5Fantastic!
Fantastic company, great team keeping you safe and making sure you have an amazing experience. The tour they take you on for the DSD is so vibrant with fish and other animals and fun to dive around.
5Awesome experience
Absolutely amazing. Had a little panic at beginning but staff were wonderful on the dive. Stayed with you every step of the way like guardian angels. Paid 90 euro, worth every bit, a special treat to myself. Would definitely go with Blue Water Diving again 💙 👌
2Not for beginners
Definitely not for beginners. It was very rushed, there was experienced divers with us and we felt that they were prioritised in using their time and we didnt get the time before the open water dive. There was no shallow water practice like it says in the description to get used to breathing or the equipment. We did the online info course and were straight out to open water. We didnt do the dive due to feeling unprepared and uninformed and were not reassured. The "information course" is just an app on your phone which didnt have anything really helpful to prepare us. It was wasted money.
5Great memories. 🤿
Very friendly yet professional experience. Made a short term booking with my friend. Both never dived before. Still no stress from the guides at all. They made calm, clear and friendly instruction and it felt like they adjusted the trip to our level. The experience itself was was great. We felt well taken care and very safe. Also we could see various animals und took some great pictures. Will definetely go dive again.
5Awesome time
Really great experience! Staff were friendly, patient and knowledgeable. Made myself and my friend feel very safe and we both enjoyed the time!
5Amazing internship!
I did my Dive master internship with Blue Water Diving and i loved every second of it!! I spend a month in and around the dive shop every day, helping out with setting up equipment, helping out clients and DIVING EVERY DAY! Honestly, I don't have a bad word to say about my experience; everything was well put together and well ran by Kate and the other instructors. All of the instructors were amazing in helping me achieve my divemaster certification, from tips and tricks for helping me underwater to giving me advice on the best places to eat in town they knew it all! I am so glad that I had this experience with Blue Water Diving and I cannot recommend them enough to anyone who is thinking of doing an internship with them! Thank you Kate!

About Gran Canaria
Gran Canaria is a round volcanic island in the Atlantic, nicknamed a miniature continent for its dunes, ravines, pine forests and mountain peaks.
Gran Canaria rises from the Atlantic to a rim of peaks, and it has been called a continent in miniature because it holds desert dunes, green valleys and cool forests within a short distance. Las Palmas, on the north-east coast, is the island's capital, with the old quarter of Vegueta, its cathedral and the Casa de Colón, where Columbus is said to have stayed. Las Canteras beach runs for three kilometres along the city.
Top-ranked sights in Gran Canaria: Bandama Caldera (Caldera de Bandama), Roque Nublo, Vegueta.
