CANICO

DIVING CENTER

Our diving center is located at the southern coast of Madeira, directly on the promenade of Canico de Baixo.​ 

 

We are a private and family-owned diving center and are not attached to any hotel and therefore offer you a personal service.

 

The beautiful beach and restaurant is publicly accessible at no charge and thus ideal for both divers and non-divers alike, offering a perfect place to relax in-between and after dives.

Our house reef is the biggest on Madeira and bosts 6 different dive spots all offering a diverse range of tunnels, canyons and walls all home to a huge range of tropical fish. If you posses the appropriate experience, we invite you to discover the house reef on your own.

 

We have two guided dives per day where we show you the most beautiful dive spots on the island both by shore and boat where you can discover friendly Groupers, Monk Seals and even Manta Rays as well as Sea Horse, Frog Fish and Octopus. 

 

Madeira Diving Center is open all year round as the diving conditions are perfect with great visibility and water temperature throughout the year.
