The Dry Suit Diving specialty at Orca Diving is relevant in the Costa Brava context — water temperatures in the area drop to single digits in winter and rarely exceed the low twenties in summer, which makes dry suit use practical for a significant portion of the year. The course covers the specific buoyancy and trim adjustments required when diving in a dry suit compared to a wetsuit.

Theory runs in the centre's equipped classroom; practical sessions go out from Club Nàutic on the Janity to appropriate local sites. The instructor adapts to each student's experience level — dry suit buoyancy is a specific skill set that takes focused practice, and the small-group format at Orca Diving means the instructor can monitor each student's air-and-suit management without losing track of the group.

At 220€, Dry Suit Diving is mid-range in the speciality list. Cressi-Sub rental equipment is available, though students will typically want to practise in their own dry suit if they own one — the rental kit option means the course can run even for students who haven't bought their own suit yet.

For divers who want to extend their diving into the colder months on the Costa Brava or travel to colder destinations, this certification is the standard qualification needed by most operators. The centre stores gear between sessions and cylinders are filled on the BAHUER compressor.
