Excellent experience, fab team - Highly highly recommended! This was our first ever experience trying out scuba diving: the team are super friendly, knowledgeable and patient (even when giving me the same instructions 300 times because I can't seem to close my mouth underwater 🫣). As a first timer, I had such a gorgeous time seeing all the marine life that is within a few dozen metres of the beach, you'd never know it without giving this a go! I felt completely safe at all times (once I closed my mouth) and would encourage anyone who is interested in trying out scuba diving for the first time to book a session. Huge thanks to David and Liam, but most of all to Chris who had the patience of a saint and made the experience so memorable. You were all fab and I really hope to be back next time I'm in Medano, perhaps with some more experience!

In safe hands, gentle pace, great sights underwater, paid extra €10 for underwater video and photos. - We did the try dive and felt in very safe hands. We were both a little nervous with it being our first time but the instructor, Ismael went at a gentle pace. We saw lots of wonderful fish and other finds under the water and Ismael was on hand to help with any little adjustments and checked in with us very often. We also paid the €10 extra to have an underwater video and photos taken which is a wonderful idea. Very impressed!

Better impossible - Medanodive is an Enterprise of 10. I had personal problems being able to go to my course and was changed on several occasions without problem, always with a very close attention from Helen. The diving baptism I did with Isma and it was like going diving with a friend, better impossible. Explain everything perfect, worry that you are always well and enjoying yourself, are watching to teach you everything possible during the dive, and make the course pass you by in the blink of an eye. I recommend 100% this company, and 10 for Isma.

A memorable day - A totally memorable experience made with my group of students of 17 people. The attitude and willingness of the Médano Diving team was excellent and at the end of the day all the boys underlined that it had been a fantastic day with both diving and snorkeling baptism. We emphasize the seriousness and professionalism, along with the sympathy, of the entire team of Médano Diving. It is rating that they work with gusto and dedication. See you soon. Greetings and thank you very much.

Great initiation experience - I wanted to enjoy this experience for a long time, and thanks to a friend I was able to fulfill it. At first, when you want to have this experience, the most important thing is to meet close professionals, and with Ishmael and Chris we find them. From the first moment they were very close and friendly, and made things easier for us. In the end Ishmael was our instructor and the experience was very good. Being submerged is something extraordinary.....a new world that you had previously seen in a limited way, opens to your eyes. Without a doubt, these guys work it out to make your experience something to remember, and especially repeat. I consider your close and professional treatment to be an added value in your work as an Enterprise, and of course, they are absolutely recommended. I'll repeat.

Diving Baptism - Chris and Ismael are very friendly and very professional. They really take the time to explain. The diving spot was also great, we could see turtle, trumpet fish, crabs and a whole bunch of colorful fish. Again thank you to them for this beautiful dive

Snorkeling - We have had a great time, a unique experience, we went with our 8-year-old son and saw the great diversity of fish in the area, we have to highlight the pleasant and professional of Herna and Ishmael (the instructors)

The best day of my life! - When I booked with Tripadvisor, I received a personal WhatsApp message a few days before my dive just confirming everything and introducing themselves, and giving me the opportunity to ask them any questions beforehand which I found extremely helpful. I confirmed the time and location (5 minute walk from El Medano beach), and felt instantly welcomed upon arrival. Everyone spoke perfect English (and Spanish of course), and I instantly felt like a friend despite travelling to Tenerife alone. We first went out for breakfast, it was myself, the two dive masters, two other diving tourists and two young men on placement to get their diving qualifications, to a local cafe where everyone was so kind and friendly, the masters were full of banter with each other and we all laughed and got to know each other. I then went with one of the masters to the location where we would dive, where I was assured that we would only enter the water when I was confident. He showed me all the gear and went over absolutely everything I needed to know, answering any questions I had (even silly ones). Worth mentioning that just before we had breakfast, we were lucky enough to see a family of 7-8 dolphins playing in the water - though I can’t guarantee this will happen every time! After putting all the gear on, we walked into the water. He made me start by just putting my face into the water to practice breathing, which took me a while to grasp, but this made no difference to the amount of time spent diving. Once ready, and after going over all the hand signals one last time, we went under the water and I was astonished by the amount of fish, crabs, angel sharks, octopi, and everything that I saw. At one point I felt I couldn’t even swim through some of the fish. It was genuinely incredible. He took so many photos on his underwater camera which the company email to you for free. It is some of the best money I’ve ever spent, it’s total value for what you pay. I can honestly see myself going back to this same diving school every year, even just for breakfast! Thank you so much everyone!!
