We went 3 days diving with La Restinga. It was amazing!! Everything was super good organized. All the staff were really friendly, had a lot of knowledge and a good sense of humour. They took us to beautiful dive sites, by boat. Muchas gracias!
I did 4 dives over two days at this shop. Sonia was an amazing guide and I had a lot of fun with the team! Saw a lot of beautiful underwater volcanic formations, cool eel garden, and sea creatures. Equipment was in great condition too. Would highly recommend!
Great diving and excellent guide in Jon. Centre very well run with the best boats and coxwains in La Restinga. El Bajon never fails to impress, don't miss the Harbour Corner!
I did my advanced open water with them. Learnt a lot thanks to Adrian. Great teacher. El Baron and El Rincon were my favorite diving spots. Gracias Adrian!
I had a great experience at La Restinga diving with this company. The staff were very professional and attentive. The diving is exquisite. There is so much to see. I will definitely be going back and diving with them again.
Thoroughly recommend if you’re after a diving holiday in the reserve. Well organised and friendly team that respect the wildlife. Night dives are also fantastic.
Fantastic experience with Buceo La Restinga. Thank you Raquel for everything. It was a super week of diving and I enjoyed every minute. Looking forward to coming back.
We have had a beautiful experience diving with La Restinga diving from start to finish and these memories will last a lifetime for all of us. Booking with La Restinga (months in advance..) was easy and we were given comprehensive information and guidance from the start always with warmth and friendliness. We made some changes to the booking closer to our holiday and that was no problem, solutions found, again a positive warmth to all communications. For December it was a little bit windy, it was colder maybe for some but for us coming from Cornwall, UK it was summer daytime temperatures in the sun and spring/Autumn temperatures at night or in the shade. The water was a steady 21 degrees. The diving we chose was a super helpful refresher dive for me after many years of no diving and three newly UK qualified teenagers, and then 4 guided boat dives. The refresher from the shore into the harbour at La Restinga was great fun, plenty to see and re acclimatising was comfortable. Our instructors/guides were very knowledgeable and fun, luckily very good at English - our Spanish definitely needs work! The boat dives were relaxed but professional, we felt like we were in very good hands at all times, the warmth and friendliness of the team flowing through everything. As a family our minds were blown by the joy of sharing time underwater together observing beautiful things in new dimensions with new friends made over two days. We met groups from Madrid who were super kind and we all laughed our way through our Spanglish conversations. What else to say? The area of El Pinar including La Restinga is very relaxed, allow yourself to unwind, connect with everyone and everything around you, what an incredible place to spend time. We are honoured. 🌟🍑🙏🐙🦐🐡💨

1st class diving centre in El Hierro. It's the owners that you go diving with so you can be sure of the high level of care and quality. Great equipment and Claude is also an underwater photographer so you should get some great shots!
A particularly friendly dive company. English, French and Spanish speaking. The shop is clean and professional and the tanks and equipment appear in good order. Guides are fun, knowledgable and patient.
(Translated by Google) I dived this week in the Canaries on the small island: el Hierro In the village of La Restinga with the Meridiano Cero club created by Céline Et Claude seven years ago 👍 I took the 2 Dives per day option I saw magnificent fauna and flora with two beautiful people that’s not pretty 🫶 forced to come back there are almost 30 sites I only saw 4 super nice ones I have to come back 🤞 In this club with Céline and Claude, we are immediately put at ease which eliminates a lot of stress. I have to be careful not to get cold! And yes, I'm a man lol 😂 They were able to provide me with everything I needed. It's excellent. When we are French-speaking in Spain, this is the club we have to choose. And even if you are Spanish 👍 Kisses See you soon 👋 (Original) J’ai Plongé cette semaine au Canaries sur la petite île : el Hierro Au village la Restinga avec le club Meridiano Cero créé par Céline Et Claude il y a sept ans 👍 j’ai pris l’option 2 Plongées par jour j’ai vu une faune et une flore magnifique avec deux personnes magnifiques c’est pas beau ça 🫶 obligé de revenir il y a près de 30 sites j’en ai vu que 4 super agréable Je dois revenir 🤞 Dans ce club avec Céline Et Claude, on est mis à l’aise de suite ce qui supprime beaucoup de stress. Moi je dois faire attention à ne pas avoir froid ! Et oui, je suis un homme lol 😂 ils ont su me fournir tout ce qu’il fallait. C’est excellent. Quand nous sommes francophones en Espagne, c’est le club qu’il faut choisir. Et même si vous êtes Espagnol 👍 Bisous À bientôt 👋
(Translated by Google) As an occasional diver, this club really helped me rediscover diving. The welcome, organization, confidence-building, and professionalism of this French-speaking club are exceptional. Their primary concern is that divers are happy and have a great time. Thank you, it's the case. I'll be back. (Original) Plongeur occasionnel, ce club m'a vraiment fait re-découvrir la plongée. L'accueil, l'organisation, la mise en confiance et le professionnalisme de ce club francophone est exceptionnel. Leur préoccupation première, que le Plongeur soit heureux et en prenne pleins les yeux. Merci c'est le cas. Je reviendrai.
