About 200 km from the north-western coasts of Africa, nestled in the blue of the Atlantic Ocean, lie the southernmost edges of Europe, seven beautiful volcanic pearls rich in colours and nature: the archipelago of Canary Islands.
Gran Canaria, the third largest island and the second most populous, is a well-known tourist destination due to its excellent climate, which favors holiday stays throughout the year.
Right in the south of Gran Canaria , in the Arguineguin area, the Scuba Sur diving center has been operating since November 2011. This five-star PADI diving center offers high-quality services in a privileged, superior location: the Anfi del Mar resort, a time-share facility that hosts a predominantly Scandinavian, German, English, and Italian clientele. Anfi del Mar is well-known for its pristine white beach, well-protected from the wind, the quality of its services, and its impeccable internal management and organization.
Born on the basis of a diving centers network project started in the Red Sea, and in collaboration with Delphinus Diving School, the most important and famous diving school in Poland, also present in Gran Canaria for six years, Scuba Sur It is positioned as a centre of excellence for all divers wishing to discover the unexpected wonders of the Canary Islands' ocean floors.
