Full description
Discover the magic of scuba diving in Lanzarote and make your holiday truly unforgettable. No experience is needed — just a sense of curiosity and adventure! Begin your journey at Atlantis Diving Lanzarote, a professional SSI dive centre just steps from the sea in Puerto del Carmen. After a warm welcome, you’ll meet your personal instructor, who will guide you every step of the way. In small groups of up to three people, you’ll learn the basics of scuba diving, how to breathe underwater, and communicate safely. Once ready, you’ll head to the beach, where you’ll prepare your equipment and enter the water at your own pace. Discover the volcanic seabed filled with colourful fish, rays, octopuses, and other marine life in calm, crystal-clear waters. Your first dive lasts 30–40 minutes at a maximum depth of 6 metres.

4-Day Freediving Discovery Course
Over 4 days you’ll ease into freediving step by step. You start with simple theory and dry breathing sessions, learning how to relax, breathe efficiently and equalise safely before you ever go deep. Then you move into the water for progressive training: first shallow sessions to practise buoyancy, body position and calm breath-holds, then gradually slightly deeper dives as your confidence grows. Your instructor gives individual feedback in a small group of max. 4 people, so you’re never rushed or pushed beyond your comfort zone.

AIDA Freedive Level 2 Course
Take your freediving further with a complete AIDA Level 2 course in Puerto del Carmen.

In the classroom you’ll explore safety, problem-solving, breathing and relaxation, rescue concepts for confined water and how physics and physiology affect you at depth. Pool sessions let you refine static and dynamic apnea, improve finning and equalisation and build longer, calmer breath-holds. In three open-water sessions you’ll work on line dives to around 10 metres, buddy checks and simple rescue skills so you can dive more confidently and responsibly. All freediving equipment, pool use, insurance during the course, AIDA learning materials and digital Level 2 certification on successful completion are included. 🏝️
