Scuba Murcia Tech is a technical-only dive operation on Spain's Costa Cálida. TDI & PSAI training from Intro to Tech through Full Cave and Trimix — and guided expeditions on the wrecks of Cabo de Palos and the only warm-water cenote in Europe.
Scuba Murcia Tech runs as a single-instructor operation. One team in the water at a time. Briefings that take as long as they need. Debriefs that don't get skipped.
Programmes are TDI and PSAI — the floor. What you leave with is cleaner hands, conservative gas, and dives that look like the briefing. We do not teach recreational. We do not teach try-dives. The cohort is people who want to go deeper, longer, and into the overhead.
A freshwater–saltwater halocline cave in the Sierra de Almagrera, twenty minutes from the marina. Clear. Geological. The only warm-water cenote in Europe.
November 2023. A two-and-a-half hour penetration into Cueva del Agua — past the halocline, past 850 metres of cave. Shot by the team.
Three programmes we recommend before anything else — and the ones divers return to us for.
Helium for the deep wrecks. Plan, blend and dive trimix to 60 metres on the Sirio, the Stanfield, the cargo of Bajo de Fuera.
The complete cave diver. Complex navigation, jumps, traverses and circuits — autonomous cave-team certification.
Europe's only warm-water cenote. A freshwater–saltwater halocline cave with the halocline visible at twelve metres.
Nine programmes. From the first twinset to autonomous full-cave. No recreational training on this slate — that work lives elsewhere.
Every photograph on this site, on rotation. Wreck to cave, kit to team — in two minutes you've seen the whole field.
From the Sirio to the Naranjito, the seabed off Cabo de Palos holds one of Europe's densest concentrations of accessible wrecks — most sitting in 30 to 60 metres, within sight of the Marine Reserve.
Charted. Briefed. Dived within the limits of training.
Trimix · 60 m
Shore entries, twin tanks, the cave, the boat. No stock photography — every frame is from a Scuba Murcia dive.

Agency standards are the minimum. We exceed them where doing so produces safer, more thoughtful divers — never where it adds theatre. Every certification carries a personal sign-off. Never a check-box.
Flagship weeks built around the local geography. Limited team sizes. Booked nine to twelve months ahead.
The clearest, calmest tech instruction I've had in twenty years of diving. Small teams. Real standards. No theatre.
We came for the wrecks and stayed for the cenote. Cueva del Agua is unlike anything else in Europe.
Personal. Precise. Unhurried. They debrief every dive — and it shows.
