Mangamar Dive Center

Perched on the Spanish waterfront between La Manga and Cabo Palos, Mangamar Dive Center is a PADI 5 Star CDC led by an in-house Platinum Course Director. With eight PADI instructors and a genuinely international team, courses run in Spanish, English, Dutch, Italian and French, backed by PADI standards that divers consistently appreciate.

Courses and diving for everyone

The centre offers 26 courses and activities, from PADI Discover Scuba Diving and Scuba Diver to Peak Performance Buoyancy, Search and Recovery, and Rescue Diver. TecRec, Freediving, Snorkelling and Adaptive Diving round out a programme that welcomes newcomers, families and technical divers alike, with Nitrox, Trimix and mixed gas fills on hand.

Right outside sits a house reef, while nearby dive sites include Balky Point, Bajo de Fuera, Bajo de Dentro, La Morra and Naranjito. Marine life spans sharks, whales, turtles, eels, corals and anemones. An onsite classroom, retail shop, dive boat, adaptive services and free Wi-Fi complete the picture.
