Abades is a local village on the east coast of the island, away from the tourist area. This makes it a quiet area, with a quiet, sandy, natural beach. Since fishing is forbidden here and there isn´t much movement at the surface, like swimmers and boat traffic, the ocean here is full of life, which you find close to shore.
Our snorkel spots are easily accessible from this beach, which we find a minute's walk away from our dive center.
If you'd like to eat or drink anything after snorkeling, you´ll find small restaurants with outside terraces and a supermarket directly on the cozy square in front of our center.
Non-snorkers will enjoy the beach.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
If you would like to be picked up on your day of diving, please let us know where you would like to be picked up from, and we´ll inform you what time we´ll be there. We offer a transportation service on the south, west, and east coasts of the island. Would you like family or friends to come to Abades Beach without joining the activity? Please let us know; we`ll reserve them a seat in our minivan for an additional cost.
What to expect
Upon arrival at the dive center, you will be provided with your new outfit, which consists of a wetsuit, mask, snorkel, and fins. Your instructor will explain to you how to use the equipment and how we should behave in the water.
You will then be transported to another world, accessible directly from the beach, and experience how it feels to breathe underwater through a snorkel while floating at the surface. Hold your breath and try to swim down a few meters underwater; it's good fun!
No previous experience is needed for this snorkel adventure to explore our beautiful, vulcanic house reef. You might see sleeping octopus and be followed by schools of inquisitive fish of a huge variety of shapes, colors, and sizes, like trumpetfish, parrotfish, rays, and starfish. Who knows? You might see a seahorse or come face-to-face with a turtle.
After an hour of snorkeling with a guide, you are allowed to use the snorkeling equipment and discover more of our bay by yourself.
