Taster Dive - Phenomenal
We were thankful they managed to fit us in at the last minute and even put on an additional dive. Pre communication was excellent. Just the two of us set off with Sergio. We were both briefed well. Equipment gave us confidence. The dive was part of their taster dive experience. It was fantastic and we saw marine life in ther natural environment. Seeing a Seahorse, Cuttlefish and Moray Eel plus many more species up close was an amazing experience. I never thought I’d be able to dive past 50, but it was made possible by the kind, professional, and experienced team at this company. I highly recommend you try the taster session. We dived to 11.3 metres, which was I class as an achievement. Thank you team!

Fantastic safe & friendly dive
Back for another year, and my sister and I did two fantastic dives with Sergio. We did Las Eras & Abedes. Visibility was amazing and saw lots. Barbarian divers is very friendly and safe, definitely recommend them. Another fabulous experience this year! Thanks Sergio.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for coming back to us again, and for such a lovely review! We're so glad the visibility was on your side for the dives at Las Eras and Abades, and that you and your sister had such a fantastic time with Sergio. Looking forward to seeing you both again next year for more diving in Los Cristianos, Tenerife!

Amazing!
An amazing experience that turned my vacation from a monotonous one into a vibrant and adventurous journey! My instructor, Kathleen Knecht, is an exceptional and caring instructor who gave me all the support and energy I needed to learn everything about the Open Water Diver course. She adapted the locations and beaches to suit different diving conditions. I don't regret a single second choosing this dive center and I am seriously thinking about coming back to continue with the next level of specialization. Thank you, Kathleen!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this lovely review! We're thrilled Kathleen turned your vacation into such a vibrant, adventurous experience while you completed your Open Water Diver course with us. She'll be so happy to read this. We'd love to have you back at Barbarian Diving in Tenerife for the next level of your diving specialization whenever you're ready!

If I could vote 10 stars I would
If I could’ve 10 stars I would. I personally was an absolute pain in the backside with kath but yet she made us feel like it was fine all along. I had to cancel my initial slot due to myself being a little bit ill, I then had to rearrange the second slot Kath gave us as it clashed with another excursion, but Kath just made it seem so fine and perfect. We got there and I was nervous and she and he colleague reassured me and showed me all the ways to sort myself out when under the water in all the different circumstances that could happen. Not to add as well I ruptured my ACL a week before I came and once again Kath was so much help with making sure I was comfortable with the gear. Again in the water Kath and her colleague was super helpful and was constantly making sure we were okay and being so reassuring. When I come back without a doubt I’ll come back and cannot rate these guys anymore higher. Like I said at the start if I could’ve rate these guys 10 stars I for sure would.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this wonderful review! Kath and the team were so glad to help you feel comfortable, especially given the ACL injury and the rescheduling, nothing was ever a bother, and that's exactly how diving should feel when you're a little nervous going in. It means a lot that you'd rate the experience so highly. We'd love to welcome you back to Barbarian Diving for more scuba diving in Los Cristianos, Tenerife whenever you're next here!

Why this scores 75
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Tenerife: Los Cristianos Small-Group Scuba Diving Experience: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tenerife.
How much does Tenerife: Los Cristianos Small-Group Scuba Diving Experience cost?
+
Prices start at $92 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tenerife usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Tenerife: Los Cristianos Small-Group Scuba Diving Experience take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Tenerife is not rushed.
Is Tenerife: Los Cristianos Small-Group Scuba Diving Experience worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 64 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tenerife, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Tenerife: Los Cristianos Small-Group Scuba Diving Experience?
+
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 Tenerife: Los Cristianos Small-Group Scuba Diving Experience suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tenerife: Los Cristianos Small-Group Scuba Diving Experience?
+
Around 22 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 Tenerife 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 Tenerife and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tenerife: Los Cristianos Small-Group Scuba Diving Experience 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 Tenerife 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 Tenerife?
+
On Outty we rank every Tenerife experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Whale watching & listening Eco-Catamaran Tour with Snacks &Drinks, 3-hour Whale and Dolphin Watching and Listening Tour, Teide National Park Sunset & Stargazing Coach Tour – Hotel Pickup. 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 Tenerife?
+
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 Tenerife?
+
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.
What is included in Tenerife: Los Cristianos Small-Group Scuba Diving Experience?
+
Included: Use of SCUBA equipment; All Fees and Taxes; and Insurance. Not included: Photos. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Tenerife: Los Cristianos Small-Group Scuba Diving Experience?
+
We will waiting for you at the Cristianos pier parking in front of playa de las vistas Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Tenerife: Los Cristianos Small-Group Scuba Diving Experience offered in?
+
It is offered in German, Portuguese, English, Italian and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
