Maltaqua was established in 1970 by Mike and Agnes Upton, both CMAS National Instructors, PADI Staff Instructors and BSAC Advanced Instructors who have both logged thousands of dives since they started diving in 1968. Both are teachers by profession so diver training has always been of particular interest to them. 
Maltaqua occupies three floors on Mosta Rd, the main road through the old village of St Paul's Bay. The International Diver College is only 100 metres away, at the Sands Apartments in Patri Felice Sammut Street. Their position is very close to the centre of St Paul's Bay, with a wide choice of shops, restaurants, bars etc nearby. The three villages of St Paul's Bay, Bugibba and Qawra now form one single conglomerate, which is one of the two main tourist areas on the island.
