Try Scuba Dive

Manta Diving Lanzarote offers the SSI Try Scuba Dive, an ideal introduction for those with no prior diving experience. This 2-hour program takes place at Playa Chica, a sheltered bay perfect for beginners, allowing participants to experience the underwater world under the direct supervision of an SSI instructor. You will practice breathing underwater and master three fundamental skills before embarking on a 30-45 minute dive to a maximum depth of 5 meters. The focus is on comfort and enjoyment, providing a safe and engaging first encounter with marine life such as sea bream, parrotfish, and damselfish.

This introductory experience is comprehensive, including all necessary equipment hire, insurance, and expert tuition. A significant highlight is the inclusion of underwater photos captured with a GoPro, serving as a lasting memento of your first dive. Upon successful completion, you will receive an SSI Try Scuba recognition card. The minimum age requirement is 8 years, making it accessible for younger adventurers. The dive is conducted directly from the beach, ensuring a relaxed experience free from boat transfer concerns or seasickness, and small group sizes guarantee personalized attention and safety.

Lanzarote's waters offer pleasant conditions for this initial exploration. While specific monthly temperatures are not detailed for this introductory course, the average sea temperature around the island hovers near 20.5°C, providing a comfortable environment for your first underwater breaths. Playa Chica, the designated dive site, is known for its calm conditions and clear visibility, ideal for spotting the local fauna that inhabits this protected bay. The shallow depth of 5 meters ensures a relaxed pace, allowing ample time to appreciate the marine ecosystem.

The instructors are experienced professionals dedicated to making your first dive both educational and enjoyable. The program is designed to give you a genuine taste of scuba diving without the commitment of a full certification course, offering a memorable and accessible way to explore the ocean's wonders.
