Your excellent wet centre, special staff Paul, Emma, Ray, Ines, Ben and Andy who do more beyond any expections of a 1st class organization. Madge did u know your staff are all bonkers??
We also met some old time buddies …Speedy, Dave G and Irish Jerry all of whom we have had the pleasure of diving with over the past few years. Hope Bea & James achieve their dreams of Dive Master.

I had a wonderful diving vacation in Tenerife (Canary Islands) recently from May 29 - June 6. I had researched some dive centers in advance and chose Aqua Marina Oxygène. It is a PADI 5 Star Dive Center. The facilities and equipment are fantastic. The staff is extremely professional, knowledgeable, courteous, and above all fun and friendly and made my experience the best to date.
I specifically went there for five specialties: Deep Diver, Multilevel Diver, Peak Performance Buoyancy, Digital Underwater Photographer, and Underwater Navigation. My instructors, Andy, Ben, and Paul are really masters at their craft. I learned a tremendous amount from them and gained many new skills and experiences. I just wish I had more time to spend with the other team members--Madge, Emma, Ines, Carl, Ray.
I intend to get the Divemaster certification this year and Aqua Marina Oxygène is at the top of my list. The dive center is in an ideal location with lots of hotels, restaurants, etc. Two thumbs up for sure for my friends at Aqua Marina.
Thanks a million and see you soon.

Got back to the (sunny!) U.K. on Wednesday after a week diving from your shop and now starting to recover. 9 dives in five days is probably pretty close to my limit. It's only when you stop you start to feel it. Lugging that petrol tanker sized 18ltr 'bullet' tank around probably didn't help - but that will teach me to stop gulping air down like a dehydrated Scottish alcoholic. If I could have dived more with you, I would have. Sub-sea Tenerife is completely addictive and I pity the thousands of land-lubbers who return home impoverished each week for having seen none of it.
The dive sites are intoxicatingly beautiful and your kit, the ribs and staff are top notch. Aside from the sheer enjoyment, I learned loads which will, hopefully, improve my diving in the future. Things like; I genuinely enjoy the 'Gentle Art of Sinking' rather than 'Hovering on the Line' for seven minutes on the dive down. (Only joking Wayne!).
Many thanks to Andy, 'Chillax', Ines and Ben. But extra special thanks to Emma who was my dive guide for most of the week. What a gem! Who else could make up a dive sign for 'cleaning station' or give such excellent pre-dive briefings that one the guys wanted to log the briefing?
The turtles are extraordinary but I think my heart lies at 'Palm Mar Cave'. The first time I dived there it stunned and frankly scared me. This time I was able to relax and quietly drink in the sheer majesty of that site. It is sublime.
When I'm next on the island I look forward to diving with you again. I wouldn't even think of trying another dive shop. Have a great summer season - and work that intern until his pips squeak! (It's only sheer jealousy, James).
Take care and dive safe,
Jim Andrews

Dear all!
We are back home again with a huge bag full of great memories - more than we expected, to be honest: Having enjoyed an outstanding, relaxed atmosphere due to your friendly and competent staff - and of course lots of brilliant dives!
Thank you all for this remarkably pleasant week we could share with you.

Hi Guys
Arrived home safe and sound. I had a great time diving with you guys and the friendly banter was all good fun. Having not been in the water for over two years, i was a bit apprehensive but time with Andy soon put me at ease, he was very patient and i soon remembered all i was taught. As for my second dive , again i was a little unsure but this time Ray came to my rescue.
Thanks for a memorable time and i will not hesitate to dive with you again on my next holiday to Tenerife

Hello Boys and Girls
Thanks again for another marvellous time at Aqua-Marina. Missing you guys already! Not sure when I'll be back on the island but rest assured I'll be straight down there when I am. Not got an offer on my flat yet but when I do I'll be off on my travels so if any of you want to keep track of the adventures of "THE SHIRT" then please look me up on facebook (I'm on Emmas friend list).
Good luck to Neil on his Norway move and to all the guys on the course lugging tanks about in the hot sun :-). Have fun people.
All the best, Martin :-) x

Hi Guys,
Thank you for reminding me what I've been missing for the last 5 years, from my recent 3 dives with yourselves from the check dive of the beach with Emma seeing the really big stingray, to Neptune's cave with all the glass eyes and big puffer fish, finishing with the last dive at El Peurtito with the Turtles only 1 to begin with but then the other 2 appeared later great to be able to interact with them and watch the big one trying to eat the bubbles.
You run a really fun and friendly dive centre and I will definitely be back when in Tenerife next and will recommend you to friends who are going to Tenerife this year.
Hope to see you all soon

Hi Guys,
Just a quick e-mail to say how much I enjoyed my recent visit to the Aqua Marina Dive Centre. I only did two dive back in March but found the whole experience great. The professionalise and friendliness of the whole team made the visit superb. I did not have any of my own kit with me, but the equipment provided was first class along with the other facilities like showers etc.
I would not hesitate to return to Aqua Marina, and intend to do so in the near future.
Thanks again for a great all round dive experience.
Regards, Alan Sheppey
