Scuba Diving Introduction in Castro Urdiales

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the San Guillen ramp, next to the stone bridge of Castro Urdiales.

After selecting the most appropriate diving equipment for each member of the group, we'll give you a brief explanation in which we'll teach you how to handle the material.

Then, we'll perform a series of exercises on the surface in which we'll put into practice the theoretical lessons. Once all the members of the group are comfortable and safe, we'll dive into the waters of the Cantabrian Sea. It'll be an unforgettable diving initiation!

We'll float weightlessly on the seabed. Underwater, we'll be very well accompanied by various specimens of the varied marine fauna of the area such as breams, porpoises, mojarras, anemones, or spider crabs.

After a dive of 30 to 40 minutes, we'll finish the experience by returning to the meeting point.

Schedule

The exact starting time of the activity will depend on the tides of the Cantabrian Sea. However, we'll let you know well in advance the specific time at which we'll enjoy this diving initiation in Castro Urdiales.
