and April. The tropical climate ensures pleasant air and water temperatures all year round.
2. Phuket Island combines Western amenities with Thai serenity. Visitors can move freely and safely to explore the country and its people up close. In addition to diving and relaxing on dream beaches, there are countless other leisure activities that guarantee an eventful and unforgettable holiday.

2. A popular holiday destination with easy travel thanks to direct flights from many countries of the world. The heavily frequented international airport in Phuket has excellent air traffic connections.

Recipe for success

The company and the dive operation is managed by the two owners with great personal commitment and tireless commitment. This reflects the philosophy where the experience is in the foreground and not the profit. Diving fanatics and ocean lovers, or those who want to become one, appreciate this.

During the pandemic, the owners have succeeded in maintaining the business with new, creative fields of activity, among other things. This is also to be credited to an independent and cost-effective entrepreneurial structure.

Current enlargement potential

Since the entry requirements and Covid restrictions for Phuket were relaxed, the demand for diving activities and diving courses has risen sharply right away. The offer, on the other hand, is no longer available indefinitely and a redistribution is currently taking place in Phuket. This offers unique opportunities to increase the volume including sales and profit with appropriate resources (personnel, financial resources, shop location, etc.). Another expandable...