(Translated by Google) Having passed my level 2 with them, I couldn't have dreamed of a better experience 😊 Welcoming, very educational, rigorous, and a great atmosphere. And of course, magnificent sites, super varied (groupers, rays, barracudas, slipper lobsters, nudibranchs, caves, anemones, more common fish, etc.) and dives with a maximum of one boat per site. The Zodiac is also limited in number, so we dive in small groups, which is all the more enjoyable. Thank you again to you (Céline, Claude, and David) 😁 (Original) Passé mon niveau 2 avec eux, je pouvais pas rêver mieux 😊 Accueillants, très pédagogues, rigoureux et bonne ambiance. Et bien sûr des sites magnifiques, super variés (mérous, raies, barracoudas, cigales de mer, nudibranche, grotte, anémones, poissons plus communs, ...) et des plongées avec maximum un bateau par site, Le zodiaque est en plus limité en place, on plonge en petit comité, ce qui est d'autant plus agréable. Encore merci à vous (Céline, Claude et David) 😁
(Translated by Google) Very good French-speaking diving club, but open to other languages, not chauvinistic 😉. 4 days of diving to follow for me, 8 different sites, each more beautiful than the last, between the breathtaking seascapes and all the wildlife present (and there are plenty more to do in La Restinga), adjusted each day according to the weather conditions and the state of the sea. Small club, so small group, perfect for my taste! Here we are not at the factory, good humor is essential but serious supervision! And a level crossing without pressure. Just come back! In any case, don't hesitate to dive with Meridiano Cero. (Original) Très bon club de plongée Francophone, mais ouvert aux autres langues, pas chauvins 😉. 4 jours de plongée à suivre pour moi, 8 sites différents, tous plus beaux les uns que les autres, entre les paysages marins époustouflants et toute la faune présente (et il y en a plein d'autres à faire à La Restinga), ajustés chaque jour selon les conditions météo et l'état de la mer. Petit club, donc petit groupe de palanquée, parfait à mon goût ! Ici on est pas à l'usine, bonne humeur de rigueur mais encadrement sérieux ! Et un passage de niveau sans pression. Plus qu'à revenir ! En tout cas n'hésitez pas à plonger avec Meridiano Cero.
(Translated by Google) Very beautiful dives with Céline and Claude for three days in ideal conditions (small groups). They enthusiastically share their passion and knowledge of the aquatic environment. Plus, the atmosphere is guaranteed on the boat 😄. Looking forward to seeing you again and diving with you again! 🐙🦀🪼🐠🐟🐬 (Original) De très belles plongées avec Céline et Claude durant trois jours dans des conditions idéales ( petites palanquées) . Ils partagent avec enthousiasme leur passion et leur connaissance du milieu aquatique. Avec en plus, l' ambiance assurée sur le bateau 😄. Au plaisir de vous revoir et de replonger avec vous ! 🐙🦀🪼🐠🐟🐬
(Translated by Google) We had an incredible time with Claude and Céline from the Meridiano Cero Diving Club in El Hierro. Their organization is impeccable: everything is simple, well-managed, and we hardly carry the tanks, which is a real plus. The atmosphere is friendly and the groups of divers are small, which makes each outing more enjoyable. For level 2 and 3 divers, or for level 1 training, they are flexible and adapt to all needs. If you are looking for a top-notch diving club in El Hierro, don't hesitate. It's the perfect place. We will definitely be back! (Original) Nous avons passé un moment incroyable avec Claude et Céline du Club de plongée Meridiano Cero à El Hierro. Leur organisation est impeccable : tout est simple, bien géré et on ne porte quasiment pas les blocs, ce qui est un vrai plus. L'ambiance est conviviale et les groupes de plongeurs sont petits, ce qui rend chaque sortie plus agréable. Pour des plongeurs niveaux 2 et 3, ou pour une formation niveau 1, ils sont flexibles et s'adaptent à tous les besoins. Si vous cherchez un club de plongée au top à El Hierro, n'hésitez pas. C'est l'endroit parfait. On reviendra, c'est sûr !

Great diving center! Very professional and for the best price compared to the others. The instructors where welcoming and warm and took us to the nicest diving sites on the island. highly recommended, defiantly will come again.
Great dive centre and very knowledgeable and friendly staff. I did the Try a Dive, they take you out to sea in a RIB and you get 30 mins diving plus some snorkeling at the end. Highly recommended 👌
Absolutely fantastic experience! Iñaki and Vanessa were incredibly kind and professional from the moment we arrived. Their warm welcome made us feel instantly at ease, and their passion for diving really shines through. The whole setup is well-organized, safe, and clearly run with care. Highly recommended for anyone looking to dive with people who truly love what they do.
