With exclusive use of the boat, you set the pace while exploring volcanic reefs, walls, and possible wreck sites. 🕒 Key Details Duration: 3 hours 30 minutes Dive type: 2 boat dives Average depth: 15–20 metres Maximum depth: 30+ metres (site dependent) Capacity: Up to 6 certified divers and 6 non-divers (12 total) Minimum age: 12 years Return time: Approx. 13:00 🌊 What to Expect The trip begins with a 09:00 check-in at the marina in Caniçal before boarding your private vessel. After equipment setup and briefing, the skipper heads towards the protected area of Ponta de São Lourenço, an eastern peninsula known for clear water and varied topography. Two guided dives are conducted at sites selected according to conditions and diver experience. The area offers volcanic rock formations, drop-offs, swim-throughs, and occasional wrecks such as the Newton or Forerunner. Average depths range from 15–20 metres, with deeper profiles available where appropriate. Visibility is typically excellent, and marine life may include large groupers, barracuda, rays, and, on rare occasions, sightings of the Mediterranean monk seal. Surface intervals are taken onboard with water and light refreshments provided. Non-divers are welcome to join the trip and can snorkel using provided equipment. The private format allows the itinerary to remain flexible, with site choice and timing adapted to the group. 📍 Location Diving takes place within the protected marine area of Ponta de São Lourenço, one of Madeira’s most environmentally regulated coastal zones. The area benefits from reduced fishing activity, supporting healthy marine ecosystems and stable underwater visibility. Departure is from Marina da Quinta do Lorde in Caniçal, located close to the dive sites, reducing travel time and maximising in-water experience. Facilities for showers and changing are available after the dive. ✅ Prerequisites Participants must hold a recognised Open Water Diver certification (or equivalent) and have logged at least six dives. Certification must be presented digitally or physically on arrival. Divers who have not dived within the past 12 months are required to complete a refresher session before joining this trip. A standard diving medical declaration applies. ⭐ Why Choose Us The private charter forma… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Private 2-dive boat trip to Ponta de São Lourenço Full diving equipment 12-litre air tank filled to 200 bar Weight belt and weights Certified dive guide (maximum 6:1 ratio) Professional skipper Fuel Diving and non-diving insurance Water and cookies Shower and changing facilities ### What’s not included Personal dive computer (if not bringing your own) Additional specialty equipment Transport to and from the marina ### Kit list _None._ ## FAQs _No FAQs in catalog._ ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/bc875c7f-5d7e-46bb-b59a-6e212ded318b.webp - **Gallery image count**: 11 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
