Atalaia Diving Center

We had an amazing time diving here. There are many lovely spots that are directly accessible from the diving center, but we also took a couple of boat trips to the garajau nature reserve and a shipwreck. We had the opportunity to do a night dive and a cave dive as well. Marco and Sasha made us feel incredibly welcome and are lovely guides with a lot of knowledge about the area and the marine life, on top of that they took some amazing pictures we could take home as memories. It was a great experience, I can't wait to visit again. 👌

Cool dive center, Sascha is cool to dive with. Nice to dive in the house reef. Cheers!

Marco, the owner and also the instructor that dove with me, was great! Made me feel safe at all times and was super thoughtful along the whole tour. Strongly recommend the diving school and Marco as your diving instructor. Saw many fishes and the water was super transparent.

Best dive center in Madeira, also the cheapest, after talking with friends that trues other companies and comparing prices and quality services we would recommend Atalaia in Madeira. It doesn’t matter if you haven’t done one dive ever or if you are PADI instructor there they have equipment, guides they speak Fluente English Portuguese and German. Discovery’s starting at 45€. Really nice experience also really nice spots for diving in Madeira

We just came back from two days of diving with Atalaia dive and we had such a great time! Sascha and the other crew members are very professional and go out of their way to give you the best dives. We had some issues with our flight due to covid, and Sascha was so kind as to e-mail us a variety of options, depending on different scenario's, which was very helpful. The diving center is located on a beautiful hill, right next to the marine reserve Garajau. This is very convenient; you can just walk into the water and you're there. The crew also took us on a wreck dive (Corvetq Afonso), which was awesome!! Definitely recommend. Before each dive the crew briefed us very clearly and safety was monitored very well and adequately, and equipment was good. I even got a second layer wetsuit because I always get cold ;-). After each last dive nice cold beer was available. In sum, don't hesitate, go here! :D
