      Incredible new experience with great guidance!
      This was really new to us and exciting! The instructors are really supportive and helped us getting the changing pressure in our ears right, and we got an experience we will never forget! Grazie milles, we want more! What a luxury too to have all the help you can imagine and just enjoy what you see down under!

      Great Centre
      Great centre with great people working there. Lots of really enthusiastic dive master interns and some very knowledgable instructors. I exchanged emails with Kate before travelling to GC and she was really helpful. Dived 8 times over 4 days and on every occasion things were very smooth. A mix of wrecks and stoney reefs with lots to see and staff that take the time to make sure you’ve had a good experience. If you’re new to diving or are already certified then I’d definitely recommend giving these guys a go. In fact, if I was ten years younger I’d probably have signed up for their internship by now.

      Great experience with an amazing instructor
      We first came to blue water diving in May for snorkelling & we’re blown away with how comfortable we were made to feel. My 13 year old wanted to try scuba but it wasn’t for the rest of us but the assurance given in May gave us the confidence to come back in October for him to go on his own. Aileen was his instructor she took things at his pace was thorough & built his confidence in something new. Needless to say an open water course looks like the next step! Great experience with experienced friendly team

      Not recommemded for Diving Courses
      Sadly just a bad Experience. I don't speak all for myself here. I started the Rescue Diver Course (I have the OWD and the Advanced OWD-Course, are Deep Diving Certified and have the Nitrox Certification) and my Girlfriend started the Open Water Diver Course. Anyway the Rescue Diver Course, especially Eileen the Instructor was quite Cool and Professional. But still no Questions where asked about my Experience or explenations of what the Programm will be. My girlfriend had a very bad experience, she was rushed and her Instructor was very stressed and rude to the staff. They didn't give her any good Instructions and her First Dive was way too early and rushed without proper Instruction as well, wich is absolutely irresponsible if you work with someone who took her first breath underwater for the first time about an hour ago. All in all a very bad Diving Center if you want an cool and relaxed start into the diving world.

      Nice experience. Super friendly staff. We felt very safe with the instructors. Even my 60 year old mom felt safe and had a good experience.

      We took PADI Open water and Advanced Open water courses in 4 days – and the only way to describe the experience is great! Everybody working there and especially our Instructor Eileen are extremely friendly and competent. The diving sites were great, the equipment provided was perfect and well adjusted. The training was custom tailored to our skills and we felt confident enough to really enjoy ourselves. Eileen took us from “rookies” and used her attention to detail to the point where we turned into divers who feel comfortable and calm under water. We managed to relax and truly enjoyed the nature and the underwater wrecks of the diving sites. We are coming back next year for sure!

      Unforgettable and life changing experience
      We took PADI Open water and Advanced Open water courses back-to-back in 4 consecutive days – and the only way to describe the experience was – unbelievably great! The staff and our Instructor Eileen are extremely friendly and competent. The smiles never got away from our faces. The diving sites were great, the equipment provided was absolutely superb and individually adjusted. The training (intensive enough) was custom tailored to our skills and desire to go further, we practiced everything required by the rule book and then some (because we wanted to), to the point that we felt confident enough to really see the beauty of the underwater world. Eileen took our rudimentary skills and turned us into divers who feel comfortable and calm under water. We managed to relax and truly enjoyed the nature and the underwater wrecks of the diving sites. The only thing we didn’t like was that we couldn’t spend more time with those fantastic people (but that is hardly their fault 😉). We are definitely coming back next year – and this time we will reserve the whole week for diving with Blue Water Diving – it is well worth it!

      Not even an hour
      The 2-hour trip was actually a 45-minute spend in the water. You see get to a spot 3 minutes out of the harbor and almost see nothing but rocks. A few fish around. The guides swim so fast and give you barely time to view and float around. They give you excellent gear for the snorkel trip. It is only not worth €45,- a person for that short amount of time spent. The crew is good and friendly.

