You’ll get a lot of water time, fast. This six-site scuba package in Puerto de Mogán is built for people who want to make the most of Gran Canaria without wasting days waiting for space on popular sites. I like that you lock in 12 air tanks plus weights and belt, and that every session is led by a PADI guide. One thing to think about: you’ll need solid paperwork (certification proof) and you may have extra fees if you haven’t been in the water for months.

The best part is how this setup solves a real Gran Canaria problem: boats and guide capacity get booked early in the southwest. With this package, you’re not playing guess-the-calendar. Also, the operator works from inside the Cordial Mogan Hotel area, so morning starts and pickups feel straightforward instead of chaotic.

If you want zero hassle, this is the kind of planning that pays off. It’s also a good match if you like an organized day that still feels fun, not rushed.

Key Highlights That Matter On This Six-Site Plan

• Hotel pickup and drop-off keeps your morning and return stress low.
• 12-liter tanks included for 12 sessions of air (and 15-liter on demand), so you’re not constantly checking what’s available.
• PADI-led sessions with multilingual guidance, which is great for confidence and safety flow.
• Choose your days (except Friday), letting you build around your other island plans.
• Small operation feel: the experience lists a maximum of 1 traveler per booking.
• Built-in snacks and drinks, plus a tip to bring a lunch box to cover the full day rhythm.

Why Puerto de Mogán and a Six-Site Package Works

Gran Canaria’s southwest around Puerto de Mogán is a strong base for Atlantic scuba sessions, mostly because the weather tends to stay friendly and the days are easier to plan. This package targets an extremely popular area within the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve zone—one of those places where boats can fill up when everyone else has the same bright idea.

I like that the package format is practical: you buy ahead, pick your dates (with the listed day limits), and then show up to a schedule already slotted for you. Instead of worrying whether there’s room for your second and third water day, you plan your vacation with a clear number of sessions.

The value isn’t only the sites. It’s the logistics bundle—pickup, guides, tanks, and support included—so you don’t end up piecing together parts at different times, prices, or skill levels.

Meeting at the School in the Cordial Mogan Hotel Area (8:30 AM Start)

This is not a vague “meet at the dock sometime” setup. Your start point is the Delphinus school located inside the Cordial Mogan Hotel area in Puerto de Mogán, on Av. Los Marrero, 2.

The start time is 8:30 AM, and the activity ends back at the meeting point. If you’re the type who likes to know where you’ll be at exactly what time, this kind of clarity helps a lot—especially on a two-day schedule.

Another comfort factor: the tour lists hotel pickup and drop-off included. That matters here because Puerto de Mogán is scenic, but getting across the island for boat schedules can be tiring if you’re managing taxis on tight timelines.

How the Two Days Usually Run: Pick Your Days, Then Get Two Sites a Day

You’ll be able to choose your days, with the important restriction that you can’t select Friday for these plans. The info also notes that special day trips depart on Sundays.

The general pattern is that most boats visit two sites per day. So you’re looking at six sessions spread across about two days, with breaks and travel between them.

For your planning, that means you can treat the trip like a focused block in your itinerary rather than a “maybe I’ll find a slot” situation. If you have just a few vacation days, this kind of structure helps you get your underwater time without sacrificing too much daylight.

What’s Included: Tanks, Weights and a PADI Guide

This package gives you a lot of core diving support in the base price. You get:

• Multilingual PADI professional dive guide
• 12-liter tanks with air (and 15-liter available on demand)
• Weights and belt
• Transfers from and to your hotel
• A small snack and drink

In plain terms: you’re paying for the working parts that are hardest to organize solo. Tanks and weights are not the fun part of planning; they’re the part that can turn a good vacation into admin.

Also, the PADI guide piece isn’t just a badge. It usually means the day runs with real instruction, briefings, and a safety rhythm that helps you enjoy the water more. If you’re new or returning after time away, having a structured guide style makes a difference in how quickly you feel comfortable.

The review feedback lines up with that. People praise the instructors by name, including mentors such as Jore and Elisa, along with staff like Alvaro, Elice, and Jacob for support on boat sessions, and Bartek for care and guidance.

What’s Not Included: Equipment, Insurance, and the Common Add-Ons

Even with the package, you’ll want to budget for a few add-ons depending on your needs.

Equipment rental

Equipment rental (complete set) costs 10 Euro per day. The package includes weights and belt, so you’re mostly renting the rest of the kit.

If you’re traveling light, factor this into your packing strategy. If you already have your own gear, check your certification fit and comfort level first—this package expects you to be a prepared diver.

Insurance

Dive insurance is obligatory. The info says you can purchase it at the dive club for 5 Euro/day. If you already have coverage that meets the requirement, you may not need to buy it there.

