Ali Sub
Ali Sub is a diving centre based at the Club Náutico de La Vila Joiosa. It is run by Trasub La Vila S.L., has operated since 1999 and says it has trained more than 3,500 divers; the current team is already the second generation teaching there. What sets it apart is that its guides are biologists and naturalists: before each dive they explain what seabed you will see and what animals live there.
Where it goes
Its main area is the Serra Gelada Natural Park: Benidorm Island and la Llosa, an underwater platform about 400 metres south of the island, about 20 minutes' sailing away. It also dives at Altea and Dénia and runs snorkelling outings to the coves of Villajoyosa, such as Racó del Conill, La Caleta or Xarco beach. Groups are small: at most seven divers per guide.
What it offers and how much it costs
According to its 2026 price list, the snorkelling trip costs €50 and the introductory dive, with an instructor just for you, €160. One guided dive in the Serra Gelada costs €60, two €115 and the night dive €75. For anyone who wants to get certified, the SSI Open Water Diver costs €480 and there are specialities in depth, night, buoyancy and rescue, as well as freediving. Full equipment hire is €30, and they renew their gear every two years.
