Diving in Spain

Spain packs astonishing variety — Pyrenean peaks, the Picos, Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts and volcanic islands. Sail, surf, kitesurf and paddleboard, climb and deep-water solo, canyon, kayak, cycle the Camino and ski the Pyrenees. One of Adventuro's most active destinations, with instructors and centres the length of the country.

Overview

Spain offers excellent, accessible scuba diving across its islands. The volcanic Canary Islands — Tenerife and Fuerteventura — bring year-round warm water, dramatic underwater topography and rich marine life, while the Balearic Islands add protected marine reserves, walls and caves in clear Mediterranean water. From a first try-dive to certified and technical diving, Spain's PADI centres make it easy to learn or to dive as a visitor.

Canaries and Balearics

The Canary Islands offer volcanic reefs, caves, lava arches and abundant fish life in subtropical water that's diveable all year. The Balearic Islands — particularly the reserves off Mallorca's coast — offer walls, caverns and gentle training bays in warm, clear summer water. Sites range from sheltered bays ideal for courses to deeper walls for the experienced.

Courses and dives

Spain's centres run the full PADI pathway — try-dives, Open Water through advanced and specialty — alongside guided shore and boat dives for certified visitors.
