About this experience

Diving & Snorkeling in Vallehermoso is a guided underwater activity on the northwest coast of La Gomera, Canary Islands. The dive sites feature volcanic rock formations, black sand bottoms, and clear Atlantic waters with visibility often exceeding 20 metres. Marine life includes damselfish, trumpetfish, and occasional stingrays, with shallow areas suitable for snorkelers.

What to expect

Guided sessions last 2.5 to 3 hours, including a 40-50 minute dive or 60-minute snorkel from the shore at Playa de Vallehermoso.
All necessary equipment (mask, fins, wetsuit, BCD, regulator, and tank) is provided and fitted by certified instructors.
Divers explore the 'El Cabrito' reef, a volcanic arch and tunnel at 8-12 metres depth, while snorkelers stay over seagrass beds at 2-4 metres.
Sessions are limited to 6 participants per guide, with a briefing on local currents and hand signals before entry.
Suitable for beginners (no prior certification needed for snorkel; introductory dive for certified divers only) and families with children aged 8 and above.
