We start the program with a 15 minute explanation and give you the information that you need to know before getting in the water.

Then we put the wetsuit and full scuba equipment on and together with the instructor you get into the water from the beach. In the shallow part we take time to get used to the breathing and do a few skills. We make our tour in the bay and gradually go deeper to a maximum of 6 meters. During the dive you will see lots of fish and we take photos.

Excellent dive shop in a prime location. I took my 9 year old daughter there for her first ever diving experience (bubblemaker dive) and she absolutely loves it. Marian was her instructor and did a fantastic job of talking her through the basics of diving and what to expect. She was both nervous and excited, and Marian did a fantastic job of explaining the important things she needed to know and what to expect, while making the whole experience fun and enjoyable. Playa Chica is a great location for a first dive (I tagged along so can vouch for this!) with plenty of marine life and gentle, calm waters thanks to the protection of the small rock-lined bay. I highly recommend these guys!

Our youngest son & I went scuba diving today. Our instructor was Amanda who was really friendly, clear, calm & patient. To be honest all the staff we spoke to were friendly and helpful and keen to make sure you were safe and enjoyed the experience. They seem very organised and knowledgeable. Safari Diving had been recommended by the friend of a friend who dives with them regularly. Would consider doing again and would definitely recommend to others
lovely comfortable experience with my 12 year old grandson who loved it .

hi . I went on a try dive with my grandson for his first dive . we were taken out by an instructor called Debra. she was amazing from start to finish and made sure the group were all comfortable each. step of the way . ie. getting used to breathing under water before leaving the safety of the shallow beach . then took the group out slowly and made them feel safe . I have dived before and some dive schools are not all as careful as they should be . if your going diving in lanzarote I would recommend using safari diving. there equipment is all very good and they carry out a lot of various dives suitable for everyone .

The experience has been very good, the groups are 4 and the instructor (Maxi in my case) can easily take care of any unexpected. You see a lot of fish on Chica beach, we were also lucky to see a cuttlefish very close up. In short, I will repeat without hesitation.

Did the beginner dive with my son. Marta instructed us both and she was excellent. My son overcame his nervousness pretty quickly due to Marta explaining the basics. We did the beginner dive which was up to 6 metres deep. We then did the follow up dive with Marta which we went down to 12 meters. Excellent. Would certain recommend.
