Operated by Scuba Sur · Arguineguín, Canarias
Anfi Beach, located on the southern shores of Gran Canaria near the lively town of Arguineguín, offers a distinctive setting for divers seeking both adventure and safety. Scuba Sur’s All-In Shore Dive invites licensed divers to immerse themselves in a protected marine zone free from boat traffic, a rarity in busy coastal areas. This designated swimming area stretches over two kilometers, providing a secure playground for underwater discovery without the usual concerns about maritime traffic.
The dive itself lasts around 35 minutes, nestled within a two-hour excursion that includes top-quality equipment like cylinders, BCDs, wetsuits, fins, masks, dive computers, and surface marking buoys. Every detail—right down to dive insurance—is covered to give divers peace of mind. The underwater world here is vibrant, with clear waters revealing basalt formations and small caves sculpted by ocean currents, home to Mediterranean and Atlantic fish species that thrive in this subtropical enclave.
Participation is limited to certified divers holding at least a basic Scuba Diver license allowing dives up to 12 meters, and Scuba Sur’s commitment to safety shines through their requirement for medical screening and a maximum group size of six. For those wanting to capture their experience, an underwater photography guide can be arranged.
Arguineguín’s coastal charm, combined with Scuba Sur’s carefully managed dive site, makes this a standout spot on Gran Canaria for both newcomers to the dive community and seasoned divers aiming to enjoy a relaxed but rewarding shore dive. This blend of ease, safety, and natural beauty solidifies Scuba Sur’s place in the local outdoor adventure scene.
