The Experience

So you're thinking about trying scuba but you've never actually done it — yeah, that's exactly what this is for. Costa Teguise in Lanzarote has a PADI 5-star centre that runs a one-hour diving baptism, which means you show up, get ten minutes of training in shallow water, and then you're down there for 45 minutes with a guide who walks you through everything. The whole thing happens at 9am or 3pm depending on what fits your day, and the water conditions decide whether you go to one spot or another — the guide knows both and picks based on the weather that morning.

You don't need to be able to swim well, and you won't go deeper than 6 meters, so it's genuinely designed for someone who's never strapped on a tank before. The guide stays with you the whole time, explains what's happening as you go, and handles anything that feels off. You're in a small group, not a cattle-call situation, and the equipment — wetsuit, tank, weights, the lot — is included, so you're not renting pieces or figuring out what you need. Insurance is in there too, which takes one thing off your mind.

The water around Costa Teguise is clear enough that you'll actually see what you came for, and the 45 minutes underwater goes faster than you'd think. Kids as young as ten can do this, which tells you something about how accessible it is. If you're staying in that part of Lanzarote and you've been curious about diving but never committed to a full certification course, this baptism is the low-stakes way to find out if you like it before you spend the time and money on the real thing.
