★★★★ It was nice that the people at the dive center spoke Dutch. They helped us well with the children. The diving equipment was in order and the guide was very good. We made 4 beautiful dives with our children. Everything was well organized. Knowledgeable people. It is a pity that we left much too late a number of times. It was difficult with the heat that people (participants) did not arrive on time.

★★★★★ Ik heb een hele fijne ervaring gehad! Ik weet geholpen door Joris als bij buddy die alles stap voor stap en heel rustig met mij door nam. Op deze manier heb ik als 15 jarig meisje mijn duikbrevet gehaald met een heel fijn gevoel (dat ik overal op voorbereid ben). Heel erg bedankt!

★★★★★ Last November, I did two dives a day for a week with Scuba Sur Gran Canaria. We had a fantastic week. Everything went smoothly thanks to the professional, very helpful, and friendly guides and their colleagues. We saw a lot of fish, coral, and other marine life. A truly fantastic week! We'll definitely be back with my friends from Euro-Diving International in Valkenswaard. Thanks again for taking such good care of us!