Had a great couple days' diving with a nice group. Staff were friendly and relaxed. Included accomodation was very good. We divided El Bajón and three other sites and saw everything I was hoping for. Will be back!
It was amazing! We did the open water PADI certification and we were very well received by inhaqui, graciela and jesus. We felt very safe, we learned a lot and had a lot of fun! We’ll def come back next year!
Great diving centre with a friendly team. The atmosphere was relaxed, yet with focus on safety. Highly recommended!
Beautiful location and excellent staff !!! Best dive shop in La Restinga
Everything was well explained, we had a really nice experience, they are gentle and competent.

Damiana and Julian are the perfect hosts to keep you happy and safe. Both are extra ordinary guides in dive spots and wildlife. Their equipment is kept and maintained in perfect conditions. As Instructors they are super competent and able to provide a huge knowledge beyond each course. We spent three vacations with Arrecifal and each time Dami and Juli where able to make it as special and joyful as possible. If you are looking for a individual dive experience - This is your Dive Center!!
Great center and fantastic instructors. Julio & Damiana went the extra mile to make us feel comfortable and enjoy our time in the water. Eventually, it felt like we were diving with friends rather than with instructors from a diving center. The sea & marine life around La Restinga are beautiful & the visibility is great. Highly recommended!
Great experience with Arrecifal! Dives were super cool and guides are very nice, they are very clear during briefing. They speak different langages and are very passionate. We had the chance to dive with one of the instructor who is underwater photographer ! The dive center help us with accommodation and car rental. We recommend !
They were the most amazing and accommodating group of people! My friend had to leave, and they still let me do the open water course alone, so I even got one-on-one training. I had the pleasure of working with Paula, who was not only a fantastic teacher but also a fun person to be around. They were supportive the whole time and really showed me some fantastic spots for my final open water dives. One of the owners, Damiana, really made me feel like part of the family and made sure the whole experience was fun. I would 100% recommend them to any type of diver.
I recently dived with Arrecifal and everything was perfect! Julian is an amazing instructor who is keen to share his knowledge and make you a better diver. Every member of the team is very approachable and friendly. I would certainly recommend this dive centre to everyone that wants to dive El Hierro!! 🙂
Damiana and Julian were great dive leaders. We felt very welcome straightaway and enjoyed the dives we did with them. They took us to some great dive sites and explained them well beforehand. The equipment was very good and we felt we were in good hands. They were also very helpful with giving us tips about things to do in El Hierro. Would definitely recommend this dive centre!
Just returned from diving with Arrecifal and had one of the best diving experiences ever! The owners/dive masters were fantastic. We did a refresher one day which was super helpful and organized. The dives sites we experienced were unique with the volcanic formations as well as a lot of fishes! I cannot recommend Arrecifal enough! I hope my husband and I can return.
Amazing Dive Center. Warm welcome, crew takes care of you more like a guest than like a regular customer. Also a lot nature friendly oriented, respectful of wildlife and seabed during the dives. And on land too, they added filters to the sinks. The ocean starts there :) A big thank you to Arrecifal crew

Very informative information center that gives a good understanding of life cycle of all the Canary islands. In the second building you get to see a very nice short dramatic movie on the impressive last under water 2011–12 El Hierro eruption. The two buildings are separated by a short outside track through a nice sample of real life volcanic effects but this is not sheltered (so no luck when it rains)
Such an interesting visit, but read the big board before going in, that way the quiz half way round will make more sense! Also, buy the 'passport' from.tourist information it's good value
In every Interpretation Center here in El Hierro the personnel are so nice, so attentive, so kind, so welcoming, so willing to help you have the best experience on the island! Sergio was so nice and accurate with us!
Very nice and informative centre. Very interesting information about the most recent underwater volcanic eruption including video footage and plenty of photographs. Also particularly interesting for me information was explanation how the island of El Hierro evolved.
We visited the Volcanological Interpretation Center today. We loved the exposition and the enlightening explation of the Island's birth and geolocical facets of and faces of the vulcanic activities in the past. Beautifully done, loved the 'lava garden' and the path through it, that was created. Also very fascinating to see the documentation and video show of the birth of the latest volcano off the shore of Restinga (still just below sea level, but who knows how long that will stay like that?!) :-) We had obtained a museum passport for the island, and this was the second highlight of the four we ticked off to date.
A great place to learn more about El Hierro and its volcanic eruptions.
Very disappointing visit for such an interesting topic. Many screens didn’t work and the amount of information was appalling. Can’t recommend.
