Muy buena experiencia, totalmente recomendable! Personal muy cercano, sobre todo Luis, detallando y explicación todo a la perfección y transmitiendo mucha calma y tranquilidad. Además te facilitan las fotos al instante, ¡pero se hace corto el tiempo de inmersión! Translate this opinion into English.

A fantastic experience, highly recommended! The staff was incredibly friendly, especially Luis, who explained everything perfectly and conveyed a great sense of calm and tranquility. They even provided photos instantly, but the dive time felt too short! Opinion translated. Show original.

La actividad en sí fue muy buena. Los monitores fueron super amables y muy profesionales. Muy atentos a todo. Sin embargo, la actividad civitatis la subcontrata a a otra empresa que la subcontrata a otra. Mala organización y falta de comunicación entre las subcontratas. El proveedor me escribió el punto de encuentro por whatsapp y sin embargo nadie vino a recogernos. 1h esperando. Escribí al mismo WhatsApp y nadie contestó. Hasta que los monitores de Mero contactaro

The activity itself was very good. The instructors were super friendly and very professional, very attentive to everything. However, Civitatis subcontracts the activity to another company, which then subcontracts it to yet another. Poor organization and lack of communication between the subcontractors. The supplier sent me the meeting point via WhatsApp, but no one came to pick us up. I waited for an hour. I messaged the same WhatsApp number, and no one replied. Finally, the instructors from Mero contacted us.

A fantastic experience. The instructors, Luis and Rubén, were very attentive at all times, both during the initial training and during the dive. They instilled a lot of safety and confidence in us. Great professionals! And they even took a great photo and video of us in the water. We would definitely do it again. Opinion translated. Show original.

Perfecto!! Carlos y Luis muy atentos y muy majos. En todo momento estaban pendientes. Fue muy cómodo y vimos muchos peces y alguna raya. Nosotras aparcamos en el parking de arriba y avisamos al hombre del bar para que nos abriera el teleférico para bajar, ya que a las 9h aún no estaba abierto y no se podía bajar en coche. Espectacular! Translate this opinion into English.

Perfect!! Carlos and Luis were very attentive and very nice. They were attentive at all times. It was very comfortable and we saw many fish and some rays. We parked in the upper parking lot and notified the man at the bar to open the cable car for us to go down, since at 9 AM it was still not open and we couldn't go down by car. Spectacular!

Muy chula la experiencia y se ven muchos peces. La actividad se hace con Mero Diving y los instructores hablan español. Si la actividad es a las 9 y reservada con civitatis, puedes bajar en el teleférico gratis avisando en el bar. También nos hicieron fotos mientras hacíamos la inmersión. Translate this opinion into English.

The experience was really cool and we saw many fish. The activity is done with Mero Diving and the instructors speak Spanish. If the activity is at 9 and booked with civitatis, you can go down on the cable car for free by notifying at the bar. They also took photos of us while we were diving. Opinion translated.

10/10. La actividad genial, los monitores de 10, la explicación y seguridad que te dan también, el lugar fantástico. Repetiríamos. En la página de Civitatis el punto de encuentro es confuso, nosotros dejamos el coche en el parking del teleférico y preguntamos ahí, nos abrieron el teleférico para bajar a la playa (entra en el precio de la actividad), aunque el centro de buceo esta en la propia playa al fondo, se puede llegar andando por el camino, pero no en coche Translate this opinion into English.

10/10. The activity was great, the instructors were great, the explanation and safety they gave you were also fantastic, the place was fantastic. We would do it again. On the Civitatis website the meeting point is confusing, we left the car in the cable car parking lot and asked there, they opened the cable car for us to go down to the beach (included in the price of the activity), although the diving center is on the beach itself at the back, you can get there walking along the path, but not by car.

Un'esperienza indimenticabile. I ragazzi sono stati fantastici, attenti nella spiegazione pre immersione e simpatici. Ti mettevano a tuo agio immediatamente, eravamo in due e ognuno di noi aveva l'istruttore personale che ti accompagnavano nell'immersione, l'ansia e la paura con loro passava subito. Fanno Foto e video come ricordo che sono bellissimi. Disponibili e professionali al massimo. Consiglio di fare questa esperienza che ti rimane veramente nel cuore. Translate this opinion into English.

