One of the strong points of the Orso Diving is to have always had a staff able to face all situations.
 
The Orso Diving has never haggled over the number of its collaborators. During the season we are up to 7/8 Instructors and 4/5 Dive Masters.
In our diving center many languages are spoken. We are able to hold courses in : English, German, French, Spanish and - from this year - also Russian.

HISTORY

 
Corrado Azzali the first and actual manager of the Orso Diving Club born in Salsomaggiore T. in 1960, in the '77 he discovered what in the future will be his live, scubadiving.

In 1982 Corrado becomes Dive Master and in 1986 becomes Diving Instructor, actually with over 6.000 dives he enjoy himself

In 1987 Corrado he manage his Orso Diving Center after  an experience of 4 seasons as a Diving Guide and as a PADI Instructor in Maldives. 


In the following years, Corrado spends the summer seasons in Sardinia, and the winter ones in the Tropical Seas:
1982 - 1990 at the Maldives (the last four seasons on cruise boats);
1991 - 1992 on Similand Island, again on a cruise boat;
1992 - 1996 in Egypt, Sudan and Cayo Largo Island (Cuba).  

In these years Corrado works side by side with the wonderful Maddy, sadly lost in the '96. They plan, start and manage nearly ten Diving Centers and Cruising Boats. Most of the times they are real "track openers": they are the first ones to organize cruises in the Maldives and Similand, the first ones to open and manage a Diving Center in Sudan, the first foreign society to lead a Diving Center in Cuba.

In 1993 Corrado meets Paola Pegoraro and in 1995 they get married. Corrado has now stopped working with activities abroad, in order to follow exclusively the Diving Base in Sardinia with Paola.

From '92 to '97 they directed the diving vacations sectors of different Travel Agencies, such as Line Diving - Grantour and Going Diving of Going Tours.
In 1998 Corrado and Paola created their own Tour Operator called "I Viaggi dell’Orso", selling only locations directly managed by themselves (Sharm El Sheikh, Hurghada, Port Sudan, Cayo Largo and Sardinia). 

Since 2000 Paola and Corrado have been exclusively taking care of the first and last "true" Orso Diving Club, the one in Poltu Quatu in Sardinia. In the meantime the family has happily increased with the arrivals of Asia in 1996 and Alessio in 1999.

From 2000 till now Orso Diving continue to evolve, buying new, big, technological boats, to offer new excursions as the Snorkeling and the Whale Watching but also new diving spots as the Cerbicali Island.
