Sobre el Centro
Diving Canarias, situado en Radazul, Tenerife, es un centro de buceo certificado por SSI. Ofrece una amplia gama de cursos, desde Descubrimiento de Buceo y Open Water Diver hasta niveles profesionales como el Instructor Development Course.

El centro se encuentra a solo 30 metros de la playa, permitiendo inmersiones tanto desde costa como en barco, así como inmersiones nocturnas o con DPV (scooters). La bahía de Radazul es un lugar privilegiado, resguardado del viento y las olas, lo que la hace apta para el buceo los 365 días del año.
Diving Canarias destaca por su capacidad para adaptarse a todos los niveles de experiencia, desde principiantes que desean probar el buceo con un bautismo de 3 horas de duración y hasta 12 metros de profundidad, hasta buceadores técnicos experimentados. La cercanía al mar y el entorno natural hacen de sus instalaciones un punto de partida ideal para explorar el mundo submarino de Tenerife.

The Discover Scuba session at Diving Canarias in Radazul is a three-hour introduction that takes place in one of the most diver-friendly bays in Tenerife. Maximum depth is 12 metres. The bay is sheltered year-round, so conditions are typically calm regardless of when you show up — no hunting for a good-weather window. No prior experience is required and there are no prerequisites. The three-hour format covers basic equipment familiarisation, the fundamental skills needed to breathe underwater, and then time in the water itself with an instructor alongside you. The 12-metre limit keeps it accessible while still getting you properly beneath the surface. For those who want to continue after the Bautizo, the centre offers a discounted route into the full SSI Open Water certification — the Open Water course with prior Bautizo is listed at €345, versus the standard price. So if you're unsure whether you want to commit to a full course, starting here makes practical sense. The centre is 30 metres from the beach in Radazul, which means gear-up and entry are as simple as it gets. Dives run from shore, so there's no boat logistics on top of an already new experience.
Open Water Diver
The SSI Open Water course at Diving Canarias is the standard route to a full recreational certification recognised internationally. At €345 with IGIC, this is the discounted price for students who have already completed the Bautizo session with the centre — so if you did the Discover Scuba first, this is the natural continuation at a lower cost. Training takes place in the Bahía de Radazul, which is sheltered from Atlantic winds and waves and stays diveable 365 days a year. That means scheduling the pool and open-water sessions is flexible — you're not at the mercy of seasonal weather windows the way you might be at other locations on the island. Shore dives from the centre cover the open-water component, with the centre literally 30 metres from the water. SSI's Open Water certification is accepted by dive operations worldwide. Once you have it, you can join guided dives, rent equipment, and fill cylinders at any SSI-affiliated centre globally. For anyone based in or visiting Tenerife, having the certification in a location where you can dive year-round makes the learning process straightforward — you can spread sessions across multiple days without waiting on conditions. The centre's full course catalogue continues well beyond Open Water, from specialties and rescue through to technical and professional programmes. Students who find the technical side interesting can continue within the same facility rather than moving to a different centre.
Instructor Development Course
The SSI Open Water Instructor course at Diving Canarias certifies you to teach and certify students at any SSI school, centre or resort worldwide. The price is €850 including IGIC. Once qualified, you are authorised to run the full SSI recreational curriculum independently. Training runs in the Bahía de Radazul, a bay that operates 365 days a year due to its natural shelter from Atlantic swells and winds. The year-round operability matters for instructor training: you're not rushing sessions around seasonal conditions, and you get to train in a genuinely active centre rather than a low-volume setup. The centre's position — 30 metres from the water, offering both shore and boat dives — means you train in the same environment where you'll eventually work if you stay in Tenerife or move to a similar operation. The SSI framework is global, so the certification is valid internationally, but the practical skills come from real conditions in Radazul. Diving Canarias extends its professional training into extended-range and technical instruction, so instructors who want to go further can continue at the same facility into XR Instructor (€1,350) or XR Rebreather Instructor (€850) without changing centres.
Dive Guide
The SSI Dive Guide course is the entry point to the professional track at Diving Canarias — the first step toward Divemaster qualification. At €600 including IGIC, it positions itself as accessible relative to full Divemaster programmes while still delivering a formal professional credential. The course qualifies you to guide certified divers through dive sites under the supervision of an instructor. In a centre operating year-round in a sheltered bay with both shore and boat dive options, there's practical variety in what you learn to manage: different entry types, different diver profiles, and the operational rhythm of a working centre. For anyone deciding whether to commit to a full professional career in diving, the Dive Guide level is a sensible test point. You get enough real responsibility to understand what leading groups actually involves, without yet stepping into the instructor role. The centre's proximity to the water in Radazul means daily dive operations are active and there are real guided dive scenarios to train in. Diving Canarias runs the full SSI professional ladder from Dive Guide through to extended-range technical instructor programmes, so if you continue after this course you can progress within the same facility. The Assistant Instructor course (€850) is the next step.
XR Instructor
The SSI Extended Range (XR) Open-Circuit Instructor course at Diving Canarias is the highest-priced professional programme on their list at €1,350 including IGIC, which reflects the complexity involved. This certifies you to teach technical open-circuit diving under the SSI XR framework — a different category from recreational instruction. Diving Canarias runs technical diving to 100 metres, which puts the centre in a position where XR instructor training takes place in a facility that actually uses the depth ranges involved. That's relevant: an instructor trained here has access to real technical dive sites rather than working exclusively in pool or shallow confined water. The centre stocks technical equipment including Divesoft He/O2 analysers for trimix work, and offers air fills to 300 bar — infrastructure that supports genuine technical operations. For an XR instructor candidate, having the gas handling and analysis equipment in-house simplifies the logistics of training dives. SSI's XR framework covers multiple technical disciplines. Diving Canarias also offers the XR Sidemount Instructor (€850) and XR Rebreather Instructor (€850) courses separately, meaning an instructor can build out a full technical teaching portfolio within the same centre.
