How to find us

Directions from South (Playa del Ingles, Maspalomas, Meloneras, Arguineguin, Puerto Rico, Vecindario)

Take the motorway GC-1 North towards the airport. After passing the junction at km 28 for Vecindario and Pozo Izquierdo and the Atlantico Shopping centre (on the left), take the next exit (exit 3 at km 26) after 2km for Arinaga and Vecindario, next to the large office block for 'Meubles Atlantico Norte' on the right.  

Immediately take the first slip-road to your right (signed to Arinaga), and at the end of this slip road turn right onto 'Canal Derecha' alongside the rainwater barranco, and follow this road through the Freeport Zone for about one kilometer across one roundabout, then at the second roundabout follow the signs for Playa del Arinaga by turning left by the cement factory (Yesos Canarias) into calle Los Olivios.

After 300m you come to a small roundabout and then immediately another roundabout with a miniature lighthouse in the middle. Turn right at the second and follow the main road (GC-100) into Arinaga. Go straight across the roundabout with the white statue of a fisherman,next to the Shell Garage. Ahead you will see several zebra crossings on the main street, just before the fifth, about three quarters of the way down the main street, you come to the sign to the 'Cabrón Reserve' on your right and the 'Bar del Pino' on a corner on your left. Turn left here into calle Juan de Austria and take the second right onto Calle Luis Velasco. Davy Jones Diving is about 100 metres further along on the right.

Directions from North (Las Palmas, Airport)

In the airport follow signs for the south ("SUR"). After you leave, or pass the airport, continue for about 10 minutes southwards, and take the second junction, signposted Vechindario and Arinaga. These takes you onto a feeder lane, but ignore the first exit (Vechindario) and carry on for 200m to the exit for Arinaga. Follow the slip road down to the dual carriageway under the motorway onto 'Canal Derecha' and then follow the directions above.

Some hints:

  • We don't know why junction 3 follows junction 28
  • Most side streets in Arinaga are one-way in an alternating grid
  • If you come to the Airport you have missed the junction!
  • If you get lost in Arinaga ask for the Shell Garage (gasolinera) and start again down the main street
  • Our Diving School is a bit of a Tardis - our frontage is narrow but we have great depth and width!
  • Don't hesitate to call us on 699 721 584 if you want more help!
