The guides were super friendly and explained everything to me during the briefing.
Vielen Dank für deine nette Bewertung! Es freut uns sehr, dass du dich bei unseren Guides gut aufgehoben gefühlt hast und die Einweisung so verständlich für dich war. Dein Lob geben wir gerne an das ganze Team weiter. Wir würden uns freuen, bald wieder mit dir auf Teneriffa abzutauchen! Viele Grüße vom gesamten Ocean Trek Team, Gerhard
Pier-Paolo our guide was great. Reassuring and clear in the explanation of the safety rules, he put us at ease. We had the pleasure of encountering trumpetfish, parrotfish, arrow crabs, and even an octopus. I highly recommend this experience. Clément
Bonjour Clément, merci beaucoup pour ton super avis ! Nous sommes ravis que tu te sois senti en confiance avec Pier-Paolo et que vous ayez pu découvrir autant de choses sous l'eau, et même une pieuvre ! Nous transmettons volontiers tes compliments à Pier-Paolo, il en sera très content. Au plaisir de te revoir bientôt chez nous à Tenerife ! Salutations de toute l'équipe Ocean Trek, Gerhard
A bucket list item for me, one of the best experiences ever. Top guidance by two cool professionals. Sorry I didn't start earlier. Recommendation!
Hallo Patrick, Hartelijk dank voor je geweldige review! Wat leuk om te horen dat je eerste duik zo goed is bevallen en dat je je in goede handen voelde bij ons. We geven je complimenten graag door aan de twee instructeurs die je hebben begeleid! We hopen je snel weer onder water bij ons te mogen verwelkomen. Met vriendelijke groet, Ocean Trek Teneriffa
Great experience. Carlos and the team great throughout. One on one in the water which was also brilliant
Hi John, thank you so much for the great review! We're really glad you had such a good experience, and that Carlos and the team took such good care of you throughout - one-on-one in the water is definitely one of the things we love offering. We hope to see you again soon for more dives! Regards from the whole Ocean Trek team, Gerhard
Our pickup worked on time. Unfortunately, everything else was quite chaotic. Although more than enough dive instructors accompanied us, one had the feeling they were doing it for the first time. The selected spot was also only conditionally suitable for absolute beginners. However, when we were underwater, everything was beautiful.
Hallo Tanjo, vielen Dank für deine Bewertung. Wir freuen uns, dass euch das Tauchen und die Unterwasserwelt gefallen hat. Leider können wir aus deiner Nachricht nicht erkennen was genau an diesem Tag nicht so gut geklappt hatte. Manchmal kann es aber natürlich auch bei uns vorkommen, dass nicht alles immer so perfekt läuft wie wir es uns wünschen. Dafür entschuldigen wir uns. Wir hoffen wir konnten euch trotzdem von der Unterwasserwelt begeistern, und wünschen euch für die Zukunft noch viele weitere tolle Taucherlebnisse. Viele Grüße vom gesamten Team, Gerhard
This was one of the coolest experience for us. It was our first try dive and I got to say a huge thank you to our instructors Tommy and master diver Adri! They made us feel calm and did a lot of the leg work for us. They also gave great advice and tips for our future diving experiences. It was so peaceful and beautiful and I am grateful I was able to have such great company.
We went diving with Matthias a few days ago. It was our first time scuba diving, and Matthias made us feel very comfortable and confident. It was really incredible to see the whole world that exists underwater, that you can’t imagine when you’re just swimming or sitting on the beach. I would highly recommend scuba diving, with this company in particular, to anyone! We did go snorkeling with a different company several days later, where they had people diving off a boat, and I think the approach we took of entering the water from the beach seemed like a much easier way to acclimate.
Me and my partner had fun for the most part, the Ukrainian guy there was 10/10 no complaints the other gentleman was a bit impatient I can not recall his name, the masks were having issues suctioning to my face and kept letting sea water in the mask up to the eyeballs which caused me to have to go back up to the surface after 20 mins of this the other guy we were with (not the Ukrainian guy) the guy got frustrated and took my partner away rather than staying in the group as was originally planned but she enjoyed it and that's what I care about more than anything I just snorkelled for the remainder of our session which was okay, you do have to walk from a car park to the sea with your equipment on which my partner couldn't do which wasn't an issue as the Ukrainian guy carried it however I walked it over as I was capable but by the time you get to the water you are trying to catch your breath, granted I am a bigger guy however I do weight train however by time I got to the water I was fatigued then getting in the sea water its obviously quite cold which made breathing increase more as well so it was difficult to regulate breath once in the water as I was still trying to recover from the short walk over, whether that was me being too chunky for my own good or an issue with the experience up for debate but also the fact my partner couldn't carry the BCD and oxygen over to the water and she genuinely is fit as a fiddle and struggled. we were lucky enough for it to be just us which made the experience better but I would potentially advise taking Vaseline if you have a short beard to assist with suction. overall i would give a 6.5 out of ten.
Thank you for your review! We are happy that you enjoyed it! We’re sorry if you found the walk along the beach too tiring. Unfortunately, there’s no other way to reach this dive site. It’s actually the best one on the island, especially for beginners, as it’s very sheltered and there are lots of fish and a fantastic volcanic underwater landscape to see. For this reason, it is even visited by diving schools located quite a long way away. If anyone has trouble carrying their equipment, our instructors are always happy to help. You could simply have let us know. We wish you many more fantastic diving experiences in the future. Best regards from the whole Ocean Trek team.
Great staff and great experience overall. The reason it only gets 4 out of 5 stars is because there is too much information. Understandable why, as it could be a dangerous activity, but it gives you a feeling of danger and overwhelm before you even go inside the ocean. I had done it once before and there was less information, which had made it a much more fun and enjoyable experience. P.S. if you are a beginner diver, they will not let you bring your own action camera. Photos will cost you €30 extra
Hi Roam, thank you for your kind visit. We can understand your criticism of the briefing, which was perhaps too extensive for you. As you have dived before, it may not have been necessary for you. However, many of our diving students also find it very good that we explain everything in detail. The fact that beginners are not allowed to bring their own camera is a firm rule of all diving organisations. The students should concentrate on the diving equipment, the diving instructor and the new environment.
Interesting variety of fish from cuttlefish to trumpet fish. Brian was a good calm and informative instructor for first time divers. Was difficult to get correct size equipment for all 5 of us.
Hi, Thank you so much for your lovely visit! We're so glad you enjoyed your time. Please understand that sometimes it takes a little longer to find the right equipment. Everyone has different sizes. We always try our best to give our guests the correct size the first time. However, sometimes you have to try on several wetsuits to find the perfect fit. We hope we were able to inspire you with the underwater world. We look forward to seeing you again soon. Best regards from Brian and the entire team