      Best dive shop bar none!
      Completed my 5-week internship on 21 August... never had so much fun or worked so hard in my life! These guys are awesome - thanks to Boat Chris (am waiting to hear back from Suunto!), Kate, Eileen, Swiss Chris and Erin for guiding this 55 year-old to his Divemaster qualification. Superb preparation, briefing and organisation of all dives, brilliant mentorship and teaching... I could not recommend these guys more highly for looking after all your diving needs. Working with the Blue Water team and the interns was a pleasure and something I will always remember as such a worthwhile experience - good on you guys for caring about every single individual diver and their needs... awesome! Special thanks to some of my intern brethren whilst I was there, Jas, Henry, Aidan, Cam, Alena, Ben, Marijana, David, Coco, Gaultier, Ollie, Nika, Jasmina, Stef - heroes and friends for life one and all.

      6 star beginners scuba dive experience
      Amazing beginners scuba diving experience. The instructor was very friendly, funny and patient both at the centre, when providing demonstration instructions, and during the trial dive for us getting used to the gear, breathing with the regulator and standard troubleshooting and solving it (e.g. water in your mask, regulator came off, etc). During the dive there was an instructor with each beginner diver at all times, which provides a great sense of security (very good for the most nervous divers), and the main instructor guided us through the route and to see various kinds of fish, octupus and star fish. I was excited for this experience and it did not disappoint. Definitely recommended and look forward to doing it again!

      Looking for a dive school in Gran Canaria? Look no further
      We had the best time with the team at Blue Water... My 11 year old son and I completed the 'open water' course across 3 days. I'd looked around at the various schools and glad we went with Blue Water in Puerto Rico. Our instructor Eileen was amazing, one of those people you know loves what they do and was very reassuring, clear, knowledgeable, knew what to say, celebrated evey sucess and she is a credit to the dive school. Eileen took time to show us lots of wildlife and explain what we would be doing on each dive, so a mix of learning and fun....The wider team were fantastic and really made sure we were ready to dive and had everything we needed for it to be enjoyable. The team spoke a wide range of languages and had interns supporting from all over the world. We also hired a gopro to capture some memories.We only wish we could have stayed and had more dives however it's time to head home... my son is inspired and already planning his next dives and advanced open water when he turns 12!

      Diving with the young makes you feel young again
      I reached out to Kate prior to arriving and the vibe was instantly good from her response. On arrival Chris and Kate were ready for me and were kind enough to stow my kit for the duration. I hadnt dived in a while and wanted a refresher - which was undertaken with “Swiss Chris” (& his little bell 😂) at Belito Shallow a perfect spot for a tune up and even learned something new along the way, because every day should be a school day. Thoroughly enjoyed the dive and subsequent excursions along with the trainee interns, Smilin’ Mylo, Stefan, “Diddly Squat diving” Ollie, Gaultier (the James Dean of his generation) CoCo, Gentle Nika, David, Jasmina, Jasmine all of whom were excellent company and buddies. Special mention to the Meteor wreck which was simply sublime, and the “enthusiastic” swim to see the special Nudibranch with Eileen on my last dive. My niece did a DSD with Swiss Chris, Skipper Chris Eileen and Stefan on overwatch. She has special requirements and I didn’t think she was going to manage but with careful encouragement, patience & time they got her to 4m and she raved about the experience for the rest of the holiday. Thank you guys - I had a great time. Stay safe x

    An excellent dive, managed by Chris and Kate, and I would highly recommend Blue Water Diving to anyone looking for a friendly, safe, and excellent dive in Gran Canaria.

    I spoke to Kate via email, looking for a wreck dive while I was in Gran Canaria, she was very helpful, and arranged two dives to suit my schedule.
    I was collected from my hotel by the dive master, Chris, and taken to the dive centre to get kitted out with the equipment before travelling the short distance to the rib.
    A very short drive out to sea dropped us onto the Cermona 2 wreck, and on the same dive we moved onto the El Perchel wreck, followed by a second dive after a short break back on dry land.
    The Dive was excellent, as well as the two wrecks, we saw Rays, Cuttlefish, Barracuda, Octopus, and an array of other fish.
    Throughout the dive Chris kept a keen eye on everything and spotted the various species like a blood hound, ensuring I missed nothing.

