Nautico Dive Academy

The Center was founded in 1972 under the name Diving Center Nautico on the Playa de Meloneras and is therefore the oldest diving school in Gran Canaria. For decades, the diving school was located in a hotel in San Agustín. Since April 2019, the installations of Nautico can now be found on the former site of the diving school Dive Academie Gran Canaria. After the merger, the new name "Nautico Dive Academy" was born. Our second local you can find in the middle of Playa del Inglés. In addition to our friendly office and simultaneous training room you will find our OWN POOL directly in front of the base. The spacious outdoor area offers enough space for all other installations such as drying room, WC and our washing area for cleaning and drying your equipment.