Very interesting particularly if you take the time to read the panels in the first building (QR translations in English and German). The exterior path could do with a lot more explanations particularly for those of us that are not geologists! Second building deals primarily with eruptions in 2011/12..some interesting videos. Although a shame that the archeological/architectural elements are not better exposed.

(Translated by Google) The best diving center on the island. Family treatment, good facilities and a wide variety of diving spots depending on the sea conditions. Antonio knows that sea inside out, and makes any diver, from the most novice to the most experienced, enjoy its waters. La Restinga has incredible volcanic bottoms, good visibility and lots of marine life. (Original) El mejor centro de buceo de la isla. Trato familiar, buenas instalaciones y gran variedad de puntos de buceo según las condiciones del mar. Antonio conoce al dedillo ese mar, y hace que cualquier buzo, desde el más novel al más experimentado, disfrute de sus aguas. La Restinga tiene fondos volcánicos increíbles, buena visibilidad y mucha vida marina.
(Translated by Google) I am an advanced diver, with experience around the world and I couldn't ask for more than a week of diving with this center. Family atmosphere from the first moment, great in all aspects. Antonio knows the precise places where you can enjoy the incredible life of the reserve in a totally respectful way. A perfect example of how professionalism is not at odds with fun. I will return to dive in La Restinga soon and without a doubt I will do it again with them! (Original) Soy un buzo avanzado, con experiencia alrededor de todo el mundo y no puedo pedir más de la semana de buceo con este centro. Ambiente familiar desde el primer momento, genial en todos los aspectos. Antonio sabe los sitios precisos donde disfrutar de la increíble vida de la reserva de forma totalmente respetuosa. Un ejemplo perfecto de cómo la profesionalidad no está reñida con la diversión. Volveré pronto a bucear en La Restinga y sin duda lo haré de nuevos con ellos!
(Translated by Google) Last November we were diving with Antonio for 10 days. They were our first dives in El Hierro and it more than met our expectations. The volcanic bottoms are spectacular and there is a lot of life. Antonio welcomed us as if we had known each other for years. We enjoyed diving and many moments out of the water. He managed our accommodation and car rental. Everything was perfect.... Thank you (Original) El pasado Noviembre estuvimos buceando con Antonio 10 dias. Eran nuestros primeros buceos en El Hierro y cumplió nuestras expectativas con creces. Los fondos volcánicos son espectaculares y hay mucha vida. Antonio nos acogió como si nos conociéramos hacia años. Disfrutamos de los buceos y de muchos momentos fuera del agua. Nos gestionó el alojamiento y el alquiler del coche. Todo fue perfecto.... Gracias
(Translated by Google) We have spent some great days with Antonio in El Tamboril. Antonio is an old sea dog who knows perfectly the currents and diving spots of La Restinga, he enjoys his work and it shows, he has a Canarian salt shaker... if you go you run the risk of wanting to return. (Original) Hemos pasado unos días geniales con Antonio en El Tamboril. Antonio es un viejo lobo de mar que conoce a la perfección las corrientes y puntos de inmersión de La Restinga, disfruta con su trabajo y se nota, tiene un salero canario... que si vas corres el riesgo de querer volver.
(Translated by Google) I have had the pleasure of meeting Antonio and the truth is that the involvement and service he provides is unbeatable. Highly recommended. I recommend El Tamboril Diving Center for diving in El Hierro, Canary Islands (Original) He tenido el placer de conocer a Antonio y la verdad es que la implicación y el servicio que da es inmejorable.

(Translated by Google) Antonio treated us very well. We dived ourselves with him, at a good price, and he took us to good dive spots, as we asked, given that time permitted. We will recommend the center. (Original) Antonio nos trató muy bien. Buceamos nosotros solos con él, a buen precio, y nos llevó a buenos puntos de buceo, como le pedimos, dado que el tiempo lo permitió. Recomendaremos el centro.

This is truly among the best dive centers I have seen in the world. The facilities are super clean, the equipment is in perfect shape and the owners create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It becomes very apparent that the owners are good friends being passionate about diving and marine life. Never experienced something like that in a dive center. The briefings are in English and Spanish, very detailed and the dives are just amazing. The dive guides really know the sites and care a lot about the environment and marine life. El Hierro is a perfect dive site for both, beginners and advanced divers with a very vibrant and unique marine life. You will find everything from small animals to hammerheads and whale sharks. Definitely recommend to visit La Restinga and to dive with Tagoro!
I had an awesome time with Tagoro Dive whilst on a five day diving trip with friends! The crew was super friendly and made everything feel personal. Loved the little touches like coffee in the morning and tea on the boat. They were really professional and made sure we were safe the whole time. Plus, their enthusiasm for showing us around their beautiful environment was contagious. The detailed debriefing panels are top! I highly recommend Tagoro Dive for a few days of diving fun!