An unforgettable experience. The guys were fantastic, attentive in the pre-dive explanation and friendly. They made you feel at ease immediately, there were two of us and each of us had a personal instructor who accompanied us during the dive, the anxiety and fear disappeared right away with them. They take beautiful photos and videos as a keepsake. They are available and highly professional. I recommend doing this experience that truly stays in your heart. Opinion translated. Show original.

Gran experiencia!! Personal atento y muy profesional. Después de una charla introductoria, se sumergió un instructor con cada uno de nosotros pendiente de que estuviéramos cómodos y disfrutásemos de la actividad.. Cada uno llevaba una cámara y, al final, compartieron con nosotros fotos y vídeos. Descendimos a 10-12 metros y vimos diferentes peces (mero gigante, pez trompeta, etc). Para acceder a la playa, nos abrieron el teleférico. Translate this opinion into English.

Great experience!! Helpful and very professional staff. After an introductory talk, an instructor went underwater with each of us to make sure we were comfortable and enjoyed the activity. Each one carried a camera and, at the end, they shared photos and videos with us. We descended to 10-12 meters and saw different fish (giant grouper, trumpet fish, etc.). To access the beach, they opened the cable car for us. Opinion translated. Show original.

Fue una experiencia magnífica. Era nuestra primera vez buceando y nos sentimos muy tranquilos y acompañados. Experiencia 100% recomendable. El único pero sería que debido a tareas de mantenimiento el teleférico estaba cerrado y no pudimos usarlo para acceder a la playa. Luis, uno de los instructores, fue muy amable y vino a buscarnos. Translate this opinion into English.

It was a great experience. It was our first time diving and we felt very calm and accompanied. A 100% recommendable experience. The only downside would be that due to maintenance work the cable car was closed and we couldn't use it to access the beach. Luis, one of the instructors, was very kind and came to pick us up.

La experiencia fue increíble y lo volvería a repetir por supuesto. Hacer mención al monitor que se llama Luis y que hizo que me sintiera fenomenal, asique un 10 para él también. Tengo que quejarme y mucho de civitatis, ya que tenía reservado para el lunes día 16 a las 9h (haciendo la reserva con 10 días de antelación), y el sábado por la noche, me dicen que tiene que ser a las 14h o se anula la cita. Tuve que suspender las actividades que tenía ya para ese día por la tarde y me trastocó todo Translate this opinion into English.

The experience was incredible and I would do it again of course. I would like to mention the instructor, Luis, who made me feel great, so a 10 for him too. I have to complain a lot about Civitatis, since I had a reservation for Monday the 16th at 9am (making the reservation 10 days in advance), and on Saturday night, they told me that it had to be at 2pm or the appointment would be cancelled. I had to cancel the activities I had already planned for that afternoon and it upset everything. Opinion translated. Show original.

Experiencia increíble. Desde el primer momento, nuestros monitores Luis y Joao nos trataron estupendamente, fueron comunicativos y nos explicaron todo al detalle, dandonos seguridad absoluta. Ya bajo el agua la fue aún mejor: un auténtico paraíso submarino, prácticas totalmente respetuosas con la fauna marina y muy buen rollo. Estuvimos acompañados siempre por nuestros monitores para cualquier incidencia. Además nos hicieron muchos fotos y vídeos para el recuerdo. Inolvidable y muy recomendable.

La experiencia ha sido inolvidable, la atención de los monitores de 10 (en especial Luis) te explican todo perfectamente . Se notan que les gusta lo que hacen y lo transmiten , hacen que re sientas seguro con ellos dentro del agua. El lugar espectacular, vimos muchísimos peces y varios ejemplares de meros gigantes. Te hacen fotos y vídeos durante el trayecto que está encima incluido en el precio. Es un trato totalmente personalizado . Recomiendo no perderse esta actividad en Madeira .

The experience has been unforgettable, the attention of the 10 monitors (especially Luis) explains everything perfectly. You can tell that they like what they do and they transmit it, they make you feel safe with them in the water. The place was spectacular, we saw many fish and several specimens of giant groupers. They take photos and videos during the journey, which is included in the price. It is a totally personalized treatment. I recommend not missing this activity in Madeira. Opinion translated.

We simply had a great time. The explanations were clear, the instructors welcoming. Over 45 minutes we saw probably more than a dozen fish species, swimming in clouds nearby. Also interesting from a geological perspective, with huge rocks and cracks. Strongly recommend. Also, beautiful beach.
