Scuba Diving in Gran Canaria - Underwater with shoals of bream and fish

'Outstanding' PADI 5* Dive Centre

Casa Limon, our PADI dive centre in Arinaga has some of the best facilities and probably the best ambiance in the Canaries. The large garden is relaxed and friendly, and there is a choice of shady corners or a sun-deck to chill out in between the dives, while connecting with friends on the free wifi.

Nearby, in the centre of the reserve, the Playa del Cabrón is a great place to learn to dive with one of our highly rated instructors, on a PADI Scuba Diver or Open Water Diver course, because it is sheltered and safe, yet has a prolific and colourful marine life. You can also take part in a more advanced course in the deeper waters, where some of the more unusual creatures are found, or take a snorkelling course or your first dive underwater on a PADI Discover Scuba Diving experience or 'try-dive'.

If you want a centre for PADI SCUBA diving in the Canaries make sure you check our range of courses and see why we were awarded the PADI Europe Outstanding Achievement Award in 2018.

What a fantastic outfit! All the staff were welcoming and helpful from the outset. Booked the advanced open water course having completed open water in UK. Day one was spent getting back into things, a couple of fun dives (no doubt testing that we weren't clowns!). Thanks Hector and Edwardo. ..... Thanks again for a fab week, we'll recommend to the world and look you up if we're in Gran Canaria again.
