Buceo Valencia

Buceo Valencia is an official PADI 5 Star IDC dive centre on the coast at La Pobla de Farnals, just north of Valencia, Spain. Running as a school since 1997, its five PADI Instructors have trained more than 8,000 students — the foundation of a genuine clan of divers that newcomers and returning divers alike are welcome to join.

Courses and diving

The teaching line-up covers every stage of the journey, from the PADI Open Water Diver Course and Advanced Open Water Diver through to Rescue Diver, plus focused programmes such as Enriched Air Diver, Peak Performance Buoyancy, ReActivate Scuba Refresher and Emergency First Response CPR and AED. Nitrox, equipment sales and a full range of scuba rental gear are all on hand.

Local dives explore sites including BARRERA PRECOLARINA, SS COILA and La draga, with the chance to encounter sharks, whales, turtles and ocean fish. With an onsite classroom, retail shop, dive boat and parking — and staff working in English, Spanish and French — it suits first-timers and experienced divers looking to build skills.
