Los Cristianos Beginner Scuba Diving at Stingray Bay

Choose this product when you want the simplest first-dive setup in Los Cristianos without adding kayaking or a boat transfer. You train at the dive centre, walk into the sea from shore and explore a volcanic reef under instructor supervision. Diving Atlantis currently describes this try-dive format as suitable for complete beginners from age 8 and says previous scuba experience or swimming ability is not required. The main commercial choice is the underwater-time option: 20 minutes for a shorter taster or 40 minutes for more time on the reef.

The strongest primary intent is “Los Cristianos beginner scuba diving,” with “Stingray Bay try dive” and “shore scuba Los Cristianos” as useful secondary modifiers. This keeps ID29 distinct from ID66, which is the Puerto Colon boat-based beginner dive from Costa Adeje, and from ID64, which combines kayaking, snorkeling and scuba in one booking. Stingrays are commonly associated with the site, but wildlife remains wild and no ray, turtle or other species should be promised.

Best for complete beginners who want to try scuba without certification, travellers staying in Los Cristianos or Playa de las Americas, and families with children old enough for the operator's current minimum age of 8. It also suits nervous first-timers because training happens before entry and the dive is supervised closely. The exact Tiqets guide languages are English and Spanish.

Choose ID66 if you specifically want a boat-based first dive from Puerto Colon in Costa Adeje. Choose ID64 if you want kayaking and snorkeling bundled with scuba. Skip this if you want a certification course, hotel transfer included or a wheelchair-accessible activity. Anyone with a relevant medical condition should complete the operator's medical questionnaire honestly and obtain a physician's fit-to-dive approval if required.

Meet at Diving Atlantis, 17 Paseo Maritimo, Los Cristianos, and show your smartphone ticket at the dive school. The exact Tiqets product includes about 30 minutes of training while the equipment is prepared.

Your instructor explains the basic equipment, breathing and safety procedures before you enter the water. All necessary scuba equipment is included.

The dive is shore-based at Stingray Bay / Ray Bay, where the seabed includes volcanic reef. Depending on the ticket selected, the underwater portion lasts about 20 or 40 minutes. Diving Atlantis currently describes its beginner shore try dives as descending gradually from shallow water to a maximum of roughly 6–8 metres.

Marine life can include rays, fish and other Atlantic species, but sightings vary naturally and are not guaranteed.

After the dive you return to the centre. Transfers are not included in the exact Tiqets ticket.

Current exact Tiqets price: from €75. Meeting point: 17 Paseo Maritimo, Los Cristianos. The exact ticket does not publish one overall duration, but it includes about 30 minutes of preparation plus either 20 or 40 minutes underwater.

Diving Atlantis currently sets a minimum age of 8 for beginner try dives and says no prior scuba experience or swimming ability is required. Confirm the selected ticket option if booking for a child.

Everyone must complete a diving medical questionnaire. Conditions such as asthma, cardiovascular problems, epilepsy or other flagged health issues may require a signed fit-to-dive certificate before participation.

The operator's current terms require a minimum 18–24 hour interval between the last dive and a flight departure. Plan flights and high-altitude excursions conservatively after diving.

The exact Tiqets product is not wheelchair accessible. Transfers are excluded. Current cancellation and rescheduling are available until 24 hours before the visit.

ID29 is the pure shore-entry beginner scuba product in Los Cristianos and should own the Stingray Bay / beginner-scuba intent. ID66 is the separate Puerto Colon boat-based first dive for Costa Adeje visitors. ID64 is a higher-priced multi-activity package combining kayaking, snorkeling and a 40-minute beginner dive. ID63 is underwater walking with an air helmet, not scuba. Keeping shore try-dive, boat try-dive, kayak-plus-scuba and underwater walking on separate intents avoids cannibalization.

Cancellation is available up to 24 hours before the activity.
