9. LanzarteFirst Scuba Dive Experience for Children8-10 aged

One-off diving lesson for children aged 8 and over. A great gift or reward. Instead of another Barbie or Lego type gift, why not think about something developing for your child. We meet about an hour before entering the water. First we teach the children basic water safety rules, explain what we will be doing underwater. Then, finally, the toddler has the opportunity to dive in complete diving equipment. For many children, the dream of discovering underwater life and interacting a little closer with Nemo than just staring at the TV arises. And very often, the parents themselves decide on the occasion for such an initial lesson. Theory and diving lessons for children from the age of 8. In the pool, we present a simple theory - the basic principles of diving - that children can understand. In the ocean classes we teach the first breath under water and the children learn the most important principle of diving - letting go of bubbles. During the class we play games and take photos as a souvenir of the first dive! We always pick you up in the morning from your hotel and go to the centre together. After the theoretical part, we go together to the diving beach. After the dive, we change and go back to the hotel.

What people are saying about Puerto del Carmen

Had a fantastic day today with the the team at Atlantis Dive Centre, Lanzarote. Our instructor Graizka was very patient and the ultimate professional with my son Matthew (aged 10 ) and myself aged 60:) . I never thought diving would be so much fun and cannot wait until the next opportunity.We felt 100% safe at all times and would highly recommend booking your diving experience with Atlantis Lanzarote

I really couldn't have asked for a better diving experience. The instructor was super-friendly. He carefully listened to all I had to say about previous diving experience, and answered all my questions thoughtfully. The diving itself was superb, and it felt very comforting to have such a mindful, attentive and empathetic support under the water.

Atlantis dive Centre is just superb all round , from the booking to the information given to the instructors. I loved it and my 12 year old was in heaven. Thank you all.

Really well organised and explained. Very enjoyable and suitable for all levels

Great diving point and professional staff, also friendly. Top experience