    Actually my daughter and I booked two dives a day for 2 days and had an amazing time. The boat dives are superb and able to reach locations otherwise inaccessible. Chris and Kate operate a very professional and friendly service and are always a joy to dive with. ( we have dived with them almost every year for the last 8 years.
    A word of advice. As tourism comes back to the island to pre pandemic levels and Blue Water divings' reputation proceeds them I would say it is better to book your dives in advance so you are not disappointed. it seems that they are getting super busy and numbers per dive are limited by law for boat dives apparently.
    I would say, having dived different locations around the world, that BWD are one of the most safety conscious and professional centres.

    After a gap of being in the water, my son went on the reactivate course and the team were brilliant at ensuring safety and confidence. He was eager to go on further dives and thoroughly enjoyed his time with everyone.
    Highly recommend blue Water Diving to anyone wanting to experience diving for the first time, complete their PADI or just enjoy what the sea has to offer.

    Blue water diving are a very friendly and helpful business. We arrived a the shop for a chat as my partner is a non diver but wanted to do a DSD while I was out diving from the boat in the morning. All the staff where extremely knowledgeable and very professional and arranged to do a DSD with her and the 2 boat dives with me.
    All the equipment was assembled ready and the boat was brought around very close to the shop.
    Both dives where great, the first was on a wreck and the second was a drift dive. Lots of fish, rays, eels and even an angel shark.
    I got back after the dives to see my partner very happy with her try dives and eager to progress in diving.
    Thank you so much for giving us both such an excellent service. Will be back to dive with you again.

    First time I've used Blue Water, so there's always that concern about using an unknown dive shop, but Kate & the team were very welcoming & knowledgeable.
    I'd dived in Gran Canaria before, so I was looking for some new dive spots, and day 1 saw us heading up to Mogan for a couple of wreck dives, the Cermona II & Araganza.
    There was plenty of life on & around the wrecks (octopus, eagle rays, stingrays, barracuda), & Kate was a great dive buddy, pointing things out, including a large shoal of tuna that were right behind me.
    Day 2, and something different. Carolyn & her merry band of interns picked me up & we headed to her favourite dive site on the East of the island - El Cabron. This is a shore dive, and can be a bit of a washing machine going in, but once you're in, the life is fantastic, eels, octopus, cuttlefish, arches, caves - it had it all!
    The best compliment I can give was that these 2 days felt like I was diving with my regular dive buddies! Great experience & I'll be booking back on when i'm back in June!

    Fully recommend the Centre, its staff and facilities.
    2 dives from boat and fine by 1pm. Excellent equipment, our guide Eileen was total professional and lovely to talk with. Obviously a busy and well oiled machine as they had the group kitted, loaded and on the water without delay.
    Located adjacent to the marina so no delays loading or unloading

    Prior experience in club diving from a RIB is helpful as the boat is tight confines for those unused to such setups

    I was a little nervous approaching this experience as it had been some time since my PADI open water dive. It was very easy to make contact prior to my dive and all of my questions were responded to really quickly. On the day, my nerves were quickly settled by the well organised setup and a friendly and individualised approach to teaching. This led to a really enjoyable diving experience that felt safe and supported. I would definitely choose to use Blue Water Diving again when I’m next in Gran Canaria

    It was easy to book.
    The preparation for the dive was quite well organised.
    The only flaw is that there are no changing rooms and you have to change wherever you happen to be in front of the entrance to the place, practically in the middle of the road, which is quite busy and smelly.
    Both scheduled dives done from the boat were very beautiful. The one that includes the Parque underwater La Atlántida, just outside Puerto de Mogán, easy but very suggestive, is highly recommended.
    The staff is always very attentive and available for any information. Thank you.

    My wife, my son and I had a great day. Smooth business and great staff. The dive was on a day of difficult weather, so we did two dives from Amadores Beach. Chris and the staff guided us to see angelsharks, stingray, trumpetfish and more. My wife had a successful refreshdive and was taken very good care of. Recommended😊👍

    I did 18 dives with Blue Water Diving. Everyone is so friendly, safety conscious and there are so many different dives with an amazing assortment of fish, eels and rays to see.
    I rented top quality dive equipment and always feel safe in their hands.
    My partner is a nervous diver but was put at ease by his dive guide.
    The boat is outside the dive centre which makes it so easy and quick to load up.
    I can't wait to dive again with Blue Water Diving!