Best dive centre I've been in, I had an amazing experience with Tagoro Dive. The team is professional, friendly, and passionate about what they do. They made us feel safe and welcomed from the beginning, you can feel the good energy just entering through the door. The dive sites around El Hierro are absolutely stunning: clear waters, volcanic landscapes, and a high variety of marine life. The equipment was top-notch, and everything was perfectly organized. As a beginner or an experienced diver, I highly recommend Tagoro Dive. Can’t wait to return and dive with them again!!
I would give 6 stars if I could! I did my Advanced Open Water certification plus Deep Diving specialty with Tagoro Dive, and couldn't have asked for better teachers and guides to the underwater world of El Hierro. I ended up logging 12 dives at Tagoro, and they were all a blast, with clear briefings and debriefings, great organization, good equipment, and new things to discover underwater every day. Plus, on my very last dive, I had the luck and privilege to see the elusive Tiburon Solrayo (Odontaspis ferox), a species of shark that can be observed only in a handful of spots in the whole world! Marisa, Ivan, Anto, David, Pili, Adrian, I really have to thank all of you in the team for such a fantastic experience! Can't wait to dive with you again in the future :)
Tagoro runs some of the best dives Ive been to. They place great emphasis on safety without being too strict or pampering. In briefings, they teach divers to navigate currents and be safe when the situations were challenging. My own oversights were gently corrected while good habits acknowledged, these are qualities that great instructors embody. Ive had the pleasure of having the pillars of the Tagoro team and their family leading my dives and/or being my buddy on dives. Marisa has a keen eye for spotting tiny Harlequin crabs in corals, Adri knows the addresses of unique creatures like the fang toothed yellow moray with its glassy teeth, David I am grateful for recommending Tacoron at night, and Anto has the ability to point out slipper lobsters and demonstrate how to make bubble rings. Evan pointed out expertly camouflaged flounders, Jaime kept a watchful eye over me, and Pille pointed out an unforgettably beautiful pregnant small toothed sand tiger shark that must have been 4m long! Their energy injects a vibrancy amongst all the divers making each trip fun filled. Last but not least, they always pick up trash either below or above the water, exemplifying conservationalism and love for ones environment. I wholeheartedly recommend them. Thanks for a fantastic 4 days of diving!
I truly recommend this diving center! Great atmosphere and professional staff. The equipment is new. I felt well taken care of. It's one of the best diving's because of the amazing guides and people 💙 and of course beautiful underwater world. I hope to come back someday to dive more😜 Warm regards!
The best diving centre ever- everything there makes you feel safe, comfortable and welcome. Top and new equipment, no rush, help and support whenever you need, and a strong coffee;) on top of that, pricing is really reasonable, it's absolutely worth more than what they charge. El Hierro itself is definitely something to consider when it comes to diving, so far beats other Canary Islands by far;)
I had the great pleasure of doing 7 immersions with Tagoro recently and I can’t recommend this base more. After having lost interest in diving for years I found so much joy and passion in it again and that is thanks to people like Marisa, David and Iván. I can’t wait to return to the island soon and see more of the wonders of the waters of this magnificent island. Thanks for everything!

We are very satisfied. Before diving, the instructor explained everything we needed to know later underwater. The service in the office was excellent. Great new equipment. We felt safe. After diving, we received an extra package of photos from the dive. At the end, we could take a warm shower in the office. I highly recommend it.
I just finished 2 great days of diving with Buceo El Bajón. Small groups, fun staff, and amazing dives. If you love diving, El Hierro should be on your bucket list. The visibility, rock formations, and marine life are all incredible. Before booking my trip I had lots of small logistics questions, which were quickly answered and very helpful. Most of them had nothing to do with diving , but Ginella took the time to answer everything. I did 4 dives in total, including 2 at El Bajón, the most famous dive in the area. I can’t imagine a better experience and I’m sure I will be back next year!
For starters, I would like to apologise to the incredible team at Buceo El Bajón for how long overdue this review is! I dove with BeB for three days in April, and each dive was better than the last. I booked the accommodation package; it was a brilliant value, and staying directly above the dive centre in my own (spacious, immaculate, sunshine-filled) flat could not have been a better experience - especially getting to take a hot shower immediately after putting away equipment. The team at the dive center weren't only knowledgeable and safe; they were also *fun*. I laughed so much and felt really well taken care of - and trusted as an experienced diver. I noticed that most of their online reviews were in Spanish, and indeed, I was the only person on the boat who wasn't fluent in Spanish - but I sure got to put years of study into practice, and if there was something I didn't understand, there was always someone on the boat who could explain it to me in English. To the instructors, boat captain, and owners, thank you for overwhelmingly positive memories. Also... El Hierro is a really special place - one I would love to come back to. Hold tight during the Bajón dive, and watch where you grab the rock!
