Full description
You haven't really experienced Gran Canaria until you get to know its seabed.
In Agaete a first diving experience awaits you with everything you need to dive with confidence. You will start with a theory session at the dive centre and experience your first dive to a depth of 6 metres , surrounded by Atlantic marine life.
An experience to unlock a new passion, do you dare to take the first step?
What we will do
We will have to arrive punctually at the meeting point in Agaete, in the northwest of Gran Canaria. The instructor who will accompany us on this Discover Scuba Diving experience will be waiting for us there.
We will start with a theory session of about 40 minutes at the dive centre, where we will receive all the necessary explanations about the use of the equipment, underwater communication and safety rules. After completing the medical form, changing and equipping ourselves we will walk to the beach of Agaete, just a few metres away.
The dive will be done from the beach, always under the constant supervision of the instructor. During the experience, we will reach a maximum depth of 6 metres. We will have time to familiarise ourselves with the regulator and experience our first emotions in the underwater world.
For about 30 minutes we will be able to enjoy the seabed in the north of Gran Canaria. We will be able to see different marine species of the area such as black fulas, pejeverdes, giant anemones, fire worms, octopuses, cuttlefish, bream. ..
At the end of the dive, we will return to the dive centre, where we can change and share our experience.
The total duration of the activity is approximately 2 to 3 hours.
