Why dive with Dawn Dives in Playa Blanca
If you are comparing centres, you are probably not only looking for a diving activity.
You are looking for a place where things are explained clearly, nobody is rushing you and you feel properly looked after.
That is exactly what we try to do here.
Calm
We want you to come out of the water feeling calm, comfortable and with good feelings.
Clarity
We explain what matters in a simple way, without overcomplicating things.
At your pace
We adapt the experience to you, not the other way round.

Because in the end, it is about enjoying yourself underwater, not just getting through it.
Closeness
Here, you dive with a team that is genuinely paying attention to you.
Diving is about enjoying being underwater. We just want to help you do that in the best way possible and leave you wanting to come back.
Why Lanzarote is such a good place to dive
Lanzarote is one of those islands that is simply great for diving.
You can dive at any time of year
Water temperature usually stays between 18 and 24 ºC
Very good visibility, usually around 20–25 m
Real variety of dives, with more than 50 dive sites
Shore dives or boat dives depending on the area and the type of dive
Underwater, you get volcanic scenery, very different areas and plenty of dives that change a lot depending on where you go.
Some places are calmer, some are more scenic, some are done from shore, others by boat, and there are also well-known spots like the Museo Atlántico.
That is why, whether you are coming for your first dives or you already have experience, it is easy to find options that fit you well.
And although our centre is in Playa Blanca, we also dive in other parts of the island.
Diving in Playa Blanca is a great base for exploring Lanzarote, and depending on your level, the sea conditions and the kind of dive you feel like doing, we help you choose the area that makes the most sense for that day.