We did our PADI Advanced Open water at El Bajon and also some fun dives & we are so happy we decided to do it at this dive centre! Most of the instructors speak English & the vibe there is super nice and relaxed. Also, the divespots were very beautiful and diverse :) We had an amazing couple of days of diving there & I would recommend it to everyone!
Great place, very professional and looked after us very well. We've only dived a handful of times, and the refresher provided at the start was very thorough and well done. Our group was a mix of Spanish, French and English and the instructors handled the languages very well. Very safe and well organised, prob a good place to do a PADI, would def recommend
Amazing diving center in la Restinga. Even though my Spanish was really bad at the time I was there, they organized an instructor that spoke german as well as English. Thank you Tom, you make one of the finest, easy going and fun instructor I've ever had. All are really kind and respectful. The boat is a little party boat which gives you the "fiesta" feeling on the top:). Fear prices, great instructions and good equipment. I've made my advanced open water course as well as additional 4 dives. Even saw a manta up close! Avery big thank you from Switzerland! 🤙
We did our first dive at the center and it was amazing! Everything very well explained so we felt save and at ease during the dive. The people there are super friendly and open while obviously knowing what they are doing :) At first, we were a bit turned off by the prospect of doing the dive in the harbour area, but the la Restinga harbour is amazingly beautiful and full of wildlife :) there were turtles and cuttlefish amongst other funny creatures and we got to pet a sea cucumber 🥒! Horray for this place ♥️
We had a great time! We've seen different fish species, black coral, eel and an amazing volcanic landscape over and under water. The perfect place for scuba diving! Check out the images in my YouTube channel @Sierra into the Wild

Jeff has a great passion for diving and his enthusiasm paired with excellent customer service makes your dive trips truly unforgettable. At the welcome he offered me and my non diving mum a cup of coffee, then drove us across the island for the best diving sites. The equipment is top notch, his instructor knowledge and approach very professional to accommodate to every diver personally, make the experience very comfortable. After the double dives he offered us refreshments and suggested the best places to visit. His dive center specializes in shore diving with free transport around the island which is truly unique. Very positive impression and amazing diving experience!
Didn't dive with Jeff, but from the moment I called to get some info, to when we met, he was very nice, answered all my questions, and made me feel comfortable. I apparently had a lot of luck and had very good conditions (dove in January) and the two dives were very good. I particularly liked Barco Chino (Chinese Boat) which has a spot with light-colored rocks that create a small heaven-like light.
(Translated by Google) September 2019, departure for adventure... El Hierro, the smallest island of the Canaries, is far from the tourist factory that its sisters are, but it is worth it... Once arrived, we are welcomed by Jeff, the generalissimo boss of El Hierro Taxi Diver. We dived a total of 6 times with him. 5 dives in the magnificent reserve and one dive in the north of the island at La Caleta, it is the only one that offers diving in the north of the island and you ABSOLUTELY have to take advantage of it! Jeff bends over backwards for these customers, we really had a wonderful week thanks to him! We recommend it with all eyes closed and look forward to returning soon. (Original) Septembre 2019, départ pour l'aventure... El Hierro, plus petite île des Canaries est loin de l'usine à touristes que sont ses soeurs, mais ça se mérite... Une fois arrivés, nous sommes accueillis par Jeff, le généralissime patron de El Hierro Taxi Diver. Nous plongeons au total 6 fois avec lui. 5 plongées dans la magnifique réserve et une plongée dans le nord de l'île à la Caleta, c'est le seul qui propose de plonger dans le nord de l'île et il faut ABSOLUMENT en profiter! Jeff se plie en 4 pour ces clients, nous avons réellement passé une semaine magnifique grâce à lui! Nous le recommandons les yeux fermés et nous réjouissons d'y retourner bientôt.

Günther is a great person trying his best to make your diving enjoyable. He took incredible pics of us with no cost just for us to keep incredible memories. He also invited us to his home and show his cameras and equipment. Humble and always kind to us. Even though this year it has been more difficult for him because of covid restrictions to German people (his main customers) he keeps going happy and doing his best. It has been a real pleasure for me to know him. Keep safe and have fun!
