Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I would definitely recommend the dive center either your an advanced diver or not. If you have some experience at diving and you are looking for a serious diving center with good equipment, nice dive sites, very friendly staff, and well prepared, then look no more. Here you have it all. Maro was the best dive buddy I had.

First new dive centre after qualifying as advanced open water divers. The pre assessment and briefing was extremely thorough and reassuring. Marco (with hair! our lead diver for the morning was superb; Marco (without hair) was equally fantastic as lead diver for our afternoon dive

Let me start by saying, I highly recommend Blue planet diving if you’re in Croatia. The facility and equipment are top notch and the people at the dive center were wonderful. Not a lot of large, marine life, but the geography offers many many caves and areas explore, making this a truly unique dive experience and location. The cost is reasonable and includes rental gear, and the boat rides to the dive sites are quick and easy. Trust me, you won’t go wrong booking your Croatia dive experience with Blue planet!

As an inexperienced diver, going here was a great choice. They grouped us according to experience levels, so everyone had a good/appropriate experience. The guides were great, and we saw a lot of interesting fish, corals, and sea life. I would definitely dive with them again if I came back to this area.

Can you recommend holiday resorts to stay at, close by to the diving school please?

Hi Suze, we stayed at some airbnbs near the dive school about 15 minute walking distance. I could truely recommend the place called 'family recidence close to beach terrace and bbq' of Hrvoje or 'Relaxo apartment'. If you want to look yourself make sure you book an apartment in the Lapad area!
Is this suitable for someone who has never scuba dived before? We would like to dive in the sea.
Thank you
