First, a big thank you to Chris, Alex & Rocky for another great diving holiday. This was our 8th diving holiday with them &, as always, we thoroughly enjoyed it.
We keep coming back here because they are safe divers & they try to make sure that the customers enjoy the whole experience, not just the diving. We did 18 dives & they arranged a mix of shore & boat diving so we only repeated a 2 or 3 of the dive sites. There is so much to see here – the highlights included angel sharks, turtles & 6 species of stingray.
They cater for all levels of recreational diving - whether you are a complete beginner or an experienced diver, I would definitely recommend Tenerife Scuba.

Firstly a big thank you to Chris & Alex for providing us with yet another very enjoyable diving holiday, particularly to Alex for all his hard work helping us in & out of the water & generally just being there to lend a hand when needed.
This was our 7th holiday with Tenerife Scuba & we keep coming back because they are safe divers & provide a very relaxed, sociable diving experience. We first came here back in 2015 to finish our open water course having done the referral in the UK & Tenerife Scuba has been a big part of our development as divers. I would definitely recommend them whether you are a complete beginner or qualified diver looking to do courses or who just wants some excellent guided dives.
There was plenty to see - from tiny cardinal fish to rays & turtles & everything in between. A surprise bonus at this time of year was an angel shark that had done a fairly poor job of hiding itself in the sand!

We didn't expect much from scuba diving in Tenerife - but it was really great! The divesites were really different every time, Alex - our guide was really helpfull and patient. The owner - Chris is really nice guy who reacts quickly to emails so everything runs smoothly.
Guyes here are very experienced and ready to help or discuss any possibilities.
We had 12 dives with them and we had such a good time with them. We Totally recomend it!

I did my first dive here last week and the experience was great from start to finish. The team are so friendly and guide you through the process from start to finish I felt very comfortable and eased going for my first ever dive. They also allowed my wife to come along and be part of the experience even though she did not dive herself! I would highly recommend if you’re looking for a great diving experience!

Decently priced diving experience with a good balance of visibility and wild life. Water trends to be colder than other places all year round. I was expecting a slightly less fulfilling experience so was pleasantly surprised in the end.

Been a while since I was last in Tenerife but once again, these guys didn't disappoint (see my last 2 reviews for them).
Dived a site I'd not done before this time, it was fantastic: wreck of El Peñon in Tabaiba; the freedivers we were sharing it with on the day also seemed to be enjoying themselves in there; impressive to see these guys 30-odd meters underwater, racing through the wreck without scuba.
Keep up the good work, Chris, and best wishes!

Went Diving with Alex after Chris had picked me up from my hotel. Both guys are so friendly and professional, I completed four dives with Alex over two days. As I am a qualified diver Alex treated me like a buddy, but was a great help with my fins as the ones I was using there were totally different to mine, so to be fair I did struggle with them a bit.
I cannot praise Tenerife Scuba enough, totally professional, very friendly, and also great fun.
Will definitely use them again when I am next in Tenerife, in fact I have ask Chris to put together a dive package for next year then hopefully me and a few friends will be back.

Chris and Alex are wonderful people. The communication went smooth and perfect. I’ve diven with quite some organisations but this is the best experience I had so far. They take in account which animals you’re interested in and will - where possible - adjust to which dive site you’ll go to.

This was my and my wife's 1st dive ever and Alex was an amazing instructor to do it with. I am familiar with snorkeling and my wife had done it only once before. However, we felt completely safe, comfortable and had loads of fun. We took the course adjusted for newbies like us, there was no rush and we did everything very methodically to the point where my wife was not only able to overcome her initial fear to dive in, but ensured me we will continue diving in the future. Alex was right when he said that the biggest downside to diving is that you keep wanting more. Unforgettable and wonderful experience.

Arranged a quick break to Tenerife.
Arriving Friday afternoon,I was confirmed one shore dive
Two boat dives saturday
One dive sunday morning by email before I left the UK...Fair enough.
Reality?
I arrived saturday afternoon to be told"no dive today,sea too rough"we will pick you up tomorrow.
Walked down the road past Atlantic Divers who had just come back off two dives that very day.
I enquired and they told me they could do me Three dives saturday and two on sunday...a no brainer.I dived with them I was on a quick weekend break and didnt have time on my side to waste.
Being economical with the truth with your potential customers is not a good business model also questions the integrity of the people you are going to spend your hard earned with.
This is not a malicious review with any hidden agenda...just the facts of what happened.

Well thank you for taking the time to post. You raise a couple of points which I would like to respond to.
You arranged for a shore dive on the Friday afternoon you arrived. The reason it was a shore dive was that you were arriving late in the afternoon and the boat would already have left with other customers. This you were aware of this and confirmed that this would be ok, we had arranged a dive guide for you. As it turned out your arrival at the dive centre was later than planned by which time the arranged shore dive was not possible due to the amount of surge and swell making it dangerous to dive from the shore.
There is a big difference between shore diving and boat diving. It is possible to dive from a boat in sea conditions that make a shore dive impossible or dangerous.
We cancelled the shore dive on the Friday afternoon and agreed to pick you up on Saturday for two boat dives.
Please note that when you spoke to Atlantic they had come back from two boat dives.
As promised when we spoke on the Friday I waited outside your hotel on the Saturday morning at 9am as arranged. Having waited for 15 mins I went and called your apartment and didn't get a response. I then waited for a further 15min for you to arrive. As I had other customers with me I could wait no longer. I also emailed you on the Saturday morning (as you didn't show) to see if you were OK.
Whilst I can understand your disappointment at not being able to dive on the Friday, at no point were we economical with the truth and feel that you misunderstood what was said.
We put your safety first and our finances second!

Hello We are a couple, inexperienced in diving,
We have accomodation in Poetre de la cruz.
We want to do a basic diving curse that will last a day and we may be able to devote two days.
What options do we have? Is a medical certificate required? What are the usual costs?
Thanks,
Yoram

They offer Discover Scuba (you begin with a pool dive for you to learn the basic skills, followed by a "real" dive; allow 5-6 hours), and they also offer "try dives" (around 3 hours start to finish, and each diver has their own instructor). I recommend contacting Chris and Sarah (the owners) directly to discuss your comfort level. The waters around Tenerife are full of amazing sea creatures, so it's hard to say exactly what you'll see but, again, Chris and Sarah will be able to give you more information when you get in touch with them (they're incredibly helpful, and very friendly). Hope you have a wonderful time!