(Translated by Google) I decided to go to Fan DIVING in El Hierro at relatively short notice because of positive comments online and I have to say that it was a complete success. Very quick contact, competent advice on arrival and accommodation and then personal pickup from the airport. Jutta and Günther's base is small but nice. Everything the diver needs is there and Günther gives the perfect instructions. He is very concerned about safety and would rather check too much than too little. Very calming. Since he has been in the business for a long time, he has a lot of experience and is a great buddy and guide. He can almost read the sea, sees currents and unrest that the rest of us hardly suspect. Already from the boat. If he thinks it works, then it works, even for the average diver. The diving sites are great, wonderful underwater landscapes and Günther also knows where the fish live, even if they want to hide. To top it all off, he also takes great pictures that you can get afterwards for a small fee, they are really worth it. I felt safe and comfortable and it certainly wasn't the last time I was there. In general, as a diver you should have some experience to dive on El Hierro, although there is something for everyone. But it goes very deep down there and you have to expect currents occasionally. With a little routine it becomes more relaxed. (Original) Ich bin aufgrund positiver Kommentare im Netz relativ kurzentschlossen nach El Hierro zu Fan DIVING und muss sagen, es war rundum gelungen. Sehr schnelle Kontaktaufnahme, kompetente Beratung zur Anreise und Unterkunft und dann noch persönliche Abholung vom Flughafen. Die Basis von Jutta und Günther ist klein aber fein. Alles da was der Taucher braucht und von Günther gibt es die perfekte Einweisung. Er ist sehr auf Sicherheit bedacht und kontrolliert lieber einmal zu viel als zu wenig. Sehr beruhigend. Da er schon sehr lange im Geschäft ist, hat er sehr große Erfahrung und ist ein super Buddy und Guide. Er kann das Meer nahezu lesen, sieht Strömungen und Unruhen die wir anderen kaum ahnen. Schon vom Boot aus. Wenn er meint es geht, dann geht es, auch für den Durchschnittstaucher. Die Tauchplätze sind super, wunderbare Unterwasserlandschaften und Günther weiß auch noch wo die Fische wohnen, selbst wenn sie sich verstecken wollen. Zu allem Überfluss macht er auch noch super Bilder die man hinterher gegen einen kleinen Obolus bekommen kann, sie sind es wirklich wert. Ich habe mich sicher und wohl gefühlt und war bestimmt nicht das letzte Mal dort. Allgemein sollte man als Taucher etwas Erfahrung mitbringen um auf El Hierro zu tauchen, auch wenn für alle was dabei ist. Es geht aber schon sehr tief runter dort und mit Strömung muss man gelegentlich rechnen. Mit etwas Routine taucht es sich da entspannter.
(Translated by Google) One of the best diving centers I have visited. Thank you Günther and Jutta for the wonderful time. Safety is always Günther's top priority, followed by tips for taking photos and filming underwater. Günther's pictures and films are great. I hope I can come back again. (an example picture from Günther) (Original) Einer der besten Tauchbasen die ich besucht habe. Danke Günther und Jutta für die schöne Zeit. Sicherheit steht bei Günther stets an erster Stelle, danach kommen die Tipps zum Fotografieren und Filmen unter Wasser. Die Bilder und Filme von Günther sind mega. Hoffe ich kann noch mal wiederkommen. (ein Beispielbild von Günther)
(Translated by Google) Dear Jutta, dear Günter, Thank you very much for the all-round support at your diving center. Everything here is very well organized and safety-conscious. Jutta, the calming pole in the team, has everything under control outside of diving and Günter, the diving and photography genius, is perfection as a boddy and guide. A great team! In the last 25 years, I have never seen the base show us the newly created underwater pictures (!!!) for about 5 minutes after diving. Günter advises everyone on diving and photography if you want to know. What I found particularly good is: there was never a rush! Everything could be done in peace and everyone was allowed to dive for as long as they wanted, of course up to a maximum of 50 bar (as safety requires). The 13 days were a great time with you and when we come to El Hierro again, we will dive with your diving center again. Best regards Claudia, Thorsten, Stefan and Jürgen (Original) Liebe Jutta, lieber Günter, vielen Dank für die Rundumbetreuung in Eurer Tauchbasis. Hier ist alles sehr gut organisiert und auf Sicherheit bedacht. Jutta, der ruhende Pol im Team hat organisatorisch außerhalb des tauchens alles im Griff und Günter, das Tauch- und Fotogenie ist als Boddy und Guide die Perfektion. Ein tolles Team ! Ich habe in den letzten 25 Jahren noch nie erlebt, dass die Basis uns nach dem Tauchen noch ca. 5 Minuten lang die eben entstandenen Unterwasserbilder (!!!) gezeigt hat. Günter berät alle im Tauchen und im Fotografieren, sofern man es wissen will. Was ich ganz besonders gut fand ist: es herrschte niemals Hektik ! Alles konnte man in Ruhe ausführen und jeder durfte tauchen so lange er wollte, natürlich bis max. 50 Bar (wie es die Sicherheit erfordert). Die 13 Tage waren eine tolle Zeit mit Euch und wenn wir wieder mal nach El Hierro kommen, dann tauchen wir wieder mit Eurer Tauchbasis. Liebe Grüße Claudia, Thorsten, Stefan und Jürgen
(Translated by Google) Jutta and Günter are incredibly helpful. The diving is perfectly organized; First exit at 9:30 a.m., second at 2:30 p.m....break in between to chill out. We felt absolutely safe at all times. Günter and Jorge are perfect diving guides who can also give experienced divers help and tips. Diving is done in small groups based on skills and without stress... Safety is the top priority. Günter is also always available to give advice and support when taking photos. We found critical comments about the Zodiac that we cannot understand, the boat is in absolutely good condition. However, if you are looking for one for 14 or more people with a disco system for arrival and departure, as other bases on El Hierro use, you will not be served here.... (Original) Jutta und Günter sind unglaublich hilfsbereit. Das Tauchen ist perfekt durchorganisiert; erste Ausfahrt 9.30, zweite um 14.30....dazwischen Pause zum Chillen. Wir haben uns jederzeit absolut sicher gefühlt. Günter und Jorge sind perfekte Tauchführer, die auch erfahrenen Tauchern noch Hilfestellungen und Tips geben können. Getaucht wird in kleiner Gruppe nach Skills und ohne Stress... Sicherheit steht obenan. Auch beim Fotografieren steht Günter jederzeit mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Wir haben kritische Anmerkungen zum Zodiac gefunden, die wir nicht nachvollziehen können, das Boot ist absolut in Schuß. Wer allerdings eines für 14 oder mehr Personen mit Discoanlage für die An- und Abfahrt sucht, wie andere Basen auf El Hierro sie einsetzen, wird hier nicht bedient....
