This activity is designed exclusively for beginners. You will meet at the dive center in Maspalomas or be picked up from accommodations between Puerto Rico and Maspalomas. Upon arrival, you complete mandatory paperwork including a medical questionnaire and liability waiver.
Afterwards, you will receive 30 minutes of training on scuba gear, breathing techniques, underwater skills, and safety. You’ll try on a wetsuit and scuba equipment to ensure proper fit.
The next step is a short drive, up to 25 minutes, to the chosen dive site. The instructor selects the site the day of the dive based on weather suitability. Typical sites include Risco Verde, Playa de Tufia, and Playa de el Cabron, all offering easy entry and exit points.
