What makes this activity special? A truly unique experience in Europe. The Golden Shark is one of the few tourist submarines operating in Europe and offers the opportunity for real underwater diving as a passenger, without the need for scuba diving. From Puerto de Mogán you can discover an underwater landscape that is normally only available to divers, including “La Atlántida”, our artificial reef project created to favor the regeneration of the seabed, as well as the wrecks and other elements that are part of the route. More than a simple excursion, it is an opportunity to discover the ocean from within a real submarine and get to know a project that combines tourism, exploration and conservation of the marine environment. A different experience to share with family, couples or friends and discover one of the lesser known faces of Gran Canaria: its underwater world.

Worth the money. Friendly staff
Make sure you have cash if you want the toilet as only paid public toilets by the boarding area. No drinks allowed for safety reasons but place to leave them while you are on board the sub. The experience itself was good and the staff were friendly. Only €5 for two souvenir photos which I thought was a bargain.

One experience that shouldn't be missed.
Really nice overall experience. I really recommend. I saw some people saying they could see things properly. We're able to see the bottom of the sea very clearly, lots of fish and quite interesting and massive shipwreck.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much! 😊 We’re delighted you enjoyed the experience and got to see the seabed, fish and shipwreck so clearly. We hope to welcome you back on board!

Why this scores 54
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Gran Canaria: Underwater adventure in Puerto de Mogán.: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Gran Canaria.
How much does Gran Canaria: Underwater adventure in Puerto de Mogán. cost?
+
Prices start at $43 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Gran Canaria usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Gran Canaria: Underwater adventure in Puerto de Mogán. take?
+
Plan for about 0.7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Gran Canaria is not rushed.
Is Gran Canaria: Underwater adventure in Puerto de Mogán. worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 195 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Gran Canaria, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Gran Canaria: Underwater adventure in Puerto de Mogán.?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Gran Canaria: Underwater adventure in Puerto de Mogán. suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Gran Canaria: Underwater adventure in Puerto de Mogán.?
+
Around 68 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Gran Canaria can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Gran Canaria and add a light layer if any part of the 0.7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Gran Canaria: Underwater adventure in Puerto de Mogán. start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Gran Canaria within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Gran Canaria?
+
On Outty we rank every Gran Canaria experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Puerto de Mogán: Coastal Cruise with Optional Snorkeling & Lunch, Guided tour of the Banana World, Gran Canaria Red Canyon: Small Group Tour & Local Food ツ. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Gran Canaria?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Gran Canaria?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

Where is the meeting point for Gran Canaria: Underwater adventure in Puerto de Mogán.?
+
Our boarding area is located in the South Dyke Swamp, at the end of the spit of the port of Playa de Mogán. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