(Translated by Google) I went to the diving center at short notice and was able to book a dive...unfortunately only one. I'm still a beginner and still wobble a lot. Günter showed me a few things how I can improve. I also felt totally safe and completely relaxed. Günter still had his camera with him and took beautiful pictures and videos. I can fully recommend Jutta and Günter's diving center...you will experience great dives. (Original) Ich bin kurzfristig zum Tauchcenter und konnte einen Tauchgang buchen...leider nur einen. Ich bin noch Anfänger und wackel noch viel. Günter hat mir gleich noch ein paar Dinge gezeigt, wie ich mich verbessern kann. Außerdem habe ich mich total sicher gefühlt und war absolut relaxt. Günter hatte noch seine Kamera dabei und hat schöne Bilder und Videos erstellt. Ich kann das Tauchcenter von Jutta und Günter uneingeschränkt empfehlen...ihr werdet super Tauchgänge erleben.
(Translated by Google) Diving with Günther is safe diving with sense and understanding. The base is wonderfully located at the harbor. A short walk takes us from the diving center directly to the boat. The heavy equipment is transported directly to the boat by transporter. The diving center itself is very well maintained and absolutely functional. Everything a diver's heart desires is there. The dive sites can be reached quickly by boat and are simply beautiful. If Günther has his camera with him, you can even get one or two nice photos from the dive. It's really unique how much love Günther works here with. We always felt very safe and were able to absolutely enjoy the dive sites. We'd love to come back! (Original) Tauchen mit Günther ist sicheres tauchen mit Sinn und Verstand. Die Basis ist wunderbar am Hafen gelegen. Ein kleiner Fußmarsch führt uns von der Tauchbasis direkt zum Boot. Die schwere Ausrüstung wird direkt bis zum Boot mit dem Transporter gefahren. Die Tauchbasis selbst ist sehr gut gepflegt und absolut zweckmäßig ausgestattet. Alles da, was das Taucherherz begehrt. Die Tauchplätze sind mit dem Boot schnell erreicht und einfach wunderschön. Wenn Günther seine Kamera mit dabei hat, bekommt man sogar noch das eine oder andere schöne Fotos vom Tauchgang. Wirklich einmalig, mit wie viel Liebe Günther hier arbeitet. Wir haben uns stets sehr sicher aufgehoben gefühlt und konnten die Tauchplätze absolut genießen. Wir kommen gerne wieder!
(Translated by Google) In September 2018 I had the pleasure of doing my first dives in the Atlantic off La Restinga! I chose Fan Diving as my diving center. Small diving center - well maintained and very well organized by Jutta and Günther! In addition to the great and varied dives, Günther also shared his wealth of experience/passion for underwater photography and video - as a matter of course he passed on important tips and tricks! That's why I'll be doing more dives with Fan Diving on El Hierro in 2019 - I'm really looking forward to it!!! (Original) Im September 2018 hatte ich das Vergnügen meine ersten Tauchgänge im Atlantik vor La Restinga machen zu dürfen! Als Tauchbasis hatte ich mir Fan Diving ausgesucht. Kleine Tauchbasis - gepflegt und sehr gut organisiert von Jutta und Günther! Neben den tollen und abwechslungsreichen Tauchgänge ließ Günther auch an seinem Erfahrungsschatz/Leidenschaft Unterwasserfotografie & Video teil haben - wie selbstverständlich gab wichtig Tipps & Tricks weiter! Darum werde ich in 2019 weitere Tauchgänge mit Fan Diving auf El Hierro machen - ich freue mich riesig darauf !!!
