    Fantastic experience. :-)

    We dived on Monday with them, my daughters (13 and 16) my husband and myself. They were all so lovely and smiley from reception to instructors making sure we had a nice time and taking lovely pictures of us. Because of weather condition we could not take the boat but they drove us to a distant beach wherr we saw plenty of colourful wild life, including and hilarious crab (arrow crab). :-D Also we had 3 instructors for the 4 of us. Thanks to the team. :-)

    Don't panic, just breath

    We went for my birthday and it was, without a doubt, the best birthday yet. Everything was explained really clearly and both instructors were awesome. I only caught Juan's name, sorry other dude! You were also awesome. I can't properly explain the experience, it was magical. We saw so many different fish, including a shoal that kinda shadowed us for a bit. Unfortunately no Turtles but I honestly didn't care. Just being down there was enough. I found it easier when I wasn't concentrating on breathing, which is a weird thing to say, you'll see what I mean. I can't recommend this enough and can't recommend doing it with Zero Gravity enough. An experience I'll never forget. X

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your review! We’re so happy to hear that your birthday was special and that you had a great time. It’s wonderful to know that the experience was memorable. We appreciate your recommendation of Zero Gravity and hope to dive with you again soon! 😊

    Really professional but great fun

    It was a while since I had dived so the owner Estafan allocated Francisco to me for a 10 metre dive. Also on the boat were 3 people who had never dived before and Tommy was looking after them. Estafan even allowed my wife to come along on the boat just to keep an eye on me. So there were 3 divers from Scuba Point supervising 4 clients. How about that for a ratio !!! Francisco spent half an hour giving me a refresher course before we left Puerto Colon and never left my side underwater. Highlight from my week in Tenerife and the the 3 novice divers also appeared to have had a great time and are probably hooked on diving now thanks to Scuba Point. Equipment was top notch and the personnel and staff even better.....and all at a reasonable price

    Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re so glad Francisco helped you feel confident in the water—it’s always great to see divers getting back into it. Having your wife join on the boat was absolutely our pleasure; we want everyone to feel included and comfortable. 😊 It means a lot to hear that this was the highlight of your week in Tenerife. We’re also thrilled you appreciated the attention from our team and the quality of the equipment—it’s all part of making sure you have the best experience possible. We’d love to see you again on your next visit for more amazing dives! 🌊🐠 Best regards, Scubapoint Tenerife

    First time scuba diving with my husband and we loved every minute of it thank you. Gay couple and both felt very comfortable with the guides.

We’re thrilled to hear that you and your husband loved your first scuba diving adventure with us. 💙 It’s especially wonderful to know you both felt comfortable and supported by our guides—that means the world to us. We hope this is just the start of many underwater adventures for you two! Looking forward to welcoming you back anytime. 🌊🐠 Best wishes, Scubapoint Team

    Try Scuba Diving in a turtle area (boat): questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tenerife.

    How much does Try Scuba Diving in a turtle area (boat) cost?

    +

    Prices start at $80 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 Try Scuba Diving in a turtle area (boat) take?

    +

    Plan for about 2.5 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 Try Scuba Diving in a turtle area (boat) worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 96 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 Try Scuba Diving in a turtle area (boat)?

    +

    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 Try Scuba Diving in a turtle area (boat) suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Try Scuba Diving in a turtle area (boat)?

    +

    Around 34 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 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Try Scuba Diving in a turtle area (boat) 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 Try Scuba Diving in a turtle area (boat)?

    +

    Included: Equipment; Professional guide; All taxes, fees and handling charges; and Insurance. Not included: Parking fee; Food and drinks; and Souvenir photos (available to purchase). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Try Scuba Diving in a turtle area (boat)?

    +

    We are located in Puerto Colón harbour, in front of pontoon 3, behind Cafe Victoria, taking the corridor of Black Pearl Cafe. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Try Scuba Diving in a turtle area (boat) offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Try Scuba Diving in a turtle area (boat)?

    +

    Is Try Scuba Diving in a turtle area (boat) wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Try Scuba Diving in a turtle area (boat) if the weather is bad?

    +
