Top 5 destinations to use your MiniDive this summer

Introduction

Summer is just around the corner, bringing with it the desire for underwater exploration. Whether you're into snorkeling or simply curious to discover marine life, your MiniDive – the innovative mini scuba tank – is the perfect companion for your seaside holidays. Easy to carry and use, this equipment allows you to extend your underwater adventures far beyond what’s possible with traditional breath-hold diving. But where should you dive in to make the most of your MiniDive? Here are our top 5 destinations with clear waters and breathtaking views to enjoy an unforgettable underwater adventure this summer.

1. French Riviera, France – A Mediterranean gem

The French Riviera is a go-to for sea lovers. Its turquoise coves and marine reserves offer a fantastic playground for your MiniDive. For instance, the Port-Cros National Park near Hyères features renowned snorkeling spots where marine life flourishes. With your mini scuba tank, you can explore posidonia seagrass beds and observe schools of colorful fish without surfacing every minute. “I was blown away by the clarity of the water and how close I could get to fish using my MiniDive near Porquerolles. It felt like true underwater freedom!” says Jean, 34, a MiniDive user for over a year. From the Calanques of Marseille to the Îles d'Or, the Riviera is full of stunning underwater scenery. Don’t forget your MiniDive complete kit so you're fully equipped wherever your adventure leads!

2. Corsica, France – The Island of Beauty and its crystal-clear waters

Corsica lives up to its name, even beneath the waves. With hidden coves and wild beaches, it’s an ideal place for free diving with a mini scuba tank. From Porto Gulf to the Lavezzi Islands, Corsican waters are incredibly clear and full of life. With your MiniDive, set off on an adventure along rugged coasts and discover shallow underwater caves perfect for beginners. Near Bonifacio, for example, the Lavezzi islets are home to coral-covered seabeds and tropical fish, typically seen while snorkeling but now accessible for close-up exploration with your gear. Be sure to check regulations in protected areas like the Scandola Reserve and always practice safe diving, but rest assured: MiniDive is designed for ease of use, even for novice explorers. A short hike to a secret beach, calm clear waters—and you're ready to dive into Corsica's marine world with your MiniDive for a timeless voyage.

3. Malta – Caves and wrecks within easy reach

A favorite among divers, Malta is a paradise for those looking to explore freely. The Mediterranean-washed islands are filled with marine caves, underwater tunnels, and shallow wrecks. With your MiniDive, swim through the crystal waters of Comino’s Blue Lagoon or explore the Blue Grotto—no heavy gear required. A vacation in Malta is the perfect blend of culture and sea adventure. After a day of underwater exploration, easily rinse and refill your mini scuba tank for tomorrow’s outing—using a portable MiniDive compressor or manual pump. Lightweight and compact, MiniDive lets you enjoy every cove and marine corner Malta offers with full autonomy and adventure.

4. Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt – Reef colors and abundant marine life

If you dream of vibrant corals and multicolored fish, the Red Sea is your destination. Sharm el-Sheikh, located on the Sinai coast, is famous for its shore-accessible reefs—ideal for snorkeling or light scuba diving. With your MiniDive, get up close with coral gardens, clownfish, rays, and even sea turtles in sites like Ras Mohammed or Naama Bay. The sea is warm and incredibly clear in summer, offering perfect visibility. No need to dive deep—just a few meters below the surface, you'll discover a burst of color and life. With your mini scuba tank, you’ll stay underwater longer than with classic snorkeling. Tip: many local dive centers will help you refill your MiniDive between trips if you don’t have your own compressor—allowing daily adventures throughout your Red Sea voyage.

5. Bali, Indonesia – Tropical wonder and marine magic

Travel to the other side of the world and discover Bali’s tropical waters with your MiniDive. The Island of the Gods is surrounded by incredible dive sites, many accessible right from the shore—perfect for your mini tank. In the north, Amed hosts a shallow Japanese shipwreck teeming with marine life and corals—a fantastic first exploration with your MiniDive. Nearby, Menjangan Island in the marine national park offers encounters with parrotfish, barracudas, and colorful corals. Take your adventure further to the Gili Islands, where sea turtles glide through postcard-perfect turquoise waters. With your MiniDive, you can breathe calmly and dive whenever and wherever you like. It's the perfect companion for unforgettable travel memories in Bali!