Mandatory refresher after a break

If you haven’t been diving within the last 6 months, a refresher session is mandatory before your dives. That separate cost is 65 Euro.

This rule matters for your timing. If your last water time was a while ago, don’t assume you can jump straight into the full six-site plan without extra lead-in.

Optional extras

• Night session with torch: 15 Euro (torch is 5 Euro if needed separately)
• Trip supplement for El Cabron or Sardina: 30 Euro
• Trip supplement for Las Palmas: 55 Euro

These optional items are great if you want extra variety, but they’re not required for the core package. If your budget is tight, you can focus on the six included sessions and still get a full vacation chunk.

Six Water Sites: What Each Stop Likely Feels Like

The package lists these sites among your options: Mogán Wreck, Pasito Blanco, Arguineguín reef, Bahía Lila, Mogán caves, Balito, plus others depending on your day plan.

Because the only confirmed details here are the names and type (wreck, reef, caves), I’ll keep the expectations grounded and practical:

• Mogán Wreck: a man-made structure type, usually a favorite when you want a clear focal point instead of only natural terrain.
• Pasito Blanco: a named site that’s typically chosen for day schedules; you’ll likely spend time on the water spot itself plus guided briefing.
• Arguineguín reef: a reef setting, often good for people who want variety in underwater surfaces.
• Bahía Lila: another named Atlantic site in the southwest circuit; your guide will handle what you can see and how to approach it.
• Mogán caves: a cave environment type, where buoyancy and calm control matter even more than usual.
• Balito: another named stop in the area’s program rotation.

Key tip: even when sites sound similar on paper, each one will feel different because your route, entry/exit points, and underwater approach vary. Ask your PADI guide during the briefing what they’re focusing on that day.

Certification Rules and the Health Questionnaire Check

To participate in certified sessions, you’ll need to show evidence of dive certification. This is normal, but it’s important because it affects whether you can be dropped into the correct level of guidance.

You’ll also be required to complete a health questionnaire. Certain conditions (as listed: asthma and heart conditions are examples) may prevent diving, so talk to your doctor if you’re unsure.

Two more practical notes:

• Diving within 24 hours of flying is not recommended.
• Children must be accompanied by an adult.

These rules aren’t there to spoil your vacation. They’re there so the crew can keep the schedule safe and consistent for everyone.

Comfort Tips That Make the Schedule Easier

You’ll want your day to run smooth, because this is a two-day, multiple-site block.

• The guidance advises bringing a lunch box. Even with snacks and drinks included, a packed day can make real food timing important.
• You should have moderate physical fitness. This doesn’t mean you need to be an athlete, but it does mean expect boat transfers, gear prep, and some movement.
• The package is weather-dependent. If conditions are poor, you’ll be offered another date or a full refund (covered by the operator’s weather policy).

I also suggest you plan your hotel stay with the pickup in mind. The start is early, and you don’t want to be negotiating transport right when the schedule is running.

Is This Package Actually Good Value at $376?

At $376 for six water sites over about two days, the value comes from what’s included rather than what’s not.

You’re getting:

• PADI guide support across all sessions
• 12 tanks included (with 15-liter available on demand)
• weights and belt
• hotel pickup and drop-off
• snacks and drinks

If you tried to assemble this yourself, you’d be paying for guides, coordinating tanks, and lining up transport—often with less certainty about whether you’d get the same day pairings.

The extras (equipment rental, insurance, possible refresher session, and optional night session or supplements) can add cost, but those are common add-ons for the format. Your best value comes when you already have your own certification current enough that you likely won’t need a refresher session, and when you can use the package without adding extra trips.

One more plus: this plan is rated 4.8 with praise focused on professional instructors and a caring tone. Names that show up in the positive feedback—like Adrian for scheduling help, plus instructors Jore, Elisa, Alvaro, Elice, Jacob, and Bartek—point to a team that pays attention to how the day actually feels for you.

Should You Book It: Best Fit and Who Might Skip It

Book this six-site scuba package if:

• You want a lot of water time in a short Gran Canaria stay
• You value structured guidance (especially if you like clear briefings and a safety rhythm)
• You’re staying in or near Puerto de Mogán and want pickup + drop-off without taxi math
• You want to avoid the stress of popular boat schedules filling up

Consider skipping or double-checking if:

• You’re unsure about your medical clearance and want extra time with your doctor first
• Your last water time was more than 6 months ago, since a refresher session adds cost and time
• You’re hoping for a totally flexible schedule every day—Friday is excluded, and Sunday has special day trips

If you’re the type who likes your vacation organized but still fun, this is a strong match.
